M O V E M E N T - the perceptual ability to experience kinesthetic sensation. Do what the body wants. Observing sensations throughout the entire body and participating with movement. From the center of the room to the periphery and then anywhere. Exploring specific places on the body: Using a Yoga Nidra body mapping as a kind of performance score.


Noticing the building awareness and focus on isolating and listening to kinesthetic sensation. You must be grounded and present to bridge the internal experience with external expression. To be mindful. At one point in our development it became loud and fast and the awareness went away, but then came back. Then we were able to more gradually support the awareness as we arced back into louder and faster movement.

"As an improviser it hard to stay mindful of my kinesthetic when I am paying attention to composition. If everyone is present and mindful though, the composition comes naturally."

Peaks and Valleys: An organic Arc. We used local violinist Antony Salvo's Album, thank you. and the MOSS. I love the MOSS.


TRUST. Some of which is articulated with my previous post, but I further understood the capaibilities with a space where individuals allow time to expand, and patiently wait for the success and progress of the session. Rather than rushing to fill the short two hours with as much exploration as possibly, it is about learning to see and hear whatever that day that time those bodies need in the now. A bit of quality versus quantity.

Rainforests. echoes with voice. Molecules. Opening and Closing. Shifting the weight. Silk. Mud. Soft Sand. Circles. 4 women. 1 man. 3 and 2. 2 and 3. 2 and 2 and 1.

We miss the game changer.
