Open Floor Movement Practice

Open Floor is a resource-based movement practice. We explore new ways of moving and responding to what is happening with intention and purpose. We learn to understand our habits and patterns for deeper insight and self-awareness.

Open Floor movement practice offers a dynamic, creative toolkit of resources to move through life, fully embodied. The more we embody different responses in our movements, the more resources we can call on to move through life with flexibility, resilience, and ease.
