Online Classes with Kathryn Irey

Online Classes

Kathryn Irey with her SDSU students

We will keep Stage 7’s unique laboratory approach to barre and encourage all participants to move with personal integrity… and joy!

As we all adapt to the online environment. please expect corrections, suggestions, and lovingly sarcastic remarks.

What’s different about online classes from Stage 7?

  • No mirrors = trust your senses
  • No “front” = adapt to the space you’re in
  • No life-sized person in front of you to follow = Look inside for ease, power, freedom, integrated function, fresh experiences of centuries-old practices.
  • No strict atmosphere = expect surprises, revel in them… then laugh!
  • Let the dancers in Stage 7 doing the exercises to be your guide you = Don’t worry that we’re not all in sync…. exactly….
  • Breathe = Let your whole body find its groooove
  • ENJOY 🙂
