Event information

FAMO Fascia Movement and expandance workshop shares features with yoga, Pilates, and other body-minded practices in the warm up. Initially participants are barefoot, performing exercises on a mat with awareness and clear intention while deliberately incorporating the breath, which plays a central role. It will focus on fascia—your body’s most influential connective tissue system. We will enhance postural ease, movement freedom, and vitality while cultivating inner ease through deliberate movement sequences and self-massages, you will improve limberness and strength. Following on the expandance technique portion of the workshop is part meditation, part mindful movement, and part dance improvisation. An opportunity to move without judgment, to dance from pure excitement and to embrace the creativity of your own body. For each student to dance the dance that his/her body already wants to dance, choreographing from the inside out.
