Flow Yoga and Movement Studio, Saint Helens, Australia
As movers on an evolutionary pathway, our bodies harbor the potential for free, unconstrained, authentic movement. We have innate abilities to be fluid; to live beyond the constraints, densities and restrictions that can bind us in tension, pain, isolation or distress.
This two day Continuum playshop weaves breath and sound together with movement sequences to restore our wholeness. As individual body and as an integral part of the collective body of all things, human and more than human. Continuum is a powerful self care, movement and life practice for healers, artists, therapists, somatic practitioners, and anyone with a body – especially eldering bodies.
This practice involves simple sound streams, breathing patterns, and slow, organic movements. It restores fluidity to the body after injury and when life’s demands compromise us.
Emilie Conrad, the originator of Continuum, taught that “all fluids are basically one element, resonating with all other fluids”.
Our bodies are living systems and, like the earth, we are 70% water. Our movement roots are an ancient connection to the sea. They function as a kind of umbilical cord supplying us with the pulsing undulations of life.
This workshop is suitable for all those committed to a deep exploration of how life reveals itself in each and every breath.
