10.30-12.30 - Morning Dance
A 2 hr session to dance alone, together and collectively.We begin with mindful movement suing meditation and somatic invitations. These then invite you into a wide field of connection using dance and movement and mindfulness.
We continue to return to our ‘centre’, and move out from this place of awareness into the relational field.
A bit about ....
The purpose of my teaching is to realise a better balance of attention and consciousness between body and mind, with a playful approach to this enquiry. In conscious dance, there is opportunity to occupy a space that is more body centred than day to day life. This space is intriguing, beguiling and above all more wild than the day to day. The instinctual, sensory and body-felt are the energies of this space.
We are born with this animal nature, and when I listen to this, there are feelings of contentment, knowing and connection. This process of re-membering is one of stepping into what feels the real me. From standing at the edge of the Forest, to following paths into places of meeting and connection. Music is the liquid that lubricates, carries and plays with sensibilities. It offers a dynamic and visceral backdrop to the landscape of discovery. Connecting with fellow dancers within this space allows another paradigm of interaction, energy reflection and sense of deep self in relationship.
IF
life's vibrancy turns to overwhelm
impeding
the fragile nature of heart,
nuzzle in
with a basket of seeds
keep the sparkle alive
When the white noise of human chaos
Blows around us
The changing autumn breeze
Brings a musk scent
calling us back to the earth,
to begin again,
to find new seeds,
father them
close in to the silent song.
