Movement Sustainability starts next week
“Through movement we become familiar with the messages, stories that we carry in our shoulders, in our hips, between our legs, and under our arms. The body is the gateway to the entire psyche. Through the body we enter into the landscape of our inner world, which includes our feelings, our thoughts, our dreams and our realities.” - Gabrielle Roth
Two new Movement Sustainability classes start next week! If you are looking for a way to come into deeper contact with your body, your movements, your creativity, your grief, your joy, or your awe, this class could be a good place for you to spend an hour each week.
We are building a community and practice to cultivate awareness and aliveness. Using our bodies to explore physical movement possibilities, we gain insight into our patterns and practice moving differently. Revelations abound.
In a culture where numbing to deal with overwhelm is the norm, come move together to experience something that cultivates more feeling and invites new perspective.
In Person: Mondays at 8:30 am at the new St Claude Yoga Center, starting September 29th. Register here.
Online: Tuesdays at 8 am PT/10 am CT, starting September 30th for 10 weeks. Register here.
Movement Sustainability is a somatic movement practice that focuses on building awareness and cultivating joy through improvisational tasks. Drawing on the lineages of 5 Rhythms, Movement for Trauma, Fighting Monkey, and other somatic practices, this hour practice offers invitations to reconnect to your senses, body, and environment. Movement Sustainability is a place of building agency, finding play and discovering new possibilities.
Sessions use music and guided movement tasks to explore our physical bodies and our inner landscapes. Throughout the session there will be space made to verbally share any insights, questions, or feelings that may arise, allowing the learnings to integrate more fully into not just our practice but our lives. These one hour sessions will balance moving gently and vigorously, so come dressed to move and build some heat.
I hope you join me! Reach out with any questions, I’d love to hear from you.
