Sunday March 16, 9:00 AM-1:00 PM in Flow – University of Auckland, New Zealand
Our spine is a pathway that spans our ancestral and evolutionary origins to our future potential. As axis mundi, we connect heaven and earth. As Poto Mitan, we encounter our universal center. Our spine is our core support, fluid strength and gravity dancer.
Continuum is a moving practice, inspired by the undulations of Haitian Dance, that enables us to move beyond the patterns and constraints of our “everyday body”. Through a rich variety of breath, sound and subtle movement explorations we will experience our capacity for free-flowing movement. Engaging in new ways with gravity, we invoke adaptability and core strength.
We will take brief breaks so nourish yourself beforehand and please bring snacks, nibbles and whatever keeps you nourished and hydrated. Please also bring your own yoga mat and blanket if possible because we will “nest” and be on the floor a lot. It’s helpful to have a journal or notebook to take notes in.
