Workshops

Authentic Movement with Jane Blount, HHP

3-Session Spring Series

April 28, May 26, June 23

Can we enter the vastness of not knowing? Wait and listen for the body’s inner leadings to rise and flow, sink and rest, or burst into being? The practice of Authentic Movement invites us to be present with our full and deepest selves, it offers an entry into seeing clearly through cultivating one’s inner witness. This profound discipline, involving inner-initiated movement, with eyes closed in the receptive presence of a witness connects us to the inner wisdom of the body.

In this 6 session offering we will deepen our exploration of the elements of Authentic Movement: how to connect with one’s authentic movement, moving and being moved, seeing and being seen, and the roles of mover and witness, both inner and outer. We will continue to embody conscious use of language and use various forms of practice such as dyads, the breathing circle, and the long circle.

This series is open to all. If you are new to Authentic Movement you must come to the first session or connect with Jane for an introduction to the practice.
