Ignite Knowing, Dancing for Every Body: The Study of Contemplative Dance

Sourced in the practices of sitting and walking mindfulness meditation, contemplative dance finds the dance every body knows. We sit, move, write—investigating the mind-body landscape. Alone and together we learn the spontaneous delights within stillness, and in any moment. Through deep play we ignite the many layers of knowing and explore the boundaries between our art, meditation and ordinary life. Some previous experience in meditation/ dance helpful. This class is open to sophomores and above. Cross-listed as PFAR 375.
