About the classes:
Jeremy Nelson’s classes are influenced by his 20 years of
continuing study in the work of Barbara Mahler and Susan Klein,
and by more recent studies in Alexander Technique, Contact Improvisation
and Bodymind Centering. The focus of the class is to integrate this
investigation and alignment work into a more formally structured
technique class. We begin with a warm-up which focuses mostly on
our skeletal structure to access the deep supporting muscles of
the body, allowing mobility and suppleness in the superficial muscles;
and emphasizes the connection to and use of the floor. The class
builds from simple exercises to phrases of movement that involve
moving boldly and dynamically.
Any interested people who can't come or where the classes are too
full will be added to the list for classes to be held next year.
