With Dennis Leri and Carol Kress

Journey To Sitting marks the fourth installment in Dennis and Carol's deep exploration of Awareness Through Movement in their Mid-Summer's Dream Intensive series. All of the lessons in this five-day course relate to the development of comfortable, dynamic sitting.

You will intimately explore, from multiple perspectives, the movements and shapes that form a trajectory toward the function of sitting. The diversity of lessons developing from various positions and relationships to gravity stimulate curiosity and a potent sense of self-determination in action. The benefits from this workshop's lessons are plentiful and indispensable to those of us who long for more comfort, vitality and versatile power in sitting.
