Testimonials
“Taking Up, Down, and Around is special. As we warm up, I become immersed in Sydney's imagery, moving through uncharted pathways that I can make my own. Then she takes us on a ride that portals between ballet technique and floor work choreography and this, to me, is the heart of the class. For me it’s like one second I'm swimming and the next I'm holding myself up like I'm walking on a tightrope. Personally, this struggle and friction that emerges from the jarring transition is where I learn the most about organizing my body when I dance. Overall Im pushed in more ways than one. Afterwards, I always feel compelled to be a little bit more open about technique than I do when I walked in.”
“For me, Up, down, and around is a joyous, curious, and beautiful celebration of the body and dance movement! The blend of reiki, contemporary, and ballet feels intuitive and all intersect through Sydney's prompt of "movement as medicine". I have a limited dance background and this class challenges me in ways that are exciting and thought-provoking. Sydney is a wonderful facilitator and cultivates a space that feels safe and warm. I love this class, the freedom it gives me to play, and the questions it asks!”
Reiki Infused Movement
Reiki Infused Movement Class is an open level improvisation class, meaning any or no training. All are welcome to move their body freely without judgment or fear of "keeping up". This class can be looked at as a body meditation class where we’ll be prompted with different images, sensations, and general movement tasks to interpret in our own unique way. We start with our eyes closed and try to avoid seeing our image in hopes of drawing our attention to how the body feels while moving intentionally and dynamically.
Using the chakra system as a movement score, we investigate the properties and functions of each of the seven chakras (energy centers in the body) through physical interpretation. Having a blockage in a particular chakra is like a stone in a stream, it is blocking the free flowing movement of energy in the body. Through intention, focus, and guided movement tasks our goal is to open blocked chakras. I am a certified Okuden Level II Reiki Practitioner, interested in exploring how reiki can influence movement and vice versa. Join me in playing where these two worlds collide.
This class is a time for you to feel embodied and empowered.
