somatic transformative arts series for
body based integration
In this class series for body-based integration, we co-create a safe space for healing and expression through improvisational movement and personal story-telling practices that cultivate access to our bodily experience and knowing.

The class combines movement and somatic modalities to strengthen our relationship with our impulses and sensations. Body-based ways of knowing support understanding ourselves and our experience of being alive. The classes are accessible, playful and also rich/deep. The work is based in Body Tales, a combination of improvised personal storytelling with movement and sound. Participants are grateful for the integration the work brings to their life. They also get in touch with essential parts of their selves and experience "aha's!" that bring clarity and grounding.
