Join Donna in a unique practice that she has been developing over the years based on moving-in-relation while dancing, inspired by her studies in Laban Bartenieff movement studies, developmental movement, phenomenology, and post structural theory. These somatic-based classes (and workshops) focus specifically on developing attunement skills, kinesthetic empathy, and dancing the space between. MET classes (and workshops) are part laboratory-like in nature. Participants move together focusing on embodied practice in relation. These classes also move somewhat beyond dance, into a field of social togetherness and relational knowing. Self-reflecting, both individually and as a group, is also woven into class. Please note that some guided touch explorations are incorporated into class. All explorations are mindfully guided within a supportive environment.​
