Zero Forms and Movement Situations: Mixed Modal Movement Training is an all-levels class that explores various facets of physical preparedness and foundational movement-skill development. The class aims to establish readiness for culturally meaningful disciplines such as dance, contemplative arts, sports, or martial arts, as well as the "mundane" choreographies of everyday life. Drawing on the movement pedagogy of Jozef Frucek and Linda Kapetanea, as well as training methods from Hatha yoga, classical strength and conditioning, contact dance, and more, participants will work on multiple layers of body awareness, physical and cognitive vitalization, and athletic potentiation.

The practice in this class is animated by questions rather than fixed protocols. Participants will explore how daily movement practices can be self-corrective, generate insight, preempt injury, and forestall physical degeneration and cognitive rigidity. The class will focus on skillfully and safely channeling energy and force through the structure, distributing stresses evenly across the joints, and enhancing expressive power. Participants will also learn to better attune to each other, supporting kinesthetic learning and problem-solving.

The class involves a variety of exercises, including durational stillness and postural exercises, integrative joint articulations, dynamic rhythmic coordination patterns, interactive partner- and object-based games, and playful improvisational scores. Participants can expect to gain practical knowledge of embodied concepts such as bases of support, bodyweight centers, rotational axes, weight shifting, locomotion, elasticity, and more. The class also aims to develop capacity for intersubjective awareness, physical empathy and communication, and adaptability to changing rules.

Zero Forms and Movement Situations: Mixed Modal Movement Training is led by Michael JMK, a movement teacher and physical training coach with 10+ years of professional experience in classical strength & conditioning. The class welcomes all who come with curiosity and is accessible to all skill levels.
