In this class, sarAika will share their discoveries and analysis of the use of the body through a warm-up that focuses on increasing the space of the joints while stretching. Followed by exercises that contain floor work foundation & guided choreography which leads to fluid and dynamic movements. sarAika in this class aims to introduce diverse ways to use the body in space and new awareness of approach of movements in our bodies, applying joints fluidity allowing to dance wider and in your organic way.
