with Daniel Bear Davis

Web, Nest, Earth, Home: Somatic Practices for Woven Bodies
An 8 Week Committed Movement Group on Wednesday Mornings (2/28 - 4/17)
Drop-ins welcome the first two sessions (2/28 and 3/6)

This group will weave authentic movement, free writing, and other movement practices with insights from Somatic Experiencing and cultural somatics. We will combine tools for orienting, settling, and resourcing with contemplative movement and perception practices to weave dynamic relations between our flesh bodies and the larger bodies of which we are part (i.e. land/place, ancestry, culture, nature). Through movement and mindfulness practice we deepen our trust in our body's innate wisdom and capacity to align towards health and emergent possibilities.

Each class will offer specific focus and content to frame improvised movement explorations. There will be group sections and one-on-one witnessing. This class is open to all bodies with curiosity towards movement and the landscapes of the human experience.
