Artist in Residence: Dance for Every Body

  • Senior Friendship Center 1888 Brother Geenen Way Sarasota, FL, 34236 United States (map)

Dance for Every Body

Intended for ages 50+, this movement jam/dance class embraces the ideas that each individual has a unique and powerful contribution to make, and that our bodies are a powerful source of agency. No prior dance experience is needed. The goal of this program is for "every body" to find their level of challenge and comfort and partake according to their abilities, and to appreciate the groups’ diversity as an attribute to their community. Participants explore Urban Bush Women’s technique with close attention to the use of breath, weight, call and response, and polyrhythm.
