Free-Spirited Harmonious Movement

The focus of tonight’s class is infusing the movement of our upper extremities with the energies of Aikido and Duncan Dance. Combined, these become free-spirited harmonious movement.

The energy of Aikido is the dance of harmony and elegance.
The energy of Duncan Dance is free-spirited and graceful.

When the two merge, we have the dance of harmonious, elegant, graceful, free-spirited, playful, uninhibited and honest full-body expression.

We play with circles, spirals, and spontaneous movement.  We not only blend with the space but we converse with it using our bodies.

What these two movements forms have in common is harmony. We allow our hands, finger, wrist, arm, shoulder, and chest movements to originate from this place of harmony and joy.

Open your imagination and join me for class tonight from 5:30pm – 6:30pm at Open Flight Studio in the University District.

Freedom and Spontaneity

The focus of tonight’s class is movement with the energy of Duncan Dance.

The essence of Duncan Dance is freedom and spontaneity through movement. The energy of this movement form in Nia is imaginative, uplifting and heart opening. It is the joy of expressing your spirit in your own unique way. I find this movement form the most liberating and fun. It’s my personal favorite.

Let your soul and body experience freedom with childlike curiosity and expression!

Bring your playful, creative dreaming self to class from 5:30pm – 6:30pm at Open Flight Studio in the University District.

Grab Your Imaginary Scarf


The focus of tonight’s class is using the energy of Duncan Dance to move in free-spirited ways that integrates honest, authentic, graceful and beautiful full-body joyful expression.

Duncan Dance is movement from the Soul. It is childlike, playful, spontaneous, natural, harmonious and filled with curiosity and magic.

I mentioned earlier this week that all of my February classes would focus on Love. In that Spirit, tonight we will be invited to move with spontaneity in our hearts.

Grab your imaginary scarf and join me on the dance floor.

Class from 6:30pm - 7:30pm at Fresh Fitness and Dance in Wallingford.
