Moving Through Nature
Exploring your movement capacity in the natural world.

Develop your balance, proprioception, and connection to your environment while learning to evaluate and improve the capacity of your body to move.

We will learn techniques to explore the objects in nature around us as we learn to move over, under and around them in new ways.

We will explore our sense of play as we learn how to safely experiment with movement.

Groove
The ultimate movement medicine!
This "all levels" GROOVE class is for everybody (adults), especially those holding onto the belief that they 'can't' dance.

Dancing might be easier than you imagined - it's just fancy walking after all!

This is a beginners GROOVE class with no fancy choreography or steps to remember.

The simplest dance class in the world. It's a bit like magic.

Getting Strong Without a Gym
In this class we will examine exercises and techniques to build functional strength without all the machines and gear companies try to say you need.

We will look at developing mobility as well as full-body strength with progressions to adapt movements to your body's current capacity.

In addition to learning proper body mechanics to maintain form, we will discuss working towards strength goals, avoiding injury, and making your training fun.
