what: is the origin of movement?
The main focus of this class series is to consciously explore & play with the origin of integrating body-mind-spirit. When we free the storehouse of our dynamic energy we are able to deeply attune to our sense of pleasure, ease, and innate resonance with the natural qualities all around us : as us.
We will dive into the principles of The Seki Method developed by the pioneering, third-generation butoh artist-choreographer-teacher, Minako Seki.
Here we begin to sense our power, feel our hanging body : water bag body, attune to our Tan Den, gather & focus our mind via meditation, and collectively harmonize via ritual practices.
How (much): Pay from the Heart
€10 - 20 /class
9 Class Full Immersion: €75-100
NOTE: This class series does build upon every class. It is best to embark on the whole journey. However, our full lives and schedules may not allow for this, so come and play as you may.
All curious bodies are welcome!
