WALKING TOGETHER
During this special time together we will play with our focus; feet first. We will estabalish our vertical connection with Earth - then explore our horizontal axis and how we can walk and play in tune with one another.
Our feet touch the ground whenever we're standing, walking or running. They are extensions of the legs which extend from the core, they help move us. But our feet are much more than that. After all, they are the foundation of our body. Understanding and developing our awareness of our feet can improve all other movements that our body desires to create.
We will:
·Use Ballet and Contemporary exercises to strengthen the intricate muscles of our feet.
·Practice footwork from different Brazilian dance techniques such as; samba, bolero, forro as cross-training
·Increase our receptivity with body-awareness exercises
·Explore contact improvisation techniques that can be translated into zouk
Then reflect it all into our connection in frame with others, Exploring our musicality, dynamics, intentions and our ability to break patrons and move forward with confidence and joy!
# The way you relate to your feet and the ground reflects to your whole body. So Love them! s2
# Reflexology can increase the sensibility and awareness.
Happy Feet = Happy Life
About Lunna Gomes
Originally from Brazil, she started her development as an Independent artist, exploring different movement techniques. Her background is composed of ballet, hip hop, jazz, contemporary, and zouk, amongst other dance forms. While living in Brazil, Lunna performed with multiple well known contemporary companies. From there, the urge to evolve as a human being lead her to explore a different country: New York. While continuing to expand as an independent artist, she has been studying deeply what every community has to teach us, and uncovered a passion: fusing and combining everything that she loves, bringing it back to the comfortable space of being One. The mix of styles open the spectrum of possibilities with every movement, finding the singular source, filling our bodies with the pleasure of moving. Teaching for more than 10 years, Lunna has a gentle touch to connect body and soul, while developing the awareness of being intentional and honest with each choice, generating Self care and love.
