Zero Forms and Movement Situations: Mixed Modal Movement Training is an all-levels class that delves into the many aspects of physical preparedness and foundational movement-skill development. This class aims to establish readiness for various culturally meaningful disciplines, such as dance, contemplative arts, sports, and martial arts, as well as the everyday choreographies of life. Inspired by the movement pedagogy of Jozef Frucek and Linda Kapetanea, known as "Fighting Monkey Practice," this class incorporates elements from Hatha yoga, classical strength and conditioning, contact dance, and more. The focus is on enhancing body awareness, physical and cognitive vitality, and athletic potential.

By asking thought-provoking questions, participants are encouraged to explore how their daily movement practices can be self-corrective, generate insight, prevent injuries, and combat physical degeneration and cognitive rigidity. The class also aims to teach participants how to skillfully channel energy and force through their bodies, evenly distribute stresses across joints, and enhance their expressive power. Additionally, participants will learn how to better attune to each other, supporting kinesthetic learning and problem-solving.

Throughout the class, participants will engage in a range of exercises, including stillness and postural exercises, joint articulations, and rhythmic coordination patterns. Interactive partner- and object-based games will be incorporated, as well as improvisational scores to encourage spontaneity and re-patterning. The class is designed to be accessible to all skill levels and will cover important concepts such as bases of support, bodyweight centers, rotational axes, weight shifting, locomotion, and elasticity.

Zero Forms and Movement Situations: Mixed Modal Movement Training will be led by Michael JMK, a highly experienced movement teacher and physical training coach. Michael has studied FM Practice under the direct guidance of Jozef Frucek and Natalia Pieczuro since 2016. With over 10 years of professional experience in classical strength and conditioning, Michael's focus is on adaptive physical preparedness and movement-skill development for disciplines like dance, yoga, bodywork, and martial arts.
