“Imagine how alive you would be if your kinesthetic sense were to be heightened and cultivated beyond its present consciousness.” ~ Anna Halprin
This workshop is currently full. Email amy@tamalpa.org to be added to the Waitlist for this workshop.
Join us in replenishing your energy, experiencing new ways of moving, and finding time and space for your creative self.
Drawing on Anna Halprin’s somatic body of work, Movement Ritual and Dance Explorations, participants will be introduced to the somatic approach of allowing and listening to bodily sensations, slowing down the nervous system, and progressing with heightened kinesthetic awareness through various movement structures. Participants further enliven their dances in solo and groups to explore new ways of moving.
Drawing on the Tamalpa Life/ Art Process, participants will dialog between body and imagination. Using movement, drawing, and writing, participants will tap into art’s language to integrate aspects of their kinesthetic experience.
No dance experience needed!
To get the most out of these online classes, please prepare a comfortable space to move in with access to your online device. Also, have art supplies ready at hand for drawing activities, and paper and pen for journaling and creative writing exercises.
