Join Meshi Chavez for a dynamic, hour-long movement class that combines the joy of a dance party with the power of mindful exploration. This session is open to both dancers and non-dancers and offers a blend of free movement and guided instruction. You will explore your body’s natural rhythms through improvisational exercises and connect with others and the space around you.

Preparation:
- Wear comfortable clothing suitable for movement.
- Bring layers to adjust for temperature changes.
- Bare feet are preferred; soft-soled indoor shoes are acceptable.
