Vortex translates visual-motor-spatial concepts into sensory-motor-spatial experiences. Dancers learn about alignment, positioning, orientation, and improvised movement through proprioceptive breathing and bioelectricity, linked through the nervous system, which controls the electrical signals that regulate bodily functions, such as the voluntary movement inherent in dance. Angular and curved movement emerges from five (ventral/dorsal) points in the body: the third eye/lambda, sternum/thoracic vertebrae, pubic symphysis/sacrum, volar/dorsal wrist, and calcaneus/talus, along the Anteroposterior, Laterolateral, and Longitudinal body axes, and across the Sagittal, Transverse, and Frontal planes.
In essence, Vortex is sensorial dancing.
