Join us for MZD's upcoming class VIVUS/movement with James Viveiros!VIVUS/movement— a method based on concepts from theatre improvisation, contemporary and somatic dance practices, voice, yoga and stretching techniques that encourage each participant to awaken their body through new sensations. We will move
intuitively, in our own personal way, applying weight, speed, range of motion and flow of energy. This experience is an invitation to move without judgment, at one’s own pace, no approach being either right or wrong, allowing our sensations to guide us. Above all, we will seek pleasure, joy, power and release.
