Neuroscience is telling us that when we can embody the emotional state of YES we open a channel for what we desire to manifest. There is something that happens when we embody YES that creates new pathways and possibilities. Embodying YES is a process of opening our hearts.
This training, led by Azul founder Amara Pagano, offers an in-depth exploration of the Azul Spiral and focuses on gaining an embodied understanding of each of its components. The Azul Spiral is a map of life that facilitates our evolutionary process and the awakening of consciousness. This is what moves us towards experiencing love in every aspect of our lives and fully expressing our gifts and potential.
Join Daria Halprin at the ISMETA Engaging Embodiment Conference
On March 3 – 7, the ISMETA Conference, Engaging Embodiment: Somatic Applications for Health, Education & Social Justice is offering presentations from over 130 professionals in the field of Somatic Movement Education and Therapy to help inspire you.
In this workshop series we will explore creative pathways to embody vitality. We’ll deepen our movement awareness and expressiveness, and we’ll use performance as a portal to activate our sense of aliveness and presence, and to generate images of renewal. Through the lens of the Life/Art Process, we’ll begin by tuning in to bodily sensations and journey outward by developing our range of movement. Weaving in our imagination, we’ll explore dances of our bones, nerves, and hearts as inspiration for performance. Along the way, we’ll share mini-performances where we witness and are witnessed by others.
This week’s Dance First Member Spotlight is from Banafsheh, creator of Dance of Oneness!
Dear dancers,
Despite all the tragedies and losses, the pandemic has simultaneously brought a new level of expansiveness and intimacy with self and others. It has also given us a new appreciation for the power of dance.
Our dancing communities are reaching people world-wide thanks to Zoom. No longer limited by barriers of finance, time, and space, dancers from all over the globe can join our Dance of Oneness community – as well as the other dance communities facilitators have been so liberally sharing with us in Monday Love emails. As we expand our reach, our world feels smaller, more intimate, and within our grasp. We can’t touch each other in person, but we are touching one another across space in ways that truly transform us. I am blown away again and again by the level of intimacy and depth we are able to reach on Zoom. Like many, I would have never believed this pre-pandemic. All my teaching was in person before April 2020.
