SHAPES:

A drop-in space for you to recentre the wisdom of your body by following and giving space to its naturally-unfolding impulses, feelings and experience.

During our time together we will use our felt sense to inquire into: what is already alive and happening within my body? How can I make more room for this?

You will be guided to give physical shape and movement to what you encounter, and to follow your body's impulses, desires and longings. Using breath and our capacity to meet sensation, we will feel into: how is my experience just right in this moment? Where can I contact the innate innocence and intelligence of what my body is feeling? What are my instincts guiding me towards? We will orient to these questions from a body-up space: meaning that we allow our felt sense somatic experience, rather than our cognition, to unfold any answers.

We will practice unshaming feeling-states that feel more on the crunchy, frozen, or spiky end of the spectrum - and instead offer them room to speak through our bodies. This turning-towards often connects us with the inherent sensuality, nourishment and wisdom that these kind of spaces can hold. There will also be room for your joy, spaciousness, weirdness and any other feeling state in our time together.

As we unfold the Shapes that are wanting to speak through our bodies, the exploration will become more fluid and there will be opportunities for you to gently improvise in movement.

This practice is rooted in my own personal somatic experimentations, and also draws upon and synthesises other pathways and modalities that I have been lucky enough to experience.

Practice time will run for 75 minutes with time included for sharing and witnessing.
