Class testimonial - Barbara

“The first class was slightly foreign and, as when you travel abroad, the experience is enhanced when you finally learn the language. I’m still learning it. The process has been both a revolutionizing and a healing one. Every class gives birth to new ideas, new possibilities of movement, of understanding one’s own body. Your range of motion begins to develop, your sense of focus and proprioception is heightened and one leaves class feeling exercised and cleansed. The Duncan technique fosters a wealth of experiences that are vital to any master seeking to master their craft.

Jennifer has a thorough understanding of this method, of the body’s anatomy and it’s behavior, in addition to an uncanny intuition that allows her to tailor all her classes to each and everyone one of its participant’s needs. She can provide modifications for her movements so that each individual is challenged while still feeling nurtured. Her classes are fun and dynamic, they are a source for fitness and they provide a very therapeutic catharsis that becomes indispensable with time, always staying faithful to the integrity of the Isadora Duncan philosophy of dance.”
