WAYFINDING + SHAPESHIFTING
Animate Practice for the Moving Body
Saturday, November 22nd
10-4pm
Sawmill Herb Farm
119 Old Sunderland Road
Montague, Massachusetts
A one-day workshop to explore the moving body, yours and the earth's.
In this daylong workshop we will be approaching the body through movement (Qigong, improvisation and Body Weather training) and relationship to place (tracking, plant i.d., biological rhythms). We will meet at the Red Barn at Brooks Bend Farm in Montague, MA.
Working inside and out, weather permitting, we will explore the subtle movements within our structures, observe the movements in our surroundings, and research how these two streams of information are integrated through a rich dialogue between self and place. No prior specific movement experience required - the beauty of this practice is that anyone can do it, from professional dancer to biology teacher.
We'll explore the 8 biological pillars, the 8 ways qi moves, and how all life arises out of circulation. You will learn memorable practices to take home, meet some plants to guide you through winter, and leave deeply em-placed.
Cost: sliding scale $125 / $100 / $75
