“Shaking Class”
Group Shake —A Unique Movement Class
Wednesday, December 11, 6:30 pm.
This one hour “Shaking” movement class will be led by dancer Sophie Teachout. “Shaking” is a fun, exploratory movement that boosts physical and mental wellness. All physical abilities can do this workshop—each person controls their desired level of exertion.
Still not sure what a group shake is? Sophie’s writes:
“A Group Shake is a durational practice in which participants gather to shake together for a set amount of time. Shaking can relieve stress, depend mind-body connection, increase circulation, activate the lymphatic system, and allow for emotional release. It is an accessible, adaptable practice for people of all ages and abilities: you can at any speed, any intensity, in any part of the body. We will shake together for one hour, with time for a talk-through at the beginning, and settling and reflection at the end.”
Donations accepted. No registration required. More info HERE.
