Feb 12 - Somatic Movement Workshop
Somatic Movement Workshop with Julie Nathanielsz
Sunday, Feb 12, 1-3pm. $5 advance registration, $10 at the door
This session introduces simple and in-depth exercises to awaken and invite the resources that your body holds to support movement. We will explore these exquisite resources by engaging specific imagery, tactile studies, long passes for letting new movement possibilities arise, supported at times by music. In our daily life activities, we often go quickly out – adrenalized - to meet the world around us. In this class we’ll consider ways of listening before motoring, and if there is time, play with tuning the shared field. Movement might range from soft and fluid to fast and vigorous, while engaging your body and curiosity. For beginners and experienced movers alike. All bodies are welcome. Please bring a blanket.
Julie Nathanielsz, MFA, is a movement artist working where affect, identity, nature and place collide. While living in Austin, TX, she founded and co-founded several projects centering dance improvisation in performance. Julie has taught dance and contemplative practice for 20 years.
