Workshops & Classes

Modern Dance (ongoing)

Mondays 7:30-9:00pm

Level:  Open taught by Valerie

Single Class: $15

This class highlights movement that follows the logic of the body’s innate spirals and bone rhythms. The beginning of class starts with a series of floor exercises designed to awaken the feet, spine, center and pelvis.  Standing center work focuses on proper alignment to support technical exercises that strengthen and train the body to execute healthy, organized, and clear  movement.   The class culminates in rhythmical, full-bodied across the floor movement combinations that incorporate the use of turns, jumps, working in  and out of the floor, detailed gestures, and diverse dynamics. Steps and phrases are broken down so that students can enjoy moving and being comfortable within their own dancing body.  Participants will gain the ability to move quickly with efficient ease, as well as move slow with a strong intent. In addition we work on developing expressive movement with a dramatic purpose, connecting an inner emotional state through physicality.

Juliana’s yoga classes aim to build dynamic awareness of body alignment, breath and energy. Juliana received her certification in Hatha Yoga in 2005, however her love of movement and flow brings a Vinyasa influence into her class. She usually begins with a short meditation and setting of intention, and builds from there with rhythm and playfulness. Juliana believes in movement as a healing and exploration tool, and in creating a safe and open environment for students of all levels, body types as well as people working with injuries or challenges.

The Creative Movement for Children classes at Green Space allow for a safe and nurturing community where children will enjoy discovering the exciting world of movement and dance! Each 45 minute class is built around the development of cognitive and social, as well as physical skills. As they investigate how they move, boys and girls will develop confidence and learn to work together. We will explore balance, coordination, and comprehension, as well as listening skills and class etiquette. Creativity will be fostered through the use of imagery, music, stories, and colorful props. The dance studio will become a playground where we explore, learn, and create.

Moms- Take five! Classes are just for the kids!
