This workshop will introduce students to the LMA approach, developed by Rudolph Laban, that focuses on experiencing and perceiving changes in Body, Effort, Shape, and Space – basic elemental building blocks to all our movement. Students will learn to use a clear language for speaking about movement in movement terms (as opposed to psychological or sociological terms), and will be encouraged to personally claim their own context for meaning making, i.e. interpretation.Understanding between humans cannot happen until we are able to claim our own values and ways of moving into action, and appreciate how these are similar to, or different from those of others. These values are being constantly expressed in our movement, such that each of us has a unique LMA Movement Signature. Each of us can be valued for our own uniqueness in order for us to contribute to the world effectively. LMA helps us to look at where our own style of movement fits into the broader range of human movement; how we can accept where we (and others) are; and how we can broaden our range. (This course meets the Laban/Bartenieff Certification Program pre-requisite.)
Cost: $225Please note there is a $10 service fee (totals to $235) for registering through MindBody Online here.
