This class aims to create a community around dance by exploring music, imagery, and narrative with movement. Through a combination of seated, standing, across-the-floor, and improvisational exercises, participants will be empowered to build strength and artistry. This is a gentle dance movement class with a focus on inclusivity for all levels, and is not designed to be rigorous or dance cardio. All exercises are easily modifiable, supporting any level of mobility and comfort. And as a creative and social outlet, this class offers an opportunity to discover (or rediscover) joy in movement. To participate virtually from home, all you need is access to a computer, a chair, and enough space around you to extend your limbs comfortably! Note these classes are open to Zakim Dance Study participants, in addition to other Zakim community members.

This program will be held meeting-style, meaning that you have the ability to see your fellow participants and they have the ability to see you if you turn your camera on. Please feel free to keep your camera off if you prefer to do so.

PLEASE NOTE: The instructor will ask you to input an emergency contact number in the Zoom chat when class starts. Your message will only be visible to the instructor and will only be used in case of emergency.
