With Heart; From the Inside, Out

This open level somatic movement & dance workshop explores our heart space from the inside, out. With guided somatic explorations, we consider what support for the inner landscape of the heart is needed to be out in the world.  Holding curiosity and reverence, moving together, we embody our heart space with tenderness and care.

Innate Resilience: A somatic approach to movement and dance

This open level workshop explores how we can access our innate resilience through movement and dance practices. Slowing down from the rapid pace of our cognitive processing we learn to tune in to our sensory intelligence, intuition and body wisdom. Participants are offered a basic understanding of somatics and its effects on nervous system regulation. This will be used as a foundation for guided explorations that help us connect with our self and the environment.  

Like water

“All water has a perfect memory…” Toni Morrison.

Inspired by the quote of Toni Morrison, African Indigenous spirituality and movement patterns, this open level, somatic movement and dance workshop explores the healing, protective properties of water. Participants are invited to embody liberation practices, through guided movements that invoke opportunities to re-member and re-claim the whole self.
