In this class we will get to explore the hallmark principles of José Limón’s style: breath and its effect on movement; gravity and the play between resisting and succumbing to that force; the physics of opposition, momentum, and inertia and how these can bring efficiency, power, and drama to our movement; complex rhythmic and textural dynamics; the intertwining of form and freedom; and through all of this, our unique ability as movers to express our individuality as well as our common humanity.
