Together we'll cultivate a deeper connection with mind, body, spirit, and your core Self. This workshop will be appropriate for both new attendees and those who have attended prior Dancing with our Parts workshops -- facilitators will adapt the content to the group.

We all have parts of ourselves that seem to be at odds with each other - we want to be seen, but when given the opportunity, we want to hide. We want to (or at least are told we should) "feel our feelings," but get overwhelmed when we start to experience the depth or intensity of them.  In this workshop,  we will practice making choices in our dancing, which will strengthen our sense of agency with our emotional world, or Self-leadership with our parts.  We will practicing choosing to move in and out of intensity, supported by the group process. 

We will be held in the compassionate witness of a partner, and consolidate the experience through journaling and verbal reflection in pairs and in the larger group.

WHAT IS AUTHENTIC MOVEMENT?: An embodied practice involving moving while being witnessed, inspired by the Discipline of Authentic Movement, described here: https://disciplineofauthenticmovement.com/public-pages/welcome-discipline-of-authentic-movement/a-brief-description/
