Day 1: Foundations & Flow
Morning Session: The Art of Breath & Movement (3hrs)
Begin your journey with a Matwork movement class that explores the profound connection between breath and movement. Deborah will guide you through essential movement concepts, focusing on how breath leads and integrates the body’s hemispheres. This session emphasizes organic, breath-initiated motion, helping you cultivate a deeper awareness of how foundational patterns support all movement.
Afternoon Session: The Intelligence of Transitions (3hrs - Reformer)
Dive into the subtle art of transitions—those often overlooked but essential moments between movements. Deborah will break down preparatory movements ("goesintas") and demonstrate how thoughtful reformer sequencing enhances movement comprehension. Learn how transitions create clarity, prepare the body, and reveal the deeper intention behind each exercise.
Day 2: Space & Movement Mastery
Morning Session: Exploring Three-Dimensional Space (Floorwork)
Movement doesn’t just happen in straight lines—it spirals, curves, and expands in all directions. In this floorwork session, Deborah will teach you how to develop spatial awareness, using the floor as a solid foundation to explore volume and dimensionality in movement. Discover how working with space can refine alignment, enhance mobility, and bring new depth to your practice.
Afternoon Session: Teaching Movement, Not Just Exercises (Chair and Spine Corrector)
Great teachers don’t just instruct exercises—they guide students toward true movement understanding. This session focuses on how to create meaningful connections between movements, using varied equipment to illustrate key principles. Deborah will share insights on building intentional sessions, helping you teach in a way that fosters lasting comprehension rather than just repetition.
