Kira Kirsch
Somatic Synchrony
Saturday
13:00 - 14:30
CATEGORY
FORMAT (workshop / performance / talk etc.
LOCATION
EVENT DESCRIPTION
Dancing together is as old as human history. Stepping to the same beat, aligning spatially and physically is described as a joint recruitment of motor and perceptual systems that blurs the self with another and increases cooperation. In this class we will use tools from the Axis Syllabus to explore the values and comfort of synchrony paired with autonomy via deep introspection into one’s individual anatomy and personal rhythms. (synchrony=rhythmic behaviour between individuals)
