Description: "BodyMind Dancing™ is an anatomically informed, somatic movement experience that weaves together somatic inquiry, improvisation, and accessible follow-along movement phrases. Rooted in the understanding that awareness emerges through the body in motion, classes invite participants to investigate sensation, perception, and expression while engaging the art of dancing itself.

Participants are guided through cues that encourage introspection and self-awareness and then supported in bringing that awareness into relationship with space, music, and others. Each participant has the freedom to respond to prompts in ways that are safe, adaptive, and honoring of their own body, capacity, and lived experience.

Classes balance inner listening with outward connection, integrating best practices in dance education: strong social-emotional intelligence, community building, self-care informed by dance science. Improvisation and skill-building coexist, allowing participants to build confidence, clarity, and creative agency over time.

Taught by Certified Teacher of BodyMind Dancing™ (CTBMD), Molly W. Schenck, this practice draws from over 40 years of BodyMind Dancing™ pedagogy, integrating somatic approaches with contemporary dance and various movement modalities and traditions. Classes may include playful anatomy exploration and reflection, while moving to a range of rhythms - from instrumental music to silence, nature, and the internal rhythms of the body itself.

BodyMind Dancing™ offers a compassionate, expressive, and deeply human space to move, feel, and connect."

Materials: Participants should dress in loose comfortable clothing, light layers and knee pads recommended

Description: The Glass Ballot- Open Construction: Students will be given instruction on how to make a variety of pieces using open construction techniques, but with a twist. In this class, students will be presented with two options for techniques they want to learn and vote. The technique with the most votes wins and will be taught the following week so that students have the week to plan. Every other week is a student work day to practice techniques or work on any existing projects. The class is 7 weeks. That leaves gives time for three technique instructions days, four student work days.

Materials: Students are responsible to purchase their sheet glass, and kiln shelf paper. We will be working with glass powders, students should have a N100 particulate respirator or an N95 mask to protect against airborne dust. Each student may create up to (2) items each week no larger than 12”x12. Kiln shelf paper will be available for purchase in the classroom. Tools are available for use. Important Update: Students are responsible for purchasing their own sheet glass and bringing to class. Some of the techniques you will learn involve using glass powdered frit. Due to the amount of powdered frit needed, students will be responsible for bringing their own to class. *SW Art Glass on Thomas Rd sells sheet glass, powdered frit and other glass fusing supplies. Tell them you are a student at Phoenix Center For the Arts. Ask about student discount. If there are specific colors/sizes of frit, noodles, or stringers that you would like to use for your projects, please understand that they may not be available in the classroom. These may also be purchased at SW Art Glass or your other favorite glass supplier. As a reminder when purchasing sheet glass, stringers, powders, frits, noodles etc. in the studio we use 96 COE. Fusing Glass is sold in 96 COE and 90 COE. The two are NOT compatible. Make sure what you buy is the correct COE. If you choose to use 90 COE Bullseye Glass, firing results may vary, as our kiln firing schedules are set for 96 COE which soften and fuse at a lower temperature than 90 COE. You will also be responsible for keeping your 90 COE and 96 COE separated and identifiable.

Email will go out from the instructor prior to first class with more details to help with your decision making on what materials to purchase. Please ensure your email on file is up to date.

Description: "BodyMind Dancing™ is an anatomically informed, somatic movement experience that weaves together somatic inquiry, improvisation, and accessible follow-along movement phrases. Rooted in the understanding that awareness emerges through the body in motion, classes invite participants to investigate sensation, perception, and expression while engaging the art of dancing itself.

Participants are guided through cues that encourage introspection and self-awareness and then supported in bringing that awareness into relationship with space, music, and others. Each participant has the freedom to respond to prompts in ways that are safe, adaptive, and honoring of their own body, capacity, and lived experience.

Classes balance inner listening with outward connection, integrating best practices in dance education: strong social-emotional intelligence, community building, self-care informed by dance science. Improvisation and skill-building coexist, allowing participants to build confidence, clarity, and creative agency over time.

Taught by Certified Teacher of BodyMind Dancing™ (CTBMD), Molly W. Schenck, this practice draws from over 40 years of BodyMind Dancing™ pedagogy, integrating somatic approaches with contemporary dance and various movement modalities and traditions. Classes may include playful anatomy exploration and reflection, while moving to a range of rhythms - from instrumental music to silence, nature, and the internal rhythms of the body itself.

BodyMind Dancing™ offers a compassionate, expressive, and deeply human space to move, feel, and connect."
