Description

A small, intimate, and playful exploration of touch after a year of social isolation... through sound, dance, and somatic practice. In this wrokshop we will use sound, dance, and somatic practices to explore contact, consent, resonance, and co-regulation. A year plus of social and physical isolation has left so many of us feeling estranged. As social creatures, isolation has such a profound impact on our bodies, emotions, and well-being. AND re-integrating touch, closeness, and sociability can be wildly challenging in it's own way. Moving slowly- at the pace of our own bodies- we will explore re-integration, consent, and deep listening to what our bodies need and want. We will move together, we will play together, we will practice bodywork on each other, and we will use a Touch Me midi synthesizer to playfully explore contact and make music together through our resonance. ***As an additional offering and more depthful exploration of touch, private somatic bodywork sessions are also available to each person who attends, for an additional fee. ----- VACCINATION OR MASK IS REQUIRED! This is an indoor, in-person, workshop that will involve close contact. There will be no more than 6 participants. Please only sign up if you are ok with that!
