Skinner Releasing Technique and state of being Movement practice incorporating principles of the Skinner Releasing technique as well as other related experiential movement strategies, scores, and systems. The Skinner Releasing Technique (SRT) is a dynamic approach to the cultivation of an articulate, flexible, and integrated physicality and state of being. Although it began as a dance practice, it’s process and aims are relevant to anyone engaged in activities that require articulation, strength, spontaneity, sensitivity, fluidity, stamina, and concentration. SRT is based on principles of economy of movement, multi-directional/multi-dimensional balance, with no assumption of a single fixed center of gravity. With an emphasis on releasing excess tension and tapping into one’s innate strength rather than force, the class includes the use of guided poetic imagery, and tactile and movement studies alone and with a partner. This workshop comprises the first week in the SRT Foundational training. Interview with DD Dorvillier www.corpus.net
