We gather to witness.
Breath enters, full of possibility and forgetful of its inevitable dissipation. Inspires and expires as tides and empires rise and fall, as our pulse beats tone and release. Our heart, breath, body, life defined by rhythms of effort and rest, impact and silence, matter and the spaces between. Beginnings and endings in steady crossfade promising nothing but time. The laugh of a baby alongside an elder’s slow exit through the pores of their own skin.
Our central practice is Authentic Movement, held within influences and frames from Somatic Experiencing and Cultural Somatics. I draw themes from the moment in the year’s cycle, various wisdom traditions, and the cultural moment we find ourselves in. We let these frames invite, interrogate, agitate, and accompany our experience as moving bodies.
We practice moving and witnessing with care and curiosity. We return week after week, discovering what is ready to move within us, between us, and through us.
Commitment & Care
This is an 8-week committed practice group. If you’re new to the work and want to experience it before committing, drop-in is available for the first meeting only.
No particular movement experience is necessary.
This is not a therapy group. Embodied practice can bring us into contact with old material, strong emotions, and places that need care beyond what this group can provide. Having a therapist, practitioner, or other responsive web of support outside the group is strongly encouraged.
If you have questions about whether this context is appropriate for you, please reach out to chat.
