Thu 19 Aug 2021, 7 pm. Intuit somatic movement is a space to be as you are. As we dance we listen with the body.
Our embodiment is the clearest way to hear what needs to be attended to.
It might be our emotions or insight into our own internal guidance.
Many of us are dancing with I don't know right now, how do we befriend the mystery, finding freedom in the uncertainty if only for a moment while we are in motion and in stillness.
This is a guided journey of 8 songs to move with our inner world to transform our outer world.
We will meet over 12 weeks to develop community of like hearted people.
We will have a sharing and closing circle to recognize we are held exactly as we are.
