Putting The D Back in Dancing!
We will use the vocabulary of yoga to access movement possibilities within the body. The design of class explores traditional yoga postures, improvisation with specific physical structures and culminates in set phrase material. This is a high volume class meant to get your ass moving with clarity and conviction. Inherent in the quest for technique is the question of agency and this class will address how you approach class; are you a passive or performative participant and how does such an affiliation change the dynamic of your classroom dancing and your dancing in general?
Sri Louise is an internationally acclaimed yoga teacher who has been devoted to her yoga practice for the last 16 years and subsequently brings to her class a unique expertise derived from rigorous and sustained, intimate research. Her forte is in her understanding of alignment, which she sees as being fostered on many levels; physical, psychological, ethical and ontological. Since 1999, Sri has been committed to an unbroken teaching tradition in India and is the disciple of Swami Dayananda Saraswati under whose tutelage she studies Vedanta and Vaidika dharma. In 2001, Sri created The Underground Yoga Parlour for Self-Knowledge and Social Justice in San Francisco, where in addition to on-going asana classes and community organizing, she designed and continues to conduct, yoga teacher training programs that promote the understanding of the self as asserted by the Upanisads. Sri Louise does not have a separate ethics for her life as a dancer. Sri worked in europe with Sidi Larbi Cherkoui in a variety of capacities; physical coach, choreographic assistant and performer/co-creator in Myth. She is now channeling her artistic efforts into her own creative projects and is increasingly becoming an advocate for dancer rights out of personal and professional necessity.
