Centering Dance: A Monthly Guided Mindfulness Practice of Embodiment
August 22, 2023 @ 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm
$20
Release, recharge, and recenter by gifting yourself 90 minutes of intuitive, inspired, mindful movement with a welcoming local community!
These days, we are all feeling the edges of our capacity to cope. You can deepen and supercharge your self-care by tapping into the wisdom of your body.
Once a month, join a growing and diverse community in discovering the special alchemy that occurs at the intersection of mindfulness, movement, and music. No dance experience is needed; come and be welcomed *as you are.*
Each event will begin with brief introductions and setting of intentions for the session. Then, accompanied by a carefully curated playlist of inspiring music and sound, Teresa will help facilitate your journey of intuitive movement, guiding you to find inspiration in your:
– breath
– sound
– body
– mind
– spirit
– story
– sound
– body
– mind
– spirit
– story
We approach this in a state of mindfulness, which is characterized by:
– non-judgment
– patience
– having a beginner’s mind
– trust
– non-striving
– acceptance
– letting go
– patience
– having a beginner’s mind
– trust
– non-striving
– acceptance
– letting go
You will have the opportunity to explore your inner depths through active movement, contemplative stillness, and all that emerges in-between.
Personal awareness and attunement to one’s own limits, boundaries, and needs throughout the practice is foundational to mindful dance. Individuals with differences in physical ability are welcome and freely accommodated.
Our time will close with a circle gathering with optional personal sharing.
