We’re very excited for this opportunity to dive more deeply into our work with a committed group of people. The embodied scores, dancing, and learning will be directed most specifically around the questions we are all facing at this time on our planet, and how embodied practices can be hugely relevant as we move forward together through challenging times. How rooting in our embodied presences in each present moment can offer both personal and collective support and the strength to face what the future is bringing. An opportunity to feel into what we each might need and what we might be able to contribute as we journey together into this unprecedently and unknown time.
