The Positive Motion dance classes are focused on the art and technique of modern dance, with an emphasis on adapting each exercise for the individual dancer’s abilities while maintaining the integrity of the movement. Each class begins with simple stretching movements designed to facilitate the warming of the muscles and to mentally prepare the student. The class continues, gradually increasing in difficulty and complexity, incorporating traveling, turns, reaches and drops, all created to increase the movement possibilities for the student. For the student who has a greater level of disability, one-on-one partnering is utilized.
