Elastic Recoil Potentials
the body's principle support structure is the ubiquitous fascial web that interconnects every bone, muscle and organ through elastic fibres and enveloping tubes and pouches. As this ingeniously complex matrix moves, it stretches and pulls, generating kinetic energy and reducing the need for muscular effort. In this class we study the unique properties of this fundamental locomotion instrument, learn its anatomical composition and work specifically with the energy it produces for movement. Subtle and challenging movement material will be offered as a research basis in both set and improvised formats.
