Festival Workshop
Dancing from the Inside-Out
with Lenna Rose
About this workshop
This workshop will explore different perspectives and modalities of experiencing dance, with a focus on embodied awareness of movement. The workshop will start with internal awareness and observation to support mental wellbeing and self- understanding. We will then broaden out to look at ways to manage nerves and stage fright through embodied awareness and conscious attention. This is a facilitated workshop which will utilise both movement and discussion. Jen has a Master's degree in Movement, Mind and Ecology, and uses a somatic awareness approach to teaching Pilates and movemet.
