“All moving is from the mover. Every pull draws us to the Ocean. Let the beauty we love keep turning into action, transmuting into another Other. Anything you grab hold of on the bank breaks with the river’s pressure. When you do things from your soul, the river itself moves through you.”

INSCRIÇÃO OBRIGATÓRIA

 

This work articulates energetic practices like Chi Kung, Tai Chi, and Yoga, with dance, movement, and fasciatherapy, and each class develops in a circle, in continuous flow.  Participants learn to listen to the group and their needs and to be fully Present in freedom and fluidity.

Kinesthesic explorations take place in playful but powerful ways. Proposed exercises help us to awake body wisdom/consciousness, to unlock our internal movement, and connect it with the external world. A sense of unity and belonging naturally arises while the mind and emotions get integrated during the exercises.

This workshop enables an experience of deep ecology that can be felt in every cell of the body, transforming our movement into pure co-creation!

 

 "Heaven & Earth are moving together

 All beings come into union

 The upper and the lower link

 this way, they fulfill their duality."

Participants:

This practice is aimed at people looking for exercises to support vitality and the innate capacity to heal and adapt to the challenges of life, regardless of age or previous dance experience. It is suitable for all those wanting to experience movement and their body as sensible partners for free expression. Physical pain and tensions of all kinds will probably go away…

 Sofia Ferreira

 She became involved in Movement research in 2003 at Centro Em Movimento (CEM, Lisbon), where she started to articulate sensorial movement and contemporary dance. Her training in dance and movement received the influence of teachers such as Ko Morubushi (Butoh), Peter Michael Dietz (Contact improvisation), Ludger Lamers (Partnering), Sandra Battaglia (Amálgama Movement). In 2006 Sofia got a Post Graduation Degree in Perceptive Psychopedagogy of Movement and Action (Danis Bois Method of Fasciatherapy) in Lisbon. Since then, she has been developing community work, namely with blind, disabled, elderly, children, pregnant women, and babies as well as regular adult classes and individual sessions.
