GYROKINESIS®
GYROKINESIS®, formally called “yoga for dancers”, is a unique system of movement that
gently works the joints and muscles of the body through rhythmic, undulating and
oppositional movements that embrace the key principles also found in yoga, dance,
swimming, tai chi and yoga. This class will increase strength and range of motion
and challenge you to move with more fluidity, relaxation, and power.
Thursdays, March 6-April 10, 2008, from noon to 1:30 pm.
The cost is $72. Please register in advance and bring your mat.

to movement. She is also a modern dancer who has trained professionally, performed and
taught extensively in New York City, on the North Shore, and in the Boston area. An
original member of Spencer Colton, she has also performed with numerous companies and
choreographers. She was a guest artist and resident choreographer for the North Shore

Let's Dance Together
The "Lets Dance Together" classes are designed to develop coordination,
stimulate imagination, and prepare children for later dance or sports
activities, through interactive dance experiences involving both parent and
child. Music and rhythms are a part of each class. Parents will learn a
series for enjoyable activities which they can later repeat at home with
their children.
