Come Home to the Body

Slow down, to be present with our bodies. Through Authentic Movement, a somatic movement exploration, we invite you to find your body’s voice. In this non-judgemental space, we tune inwards – practicing gentle listening and responding to the inherent wisdom of our bodies. As movers and witnesses, we uncover and bridge our conscious and unconscious materials — images, sensations, thoughts, dreams and feeling states.

No experience in dance is necessary for this workshop. All you need is curiosity and respect for yourself and others. Come home to your body as we move and be moved together.

OBJECTIVES

1. Deepen our felt sense of the mind/body connection.
2. Encourage the development of trust in one’s inner voice and intuitive guidance.
