From this comes the potential for students to discover a range of intelligence in their dancing, as well as to help them discover and develop their own choreographic vision. Initially inspired by the work of pioneer kinesiologist Dorothy Vislcoky, and then continuing for upwards of 20 years with Susan Klein, Barbara Mahler has learned to see, feel and teach each person/body individually to help their body function at its highest level of efficiency and function. Contact Improvisation Charlie Mosey teaches for the month of July. February 7 – July 25 WED 6:45 – 9:10pm Cathy Weis Studio Contact Improvisation is a partnering dance form. Skills such as rolling, releasing, giving and supporting weight, expanding range of spatial concentration, lifting, catching and falling help one move with and through gravity, share weight in motion and use momentum and flow in physical contact. These weekly classes, open to adults of all levels of movement experience, are informed variously by the individual teaching artists. summer MELT 2007 > click here for detailed info July 9 – August 10, 2007 5 weeks of intensive workshops with internationally acclaimed faculty in Technique, Improvisation, Composition and Releasing.
