The vast capacity of breath emerges, allowing movement to become fluid, intuitive, and effortless. The embodied flow shifts how the body navigates space, finding ease and creativity in adapting to obstacles. Multidimensional movement becomes light, joyful, and free, infusing dance on both land and water with new possibilities. Nonverbal communication takes center stage. Touch, movement, and the language of the skin create a unique way to connect beyond words or social masks, offering a deeply authentic and intimate experience. ๐ŸŒ€ ๐๐ซ๐š๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐œ๐š๐ฅ LOCATION: Intensive will take place on one of the most beautiful beach on island Phangan and in a warm pool (exact location will be shared privately).

SCHEDULE: 9:00-12:00 first session 12:00-14:00 lunch break 14:00-17:00 second session This experience includes somatic patterns and water breathing tips, and provides deep change in your relationship with water. No special skills in dancing or swimming are required. We will practice in shallow waters, you can always step on your feet.
