Come raise your energy and joy for life, bring balance to your busy life & mind, reduce your anxiety! Suitable for all Fitness levels and life stages.
BodyStudy with Dorothea -
Bodystudy is an open method, based on exploration and improvisation tasks. It works with the focus on somatic observation and creative exploration as well as owning and experimenting with the four feelings anger, sadness, fear and joy. This method addresses not only the physical body, but also the mental, energetic, emotional and archetypal body.
Initiate Connection with Sybille -
Initiate Connection is a traveling workshop around festivals in NZ, designed to enhance movement spaces and bring community alive in non-verbal ways. In this workshop, we’ll explore creating safe, playful dances in ecstatic spaces, moving fluidly between connection and personal space while bringing more interaction with your unique energy. We’ll also practice the Availability Practice to stay present and open in dance. These skills will flow into the evening’s wild ecstatic dance.
