BODY ARCHITECTURE: Introduction to Structural Relationship Assessment - SATURDAY 25 AUGUST 2012

TOPIC: BODY ARCHITECTURE: Introduction to Structural Relationship Assessment

DATE: Saturday 25 August 2012

TIME: 1.00pm - 5.00pm (4 CEC's)

VENUE: Estudio Nuevo/Dance & Movement Centre, 3/206 Whatley Crescent, Marylands WA

PRESENTERS: Karin Sharp-Gurtner

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:

The body is in a state of constant change and posture the visible expression of our functional, structural and emotional patterns. In this workshop we will look at the body’s architecture and how each part is relating to others. We won’t be classifying people as a Sway Back or a Lordotic-Kyphotic postural type, instead we will look at structural relationships and how balance can be enhanced for the individual.

Perfect symmetry is only a concept. So rather than trying to achieve the impossible (and unavoidably fail), we will look at real possibilities and a person’s potential for change at the given time. Assessing a person’s body geometry is a craft that needs practice for mastery. You have to train your eye to see, your hands to recognise and your intuition to be trusted. This introductory workshop focuses on the visual skills, encouraging you to develop your other assessment skills from there.
