Gravity Awaits: Embodied Movement with Brianna Grant
Join us for Gravity Awaits, a three-hour embodied exploration with movement teacher and acupuncturist Brianna Grant. Through somatics, intuitive movement, and the foundational principles of Contact Improvisation, this workshop invites you to rediscover your relationship with gravity, momentum, and connection.
As we shift into the quieter months of the year, this practice offers a grounding space to move, sense, play, and awaken the body’s innate intelligence.
✨ What to Expect:
-
Guided explorations in proprioception, ergonomic movement, and somatic awareness
-
Techniques for moving in and out of the floor with ease and fluidity
-
Spirals, weight sharing, and momentum-based partnering
-
Foundations of Contact Improvisation Dance
-
A supportive, playful environment open to all bodies and experience levels
These principles extend far beyond dance — offering insights into how we relate, communicate, and move through life with more presence and attunement.
