What happens when our world is turned upside
down? All of us, at different times, face huge and challenging
changes in our lives. The media make it evident that natural
and other disasters are increasing exponentially. How do we survive disaster,
natural or personal? Our new dance/poetry piece seeks to answer that
question. "Survive & Rescue" combines poetry, movement and music, involves five dancers and will be
performed the last two weeks in May.

Awareness Through Movement lessons are ingenious, gentle movement sequences designed to bring mobility, ease and efficiency to all forms of physical activity, through heightened awareness of how the body – and mind – can function together as an integrated whole. “After just a few moments of the Feldenkrais exercises, people often find themselves, as if by magic, easily doing things with their bodies that they never thought possible.” New Age Magazine
