GroundShift
Embodied Relating for Tumultuous Times
Wed Sept 23 | 5 - 7 pm | Park Slope, Brooklyn
Hey climate week,
ready to get out of your head?
Together, we will embody the change we wish to see. Through ecocentric movement and a sharing circle, we will drop into our bodies, relationships, and the messy middle of our collective moment. Come practice with us in service of our shared future.
GroundShift
Movement:
We'll open with guided somatic movement - an improvisational blend of authentic movement and embodied expression. Expressive and led by instinct as much as instruction, this practice invites you to arrive fully in your body and let it speak what words can't. Together we'll explore what it means to be an embodied earth citizen at this moment - how our posture and the ways we move inform how we show up in these times.
No experience necessary. Just a willingness to move.
Sharing Circle:
From movement we drop into honest conversation. An intentional space for the kind of present-moment, radically honest dialogue that our complex moment is asking of us - together, in real time, without easy answers. In breakout and full groups, will explore how collapse and emergence land in our hearts and relationships, here-and-now.
