'The body is not a set entity. It constantly changes, like the weather.' - Min Tanaka, founder of BodyWeather

Let's plunge into exploring our bodies and how they change... share space and play together, ride on each other's energy waves and learn from each other's observations to enable our individual and collective flows to move together.

This block of six 2-hour weekly Wednesday classes will be led by Tess de Quincey, renowned solo dancer, choreographer of De Quincey Co dance-performances and research.

You can drop in as a casual attendee or get a discounted 6-pack with full-block bookings.
