The JSMethod
rooted Contemporary Experience
Created by Professional Dancer, Choreographer, and Instructor Julie Simon
The JSMethod is an extensive dance training program. Drawing on kaleidoscopic roots and diverse technical platforms of Brazilian, African, and Contemporary movement, the aim of the JSMethod is to fuse multiple perspectives of dance to create a unique energetic expression. Requiring execution of movement that is both grounded and voluminous, the JSMethod challenges dancers to push beyond the confines of any one traditional technique or thought pattern, expand their dance vocabulary, and explore how they can fully embody their own individual expression and bring their true essence forward to engage in the joyous celebration of dance.
The JSMethod takes dancers beyond movement, physically and mentally.
