“DOWNSTRETCH”

SHOULD WE GO BRIGHT IN MOVEMENT STUDIOS AGAIN?

Throwback to a video shoot from 2021 — I opened a studio in Dubai. All of these women were true followers of the practice and I owe them so much. It was called Collective Movement, and our signature class was 60 to 75 minutes, always included breath, work and free movement in the beginning of class.

My aim was to encourage people to have the practice begin from a place of complete individuality so that no matter what your mindset or body was going through you had a moment to really set an intention. It was also important for me to give students the space to LEARN how to move independently.

When other studios were going dark + sexy, I went light + embodied. When ultra choreographed classes were on the rise, I went free ecstatic movement. You can say I’m a bit of an anarchist 😂

I love any movement that challenges me while moving my spine — Teaser variations are my favorite as they move the spine in flexion and extension in one swift moment. Thank you .studio Boris for hosting a classical workshop for students and teachers!

Whether you are teaching Mat, Reformer, Trampoline, Cycling…create the space to link the body and the breath and the mind will fall into its place, as an advisor but not the only guide.

🌍We are living in a time where we have to lead with embodied hearts, not only calculated minds.

🧟The brain has been hijacked by systemic oppression long before we came into our human bodies, and the breath will be our return home ✨
