WHAT IS CONTACT DANCE? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzb9Hnjnd5g ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE People from all demographics & ages gather every Sunday in a sacred, safe & sober celebration of life. The community is cultivated around yoga, conscious dance, live DJ sets from incredible artists from around the world, healthy rescued food, live music, sound healing, meditation and a sharing circle where all can be seen and heard. The space now exists to explore the full potential of being human amidst a loving & accepting community. About Matthew: A bridge builder by nature, Matthew synthesizes a diverse background in performance, contact improvisation, bodywork, somatic therapy, mindfulness, limbic imprint recoding and practical shamanism into a method he calls Living Bridges. He founded and ran the ecstatic dance in Grass Valley/Nevada City and has 20 years of experience practicing Contact Improvisation. His particular areas of interest with the form are in how it can function as a healing experience to explore how early childhood attachment patterns affect our movement in present time. In his private counseling practice he works with individuals and couples to feel safer in their bodies and relationships and to increase their emotional intelligence and presence in all areas of their lives.
