“I feel a certain kind of freedom and down-to-earthness in myself and my body. I’ve been out of touch with that part of myself for very many years, and I’m so happy to welcome it back in!”

Exploring the tools of Space-Holder/
Facilitator/Practitioner
People today need, perhaps more than anything, refuge – a space that feels safe. Safe to move or be still, make sounds, speak or be silent, meet self and other(s), and/or self through other(s). A place that promises potential of less or no thought.
Are you currently creating such space?
Do you desire the self-permission and long for the confidence to create such space?
If the answer is “YES” to either of the above, this
gathering is for you.
A Few Essential Qualities of Our Practice:
• Profound self-inquiry via the marriage of Mind’s attention and Body’s sensation.
• Exploration of: the space between a less-thinking, more-feeling, timeless state, and the time-informed ordinary culture-at-large “reality”; the capacity each one of us has to find words that describe those timeless and timeful experiences; ways to sustain the Presence and sense of well being we tap into while in the timeless states of being.
• Holding the impersonal, physically intimate, relational work that elicits a sense of self reliance and autonomy, while simultaneously allowing deep communion.
Our five-day immersion will continue the dive into how to invite via sensation, movement, music, word, silence, stillness, breath and ground (to begin with), the self-knowing and states of being we long for.
As always, our primary way of studying this art and practice of space-holding will be by doing it.
Every participant will have the opportunity to spend time with partners, within smaller and larger groups, using word, sound, music and presence as way of affecting other(s)
This Medicine Dance facilitation training, laboratory, and playground is for long-term movement practitioners with passionate desire to share physical experience that may induce – Love, Exquisite Awareness, a sense of Good, Right Livelihood, Healthy Relationship and State of Being in the world by using techniques to join in with already existing Source Energy.
