Presence of Heart

 Presence of Heart~

Within each of us dwells a beating heart playing out the rhythm of our lifetime. Traumas and dramas, joys and surprises~all the stories that we have accumulated and those yet to be experienced. In setting aside our stories we can begin to find the medicine that comes with being in the beat of the present moment.

In this workshop, we will traverse the emotional map of our beating heart through a journey of rhythms. We will invite the teachers of fear, anger, sadness, joy and compassion to bring us into the beat. We will purposely be PRESENT in the beat of our own hearts. Gabrielle Roth’s 5Rhythm’s Heartbeat map will be the safe container that holds our emotional stew as we move towards PRESENCE with our tender hearts. I hope you will join me in this exploration to deeply listen to our

Beat.  Heart. Now.

ROOTS

REFLECT: The beauty of our practice from a theatrical prospective is having the opportunity to reflect life, absorbing every morsel of its offerings and gifting it back to the dance over and over again.

RHYTHM: In living this practice as artists we embody the rhythms through every breath we take, through every offering we make. Each gesture an extension of our body, heart, mind, soul & spirit. 

RITUAL: As artists we manifest change offering ourselves and our stories from that Live Wire place inside our creative centre. 

REAL: Evoking a creative way of seeing and experiencing life from the artistic nature of the body.

ROOTS: The electric landscape of unpredictable possibility that lives and breathes inside our bones. 

There is no place like home. 

Join us in this poetic landscape as we come together to nourish ourselves and each other, creating an ensemble rooted in aliveness, returning to wonder and recharging possibility.
