"Complex Explorations" 3-part Burlesque Silk Veil Masterclass with Gaea Lady
In this masterclass series I guide you in flow techniques developed over decades of training, flow explorations, performances, and play. This intensive 3 part course will sharpen your skills for directing and guiding the weighted veil, freeing you to awaken new ways of getting into your body, into the flow, and accessing the spiritual & healing side of dance with silk.
Explore technique, philosophy, approach, improvisation, & choreography to expand your knowledge of this unique art form.
Welcome to your BIG complexity ! This course is brainy and exciting - definitely make sure you have the basics down from the Levels 1, 2, & 3 instructionals + a lot of practice before diving in here.
In this first class, we'll focus on PLAY & flow to tease our brain bodies into creating new pathways. This is essential for us to integrate the complexity, and to embody it fully within our mind bodies. Laugh a lot, and don’t take yourself seriously! This stuff takes years to master.
In the first 2 classes we explore & refine:
Complex weaves
Soulful transitions
Directive flicks
Creative whorls
Choreography to Integrate it all
In the last class, we get into our bodies with an excellent and long warmup, and explore how to carve exquisitely imagined complicated shapes around our bodies with wrists, arms, twists, and releasing into the flow.
layer spirals up and down
infinite patterns around the body
catch and release the veil
integrate it all into the choreography.
You can measure your progress through this series by listening to how your brain responds to challenges, struggle, and release. As you practice presence, your body begins to respond and react to your new ways of flowing with ease and grace - as you flow into and through the newness of it all.
