About the event
During this class, we will explore the various movement tools derived from Traditional Shaolin Gong fu and modern Wushu Practices. Bringing these forms of Chinese martial arts forward through the free and elaborate structure of dance. After a gentle warmup, we will delve into principles of our breath, emphasizing grounding our roots, and engage in improvisation and set movement material.
Dance aims for softer physicality, making movements more available to change and allowing a broader range of movement qualities, using as little effort as possible. Gong fu facilitates the body in finding movement efficiency through repetition, strengthening the body where needed.'' This is a space where both worlds meet.
