Exploratory Movement is an experiential and exploratory movement class that offers a space for self-exploration and reflection. It focuses on providing an opportunity to deepen the mind-body connection, self-care in movement, as well as recognition through movement dynamics and verbalization. This class will include a 10-min verbal check-in where participants can share verbally how they are feeling, how they find themselves arriving at the class, and their body's needs, the expression is open and participants are encouraged to share but participation is completely voluntary. Then the group will engage in a 5-minute warm-up activity followed by a 25-min guided movement dynamic. This movement dynamic will consist of the free improvised movement led by prompts, imagery, and guided support. This class will focus on deepening the mind-body connection, recognizing body sensations, and self-exploration. After the movement dynamic, there will be a 10-15 min check-out where participants can again share their experiences, how they are feeling, and recognitions during their movement, all of which are encouraged and voluntary.
