CURRENT OFFERINGS
Movement Awareness Workshop~ Sundays from Noon-1:30 and 2:30-4pm
This workshop is for folks who want to dip their toes into the world of movement.
Geared towards nourishing the body, calming the nervous system, and gently transforming posture - The intention is to end feeling calm and relieved of tension that can continue throughout your day or be kept up over time with daily repetition of calisthenics.
This workshop is a development of many explorative years, learning and a desire to share and test emerging practices. We will spend our time in a gentle, present minded and scientific internal state, focused on our breath, listening to our bodies and responding to the impulses we receive. While maintaining this frame of mind, we gently explore the tensions, positions and movements available in the musculo-skelital system. We will explore strategies for calming the nervous system, bringing movement and flow to frozen postural elements, waking up and toning muscular engagements that are sleepy and/or weakened, and how to assess risk of injury in day to day life.
