A 40 Day Collaborative Movement Medley
A collection of humans in the heart-work of exploratory movement share their favourite somatic practices, embodied wisdom, resonant cues, personal practices, lessons learned, and bad jokes. Every day for 40 days there will be a different practice lead by a different facilitator sharing whatever it is that lights them up. Offerings include but not limited to: yoga, pilates, dance, kundalini, meditation, magic, HIIT, sound healing, illustration, and writing.
The ~golden thread~ that will weave through the 40 day experience is the daily practice of one 11 minute mantra meditation that will effectively slow our breath down to 2.5 breaths per 45 seconds. Our meditation will be introduced on Day 1 and practiced collectively most days, or as a post class self-study with a video//PDF//audio recording as guide. The experiment is the practice of revisiting the same sadhana every day after exploring a different modality of movement to pay attention to the shifts available when we embrace newness and trust that which is unknown.
To mark a year since familiarizing ourselves with our homes - the one’s with four walls - we’ll use the metaphor of the body as a house to explore different rooms that exist within us. Consider that all practice is for insight. To know your body as your house and the abode of your spirit is to develop an understanding of your structure. Together we’ll explore a range of modalities to tap into the joy of living in our homes, the joy of caring for our homes, the joy of using our homes, remembering that a house is not a home until its lived in.
March 13 - April 21 @ 8-8:45am EST + 11m meditation
