Marie’s approach brings particular attention to embodiment, floor work, fluidity, relationality, presence and how gravity moves us and moves through us.

Grounding the practice in technicality, contact improvisation and somatic awareness, this class will navigate between embodied explorations and technical phrases.

While starting with guided explorations, we tune into the perceptual and sensory body. The class then builds up towards integrating higher physicality and precision while engaging with the group.

Each class will offer a different focus and entry point
