Nia Classes as part of Rejuvenation Station at Frozen River Film Festival with Jacque Paulsen and Mary Lee Eischen at the Integrated Wellness Center, room 127.
Saturday 1:00pm Jacque Paulsen
Sunday 1:00pm Mary Lee Eischen
Jacque has been dancing and moving
her whole life. Moving in her body has been a calling; and seems to take
new shape and form as she dances through life. Dancing in studios and in
troupes has been part of her history from being a backup dancer for a hip hop
group out of Detroit called Slice to dancing with a dance company out of
Rockford, Illinois called Midwest Movement. As a young dancer, she
was asked to dance in ways that stressed and injured her strong body. At one
point she suffered a shoulder injury that did not allow her to raise her arm.
When she began dancing the Nia
Technique, the joy of movement was a new concept for her. The Nia
Technique encouraged people to listen to their bodies and to move in ways for
pleasure instead of pain. An appreciation and a love for her body began
to grow.
