This is a moment to pour into one self, to set an intention of how one connects with our bodies in a safe and empowering way. Instigating our creative life force to move through us, via activation of the breath, the imagination and our bodies. Through a collection of ideas and exercises I intend to share my joy for moving and the way in which movement has been a depositary of well being. In times of confusion, personal or collective, returning to moving for myself rather than for work or for anyone has always recharged me. Thus this session is for this intention, to recharge and install confidence in one self. We will move through a myriad of modalities that encompass simply charging ourselves up with positive movements through engaging or physical, mental and spiritual being.
For
For anyone who has a lived experience of feeling disembodied or disconnected from their bodies in some way. For anyone who is seeking to experience this liberation in order to face everyday knowing what their experiences have lived will not define who they are. I intend that together we forge a different story and rise against the oppressive state through finding joy in our bodies and existing.
