Justin — Mon, 16 May 2011 07:00:17 +0000

UPDATE: I’m no longer teaching at KUNST-STOFF arts. See my yoga page for a current schedule, which includes Saturday and Sunday class at 11am, at The Loft SF (aka: The Yoga Loft).

Come out to this morning class at the new KUNST-STOFF arts space, located at 1 Grove St. near the Civic Center BART station.

Monday & Wednesday, 10am at KUNST-STOFF arts (click for more info)

Start your week with this energizing practice designed to mobilize the body and quiet the mind. For dancers and non-dancers alike, this class is traditionally based and will incorporate freeform and structured movement that will ensure you’re safely warmed, worked, envigorated and rested. Beginners welcome.

Ensemble Improvisation for Performance

Weekly sessions will provide structure and practice in improvisation, and will develop perceptual skills crucial to ensemble performance.

Through experimentation, dialogue and guided exercises, dancers will investigate the impact of actively seeing and hearing while moving.

Classes will emphasize:

Noticing the impact of “feeling” states in performance.
Recognizing ones personal, choreographic “ethic”.
The use of choice in creating a collaborative Instant Composition.

Open to dancers from all disciplines.

When:

beginning Wed July 4th
continuing weekly

7-9pm

Where:

Stage 7 School of Dance
3980 30th St., North Park

Drop-ins welcome but continued attendance is encouraged.

"Movement is produced by the rapport of odd elements, of the contrasts of colors between themselves which constitutes Reality." -Robert Delaunay

Yoga for Dancers

When:

beginning Tuesday July 3rd
continuing weekly

10-11:30am

Where:

Stage 7 School of Dance

Through the practice of Asana and the coordination of intention, breath and movement, we will balance strength and suppleness in our form while cultivating a non-judgmental attitude toward the body.

Movement analysis @ MTD

Justin — Wed, 19 Apr 2006 18:36:37 +0000

Recently I took over for Vincent Cacialano‘s movement analysis class in the Modern Theater Department at the AHK Theaterschool, Amsterdam. As an assignment the students each created a simple choreography and then used anatomical terms to describe the movement of the bones and major joints.
