Join Lanesboro Artist-in-Residence, Alys Ayumi Ogura, for a free, beginner-friendly, gentle movement workshop on Thursday, September 4 from 6:00-8:00pm at the St. Mane Theatre.
This will be a gentle and playful movement workshop designed for those who want to cultivate awareness of standing and sitting postures and learn how gravity can support more natural movement. No prior dance experience is required, and the workshop is not intended to be vigorous exercise. Depending on the weather and comfort of participants, the workshop will move from the St. Mane Theatre Stage to Gateway Park.
The workshop will incorporate elements from modern dance and Yoga to help participants feel refreshed. Depending on interests, the workshop may also explore some movement improvisation.
Please bring a water bottle and a mat if you wish, and wear comfortable clothing. The workshop may conclude the class with Savasana (corpse pose) to help quiet the mind, though this is optional.
