Julie Rothschild on Art, Movement, and Menopause

Heart of Motion

Join me as I reconnect with the extraordinary Julie Rothschild, a dancer, artist, and movement teacher whose journey through art and motion will leave you inspired. Julie takes us through her profound relationship with dance and how the pandemic led her to the intricate world of tapestry weaving, offering a new dimension to her creative expression and fulfilling her artistic yearnings in ways dance alone could not.
Join us as we unpack the intricate dance between improvisation and structured techniques in movement and teaching. Julie and I share personal stories on how frameworks can guide yet not stifle spontaneity, enhancing the teaching experience. We discuss movement modalities like the Alexander Technique, and Pilates, their impact on our approach to movement, and how they helped us overcome our own physical challenges. Adaptability and continuous learning emerge as central themes in navigating both personal and professional landscapes.
In our final segment, we explore the evolving nature of movement practices, especially as we age. We reflect on the importance of wisdom, shared experiences, and adapting our practices to maintain an active lifestyle.
Correction!!
In error, Julie mentioned an exhibit at the New Local. Please note that the gallery hosting the exhibit is instead the Low Rider. The opening of that exhibit is a private reception not open to the public.
We apologize for any confusion that may have caused.
