Re-embodiment Training: 
Re-patterning through somatic
movement

Overview

Our bodies are our first homes, from which we move, act, feel and engage  with the world around us.  Our connection to ourselves  as body directly influences our ability to have healthy relationships,  homes, communities and cultures.  By cultivating a whole body awareness, we begin to notice the patterns of stress and tension in our lives and  start to process them in different ways.   Through the study of movement and perception, we will establish a resiliency that permeates our  homes, workplaces and communities.

As a one-on-one course, we will craft the course together, setting goals and intentions to integrate and develop the skills of
re-embodiment while meeting personal needs.  The course will focus on embodiment, or the experience of ourselves as bodies, why this is of  utmost importance, how to cultivate a practice of embodiment and ways of bringing this work into the rest of our lives.  We will pull from  different fields of knowledge such as Axis Syllabus, Authentic Movement, Body Mind Centering, Somatic Awareness technique, contact  improvisation, clowning, physical theater, Joanna Macy's "Work that  Reconnects" and Butoh. 

As with any work that involves deep listening of the body/self, this class promises to be gentle yet powerful.
