Reflexology for Sens Production - A Highlight

Noemie La France's dancers were introduced to Reflexology at Bard College during "Rapture" in 2008. In Rapture the Sens dancers performed atop the undulating roof of a Gehry building.  Birgit spent two days at Bard College.

I had two lovely Reflexology sessions with Birgit, while performing in Sens| Noemie Lafrance's production of Rapture in Sept 2008.  Birgit was very attentive to my needs.  The sessions were very relaxing and appreciated.  I think Reflexology can be a great benefit to dancers. - Heather/Dancer

My very first experience with Reflexology couldn't have been more timely. Amidst a very full schedule, we had the privilege of having Birgit Nagele onsite during our creation residency at Bard College.  I received a 30 minute session focusing on face and hands and was astonished by how back to my body I felt immediately afterwards.  Birgit was appreciated by all of the dancers and most definitely by myself as well. Many thanks. - Natalie/Producer
