These classes will look at the application of BMC into dancing through investigations into body systems (skeletal, organ, muscle, nerve, fluid, cells) and repatterning (developmental/evolution) with an emphasis based on each of the students' individual interests and questions. We will learn basic anatomy and physiology, getting familiar with the interior of our bodies and ideas and find pathways to the exterior of space, time and place through improvisational scores that allows us to both witness and participate. ALL LEVELS OF EXPERIENCE WELCOME.

The instructor, Michael Fayne , Ph.D., is a licensed clinical psychologist with formal training as a meditation teacher at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and over 30 years' personal meditation experience. This meditation program, developed over 25 years ago by the Center for Mindfulness at the UMass Medical School, has been shown to be highly beneficial as a companion treatment for a wide range of medical and psychological issues, including chronic pain, dermatological problems, anxiety, depression, overeating, life adjustment issues and the general gamut of life stressors. It's also a powerful health-promoting practice for the "well" population, leading to increased energy, greater stability and clarity of thought in challenging situations, and a deepened sense of well-being.
