Thank you to everyone that came out for our workshop this past weekend! With the fusion of precision and symbology that Silvestre Technique brings we so enjoyed seeing people move with greater intention and purpose in the space. So so grateful for our time with Rosangela! Here’s a few more moments from our private workshop last week 🪨🌊🔥💨 #bdunnmovement #SilvestreTechnique #bdunnmovementxsilvestretechnique

This is your sign to RSVP for the Silvestre Technique workshop this Sunday. If you enjoy mindful, intentional practice that is also physically challenging this workshop is for you. Don’t miss this opportunity! Yesterday company dancers and invited guests had the privilege of taking a private workshop with Brazilian artist and founder, Rosangela to learn more about Silvestre Technique. Here’s what some of the participants had to say: 🔹”She makes movement accessible to people from all technical backgrounds.” 🔹”I learned things about myself and reconnected with myself in a way I haven’t been able to for a long time.” 🔹“[Class] was an experience of discovery and reawakening. Discovering new ways to move as my body has aged and hardened but still finding the connection that inherently deeply roots us all in dance.” 🔹”So many of the principals she talked about can be applied to any dance class or practice- there are many ways in.” 🔹”Taking class from her enabled me to feel zoned into my body and capabilities. It demands your best in a beautiful, honest way.” #bdunnmovement #bdunnmovementxsilvestretechnique #SilvestreTechnique
