Movement Medicine weaves together the exhilaration of free dance with the depth of movement meditation and the spirit of shamanic practice.
In this dance, we will explore the synergy of grief, sadness and love , spending time feeling into our moving body, its emotional intelligence, and our innate essence, exploring territory within that may need some acknowledgement and gentle tending to in honour of difficult past events such as death and other losses that may have been a lot for us to hold.
With music as our vessel, we will take a guided journey into our inner landscape. This is a time for you to explore the vertical axis of your Body, Mind, and heart. As you become more present and our movement vocabulary expands, we become freer and begin to sense and experience that within always remains unbroken and free-flowing.
Difficult life experiences like grief and loss leave a mark on our minds and hearts and also on our bodies, this can lead to numbness and dissociation, in this practice we will explore moving a different part of our mental identity to different parts of our body, not only does this serve to warm up the body but it creates a shift of identity an expanding identity, which slowly and gently begins to unthaw us and move us from an experience of disembodiment to embodiment.
This is a dance for ourselves and each other. It is a time in space where we can remember, release, celebrate, and give thanks for the miracle and mystery of life.
This event is free for National Grief Awareness Week, places are limited due to the size of the venue so we ask that you please book your place to allow us plenty of space to move.
