MotionArt Adult Modern Dance Classes

MotionArt’s mission is to share the art of dance and the joy of movement with people of all ages and abilities. We strive to enrich lives by fostering creativity, body awareness and self-expression in a fun, non-competitive, welcoming environment. We offer ongoing dance classes in-studio, on Zoom and outside (weather permitting).

Paying the regular rate helps keep our organization afloat; however, no one will be turned away for inability to pay. There is also an option to pay what you can. Please go to motionartmn.org to sign up for classes, or contact Pam Gleason for info.

FELDENKRAIS® Classes with Krista Langberg and Jeffrey Wells

FELDENKRAIS®: Last summer class this Friday – check it out!
Weekly classes on Monday and Friday will begin again on Friday, September 9.
Krista Langberg and Jeffrey Wells teach alternating weeks.

Friday morning, 9:00-10:00am

Cost per class is a suggested range of $10-$25. No one turned away for lack of funds.

The Feldenkrais Method® is based on principles of physics, biomechanics, and an empirical understanding of learning and human development. Moshe Feldenkrais said, “We move according to our perceived self-image.” By expanding your perception and increasing awareness, you will become more aware of your habits and tensions and develop new ways of moving. By increasing sensitivity, the Feldenkrais Method assists you to live your life more fully, efficiently, and comfortably.
