"The little trick of getting three objects to dance around in your hands has always managed to keep a small sense of magic...It's one form of insanity we feel everyone has a right to experience."

Utilizing the innate wisdom of the body, the neutral mask enables us to find freedom, awareness and expression. It is a foundation and point of reference for building all character. It pushes us to our growing edge, guides us into a dialogue with our habits and arrives at the truth through essential gesture.

The neutral mask is a full-face mask that you wear through a series of exercises. The mask engages a large space and beckons you to expand your presence. The exercises allow you to experience how the great movements of nature correspond to the most intimate movements of human emotion.

The course will cover the entire thrust of the neutral mask work, including all supporting structures: dynamic studies, movement analysis, element identifications and ensemble creation.

This course is open to professional individuals of all levels.
Classes are very physical.
