Sonia Rodríguez
Spiral Motion ( Laripse ). Cia Sonia Rodríguez
Beginning with tuning into the body, Sonia will introduce specific exercises designed to engage the muscles and release excess tension through the use of the breath. Refined articulations will be explored in the centre, followed by extended combinations to emphasize the development of kinetic awareness and the use of muscular opposition to facilitate flexibility into, out of and off the floor. The class will finish with more complex phrases combining different energetic qualities, different levels, working our presence and material from Sonia’s company repertoire.
