All Of It!

We love to dance. All that life and energy moving through our body, without our having to think about it ~ such freedom, so truly alive!
And we each have our own dance ~ our signature moves, our personal style. Because, once we’ve found our feet, how we move is a reflection of who we are.

Which is great.. until we get tired of it.
Being the specific being that is me is both a delightful opportunity, and a limitation. Here I am again, even on the dancefloor, in all my brilliance, with all my boring stuff..

By changing and expanding the ways in which I move, I can change and grow into new ways of being me. We can use the dance we love to open to new possibilities in ourselves.

This weekend we’ll go back to the building blocks of our movement ~ big, small, fast, slow, forward, back, hands, feet, hips, spine, breath.. ~ and see where we could expand the range of our dance to include new possibilities. Embracing all that we could become, because the freedom that we seek is free from any particular shape or pattern ~ the freedom to be all of it!

Journey of the Heart

 As we notice summer begin to make way for autumn, knowing that we too are part of nature, we will invite our ever changing feelings to lead our creative practice. Tracking, welcoming and following our feelings through the 5Rhythms maps is a way to embody the heart.

In this workshop, we will honour our journey with the emotions of fear, anger, sadness and joy
 ~ has our relationship with them changed over time in the way we can allow and express them?
~ are they welcome when they arrive again?
~can our embodiment and transformation of emotions inspire others?
~ do they open the path to compassion?
