Many additional classes and events are held at MoveStudio on a "studio rental" basis. These events are not produced or managed by us, and therefore do not appear on our regular class schedule, but we want to share them with our community and promote these great opportunities and instructors.

Ecstatic Dance Dallasecstaticlogo
with Monica Blossom
3rd Sundays, 4-6p, $15

We are all, individually and collectively, in the midst of massive unprecedented change and transformation. And here we are dancing through it! How do we 'move' through major life change while attending to the full spectrum of authentic feelings that accompany it; grief, joy, anticipation, fear, trust, gratitude, regret, etc.? Ecstatic Dance is a form of active meditation or prayer where music from around the world, free-form self-guided movement and breath are used to shift brain wave patterns from the day-to-day busyness, to the more meditative and insightful alpha state. In this state you may easily access creative and expanded visions of your life and purpose. At the very least you'll release tension, touch authentic emotion and feel inspired. No experience required. If you have feet, a heartbeat, and a desire for more expansive freedom, connection and joy, just come move your body and dance your dance. More info at the Ecstatic Community meetup site.

with Jule Aguirre
Saturday, March 10-March 17

Everything begins with Principle #1 – The Joy of Movement.

This White Belt is the foundation for teaching and learning Nia. The principles of this belt focus on the physical realm of the body and learning how to sustain and increase sensation in the body for pleasure and self-healing. The Nia principles are explored through the lens of science, craft and the art of the body and movement. Students will be introduced to the nine movement forms of Nia: Jazz, Duncan, Modern, Aikido, Tai Chi, Tae Kwon Do, The Alexander Technique, The Work of Moshe Feldenkrais and Yoga. Nia's proprietary system for music appreciation is introduced at the White Belt along with all of the 52 moves of the Nia Technique.
