I have been training as a Freedom Dance Teacher with Bodie Nick Hunt and Alex Svoboda. As part of my training I need to do a practice teaching class which will be supervised by Bodie.
You are invited to book for just £10. I will use your fee to pay for the studio. Any profits will be donated to Loving Men+ for their bursary fund.
Freedom Dance is a Conscious Movement Dance practice. It is a meditation dance practice without choreography. We dance bare foot with loose clothing. Socks can be worn or specific dance shoes but not outdoor shoes.
We start by warming the body up and beginning with gently finding our own movement in the first section which we call ‘OPENING’. Here we may use the exploration of body parts, exploring the space available or the gift of partnering other dancers as we find our own movement practice.
The pace accelerates into ‘TRANSFORMATION’. Here we move towards full activation within what is safe and comfortable for our bodies. This is a place to shake things out and feel into our edges.
The music relaxes a little in pace as we move into ‘FREEDOM’. Here we aspire to let the body dance us as we pass through a portal into whatever is our free expression in the moment. As the dance comes to an end the music slows as we ground and come back to stillness on the floor.
There will be a moment for verbal reflection as we sit in a circle to close.
I am a musician and will aim to provide music that is both enlivening, playful and a little unfamiliar!
