An Axis Syllabus inspired dance class Led by Nuria Bowart, a teacher of the Axis Syllabus, Capoeira, and generally fun and useful movement patterns. In this class we will practice going in and out of the floor. Learning about the biomechanics of the body, and then moving our stories. Within its very design the body will suggest effective and efficient pathways for motion. The Axis Syllabus can be useful in helping the cultivation of awareness about the body that is functional. This class is for all levels of mover. Nuria also works as a performer and Rolfer.

Rewilding Alignment: Dancing the Axis Syllabus
Fridays 10a - 11:30a
Finnish Hall - 1970 Chestnut @ University, Berkeley
$12 - $20
Classes aim to empower individuals by deepening anatomical knowledge, structural integrity, kinetic conservation, and proprioceptive activation. By attuning through exploration of form and function we expand our capacity for creative articulation as movers. Facilitated embodied inquiry and choreography will be grounded in principles of the intelligent design of our bodies, fostering dynamic possibilities and delight in your dancing. Movement training is life training. Sarah is a Certified Axis Syllabus Teacher, interdisciplinary artist, and bodywork professional. She currently teaches A.S. classes through contemporary dance and embodiment training.
