Meghann Michalsky’s teaching philosophy draws on her knowledge base in anatomy, release technique, floor-work, the Itcush method, and improvisation. Her classes’ will predominately explore European floor-work and Limon inspired standing work as well as structured improvisations to train a distinct range of qualities. Throughout this workshop she will offer cues that prompt more freedom in the pelvis and spine and overall less pain in the dancing body.
