Being there - a one day workshop exploring presence in motion

  • The Theatre Chestnut Grove London, England, SW12 8JZ United Kingdom (map)

'Presence is not something exotic that we need to search for or manufacture, in the simplest form, it is the felt sense of wakefulness, openness, and tenderness that arises when we are fully here and now with our experience'. Tara Brach

This workshop is an exploration of presence, dancing with the many ways we drop in and out of it. We will use practical embodiment tools to help us cultivate our capacity to presence ourselves in the moment. And following the maps of the 5Rhythms we will move with the question; What expands my capacity to be present & what diminishes it? Trusting that the dance can help us let go of the need to make sense, we will dive deep into the wisdom of our bodies, giving breath and momentum to what is emerging - this surrenders us to the mystery & aliveness of the present moment.

Every Body is welcome, all abilities included, it is for experienced dancers & those who have only just begun. If you have not danced 5Rhythms before it is advisable to attend at least one drop in class before the workshop (there are plenty of excellent classes throughout London if Wednesdays are not accessible to you).
