Skinner Releasing Technique (SRT) is a gentle but powerful system of movement training that encourages a deepened sensory and imaginative awareness of the body.  It teaches the fundamental movement skills and psycho-physical awareness that underlie almost any style of dance.  In this class, we touch, imagery and improvised movement to develop agility in stepping and travelling, and different ways of cultivating a sense of suspension without rigidity.  For more information about SRT, see www.skinerreleasing.com
