Nathalie Jonas

Bio Nathalie Jonas has been teaching and performing in New York City since 1998. She has been a professor of dance at Barnard College since 2000 and is currently teaching several classes in Feldenkrais Method at Dance New Amsterdam. Class Description The more we understand our bodies, the more choices we have in movement. Our class will begin with a series of explorations taken from the Feldenkrais Method, Qi Gong and improvisation structures which will begin to create an internal focus. We will warm up not only our muscles but our breath and our senses. The class will progress into challenging explorations of physicality, movement phrases that travel through space with ease and efficiency, pushing our ideas of the body’s capacity for grace.
