Safety Release

Safety Release (SR) is a comprehensive approach to dance that transcends mere physical execution, integrating anatomical knowledge with artistic expression. At its core, SR focuses on the skeletal structure, particularly the spine's pivotal role in movement, and emphasizes the efficient use of major joints. This approach facilitates bodily awareness, directs energy, and promotes joint freedom, leading to more efficient and easeful movement.
