LEIMAY LUDUS Community Classes are back with the usual weekly format to support your ongoing journey through embodiment and creative exploration.

From February 2 through May 26, 2026, we will gather every Tuesday evening in CAVE, home of LEIMAY, continuing the consistent weekly rhythm that has nurtured our community.

This is a continuation of the structure that fostered such profound connection and growth. We are keeping what works: same day, same time, and the same core teaching team you’ve come to know. The space remains guided by theLEIMAY Artistic Director Ximena Garnica, the Senior Company Member Andrea Jones and the LEIMAY Ensemble members Akane Little, Masanori Asahara, and Krystel Mazzeo. Together, this team holds the container for your ongoing journey of embodiment and creative exploration.

What is LUDUS?

LEIMAY LUDUS is a living, breathing movement practice developed through years of research in performance, somatics, and transformation. It draws from Japanese butoh, Noguchi Taiso, Body Weather, experimental theater, and LEIMAY’s own artistic work. The practice blends physical rigor with imaginative play, cultivating presence, adaptability, and deep listening.

In these classes, you might:

• Melt into water or ignite like fire,
• Explore invisible strings and forces,
• Expand your awareness of time, rhythm, and gravity,
• Morph into new forms through improvisation and guided imagery,
• Engage your voice, breath, and subtle shifts of energy.

This is a space where all bodies are welcome—no dance or movement experience is needed. Whether you’re an artist, an activist, a seeker, a healer, or simply curious, LUDUS Community Classes offer you a place to move, feel, and explore in a supportive environment.
