Skinner Releasing Technique (SRT)
The Work Room Studio, Glasgow
Skinner Releasing Technique (SRT) with Kirsty Alexander is a Member-Led Event
Sunday 30 October | 2pm to 4pm
Sunday 11 December | 2pm to 4pm
Skinner Releasing Technique (SRT) utilises guided poetic images, hands-on partner work and movement explorations to encourage a letting go of habitual holding patterns and to explore ease, fluency and articulacy of movement. Technical principles such as multi-directional alignment, suppleness, suspension, economy and autonomy are explored within an individual creative process. The October workshop will offer class 1 of the SRT pedagogy with the December workshop offering class 2; however, one is not a pre-requisite for the other, you are very welcome to join either or both.
