Somatic Storytelling: Freeing the Mind, Voice, and Body

Our body is a tapestry that carries memory and immense knowledge. These days, we do a lot of surface-level reflection but rarely do we deepen that reflection with movement, action, and imaginative play. In our time together, we will begin with breath work and meditation, then ease into a few activities to explore a deep connection to our own voices, bodies, and each other.

The late poet and theologian John O’ Donohue said, "There is a place in the soul that neither time nor space nor any other being in touch. Where there is still a sureness in you. Where there is a seamlessness, a confidence and tranquility in you." The intention of this workshop is to unearth and deeply nurture that place.

This program will comprise of tea and introductions, a brief lecture on ancient Indian practices of storytelling, breath work, vocal work, meditation, interactive work, and space for reflection. No dance or movement background required!
