Workshops and Training 

 

Inspired by Dunham



This workshop was inspired by the work of internationally renowned scholar, activist, and artist Katherine Dunham and co-created with Dr RaShon of the Ishangi Institute. 

​

The Dunham Technique began as an exploration of how western trained dancers could relate to, participate in, and articulate the authenticity of another’s culture by developing control, strength and self- awareness.



By combining elements of the Dunham Technique with movement from GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® we will explore how to access our authentic personal power.



1. Gain awareness and acceptance of your unique rhythm

2. Increase your rhythmic strength and capacity

3. Experience how to sustain your rhythm within the group dynamic

Whether you are a dancer, an athlete, a fitness enthusiast, or simply an individual who appreciates the gift that is our human form, learn to move with effortless power and grace.

The Enneagram of Personality  &  Movement



The Enneagram is an ancient map of consciousness that provides a key to understanding the thoughts, feelings, motivation and behavior that create your personality. When combined with mediative movement processes you can awaken and align the energy centers of the subtle body. This provides the means for deep exploration, discovery, release and realignment of the whole person to enhance movement. Developed by Dr RaShon of the Ishangi Institute and Kehinde Ishangi—we call this process EnneaDance™.
