Sound Flow: Space and Resonance

LIMITED

Thursday June 25, 2026 11:45am - 1:15pm EDT

Limited Capacity seats available

This class adds vocalizations to a gentle movement sequence to encourage sensory and spatial awareness. We begin in semi-supine, using the floor and Alexander directions to support small movements of the arms and legs from a sense of the whole body. Simple vocalizations are then added to vibrate and resonate the spaces we discover from the inside out. Putting in pauses to release habits or judgement, we will increase our stamina of attention through more complex movements and sounds while sitting, all fours, and finally standing. This class can be an excellent warmup for voice study or as a daily movement calibration, as the relative ease of vocalization and movement indicates ease in the body.
