Moving Pages

Moving Pages is a communal experience for anyone who says, at any time, “I can’t dance.”  Its structure is made up of one part reading group, one part experiential anatomy and one part dance jam.  Through instruction and self directed exploration class is designed to engage your centers of language, imagination, visualization and sensation.  Sessions begin with a guided movement experience led by Jessica Marasa and close with music and an open jam form.  Each session exists independently of that which came before it, however it’s offered as a series to support your regular return to building confidence in your ability to change.
