“Delving into fullness”
This workshop will guide you into the fullness of your body. We will use the presence of our organs to move from the three-dimensionality, elasticity and full presence within us! Each organ has its own story, characteristics and function. In their beauty and complexity they keep us alive and support our movements in their adaptability. It’s a collaborative dance inside us that fosters our motions! We will explore their support for elasticity, lightness, buoyancy, resilience, comfort and full presence. We will relate to earth and space, follow what flows inside us and navigate through inner movement and the world around us.
Through anatomy, somatizations, touch, sound and movement alone and with a partner we will tune into organs, their rhythms, pulsation, vibration, flow, relief and aliveness. We will take some “side trips” to fluids, connective tissues, embryology and developmental movement patterns. Following expression on the smallest cellular level to large movement through space.
My wish is to spark the joy of movement and interest in exploring your body. You will be provided with profound knowledge, engage in in-depth experience and become aware of the interconnectedness of inner and outer processes: awareness on a subtle cellular level and its expression through movement.
