Somatic Contemporary Ballet with Seyong Kim

Somatic Contemporary Ballet is an inclusive, somatic, and holistic approach to ballet instruction that integrates the principles of Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) and Bartenieff Fundamentals (BF). This comprehensive class is designed to enhance participants’ understanding of their individual physicality while exploring fundamental kinesthetic concepts such as body connectivity, dimensional quality, spatial intent, and somatic awareness. Participants are encouraged to cultivate an ongoing curiosity about movement and to embark on a journey of self-discovery. This class not only enhances technical proficiency but also nurtures a deeper, more nuanced understanding of one’s physical capabilities and expressive potential.
