LIQUID MOTION WITH JENIFFER JANOVER

April 28th, 2012
3:15pm-4:45pm
$25 Liquid Motion
1.5 hour workshop
Liquid motion: Is a non-trick based pole workshop. It is the fundamentals of each individual’s body movement.  It is sensual movement to help gain anunderstanding of how your body moves and the exploration of movement with music without learning specific choreography or tricks. It gets the students out of the idea of that “follow the leader instruction” and teaches them to let their body be their guide to find sensual movement from within. During the 1:30 min workshop students will ...
  1. Learn a general break down of body alignment to help you reach your most sexy potential.
  2. Learn to look at music from a more movement based mentality, not a dance one.
  3. Remember how to embrace your raw sensuality in a society that is so terrified of it and ashamed of it.
  4. Learn how to love how you move around YOUR pole.
Through the floor, the wall and of course the pole you will learn that fluid movement is everywhere if you are willing to embrace it and push the limits of your familiar movement and movements that you think you already know.
Liquid reminds you to love your sexy and make it yours.
“its more than just pole TRICKS”
 
Please note: Students should bring knee pads; limited knee pads will be available.
