SUMMARY:Earth to Sky: The Body-Sea In Between
DESCRIPTION:A Continuum Workshop with Amber Gray \nAs 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 workshop weaves breath and sound together with movement sequences to restore our wholeness. \nContinuum is a wonderful self care\, movement and life practice for healers and therapists. A practice that 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\, teaches 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. \nThis workshop is open to movement artists and practitioners\, performers\, therapists\, body workers and all those committed to a deep exploration of how life reveals itself in each and every breath. \nWHEN: Saturday – Sunday\, 2 & 3 March\, 2019\, 11am – 5pm\nWHERE: Level 3 Rialto South Tower\, 525 Collins St\, Melbourne\nCOST: Early Bird – AUD 375 (before 31 January) Full – AUD 425 (after 31 January) \nFor more information and registration:\nZac Jones\, 0410660508\, zacjones77@yahoo.com.au\nor Amber Gray\, amber@ecentral.com \n \nEarth to Sky Flyer

SUMMARY:Body As Voice: Restorative Movement Psychotherapy For Survivors Of Trauma
DESCRIPTION:Centro Om Yoga\nCastellata 10/A – Bologna \nAmber is returning to Europe to offer her unique body\, movement and rhythm-based framework for promoting resiliency and processing traumatic experience in clients who are survivors of traumatic life events. \nThis 3-part training is based on the facilitator’s 20 years experience as a Dance Movement Therapist and Somatic Psychotherapist specializing in interpersonal trauma\, including torture treatment\, refugee mental health\, ritual abuse\, childhood trauma and human rights violations\, in crosses cultural contexts. Part 1 and 2 are currently approved for ADTA Alternate Route (Graduate Level) Training\, and Part 3 is in process. \nThe training emphasizes: \n\nOngoing cultivation of somatic self-awareness\, self-compassion and self-love\,\nPrevention and mitigation of vicarious trauma\,\nEnhancing somatic listening skills\,\nContact\, connection and relatedness through promotion of internal state-shifting and social engagement\n“State-shifting” to resource through the body\, and dampen negative affect\,\nIntegrate breath\, body and movement based practices and processes into trauma processing to restore meaning and belonging.\n\n“This training transformed my embodied knowledge of trauma\, its process and healing trajectory. On top of unpacking important theories\, the course is especially thorough in integrating opportunities for experiential understanding. I really appreciated the rich case studies and demos Amber brings into the course\, and opportunities to work in smaller groups or dyads to explore therapeutic applications and our own relationship to this work. Perhaps the most powerful for me\, Body as Voice helped restore and enhance my own self-compassion and a more authentic presence with others.” \nVIEW PDF FLYER \nVIEW EVENTBRITE EVENT FOR TICKETS AND MORE INFORMATION

SUMMARY:Amber is Presenting on her Work with Refugees at The American Dance Therapy Association Conference in San Antonio\, Texas
DESCRIPTION:HYATT REGENCY SAN ANTONIO\n123 Losoya Street – San Antonio \nNever has the field of psychotherapy been filled with such hope and promise. From the world of neuroscience we are learning of the astonishing capability of the human brain and nervous system for plasticity and renewal. At the same time\, the fields of psychology and other applied sciences are detailing the role of the body\, movement and interpersonal connection in healing the deepest psychological wounds. These tracks of inquiry\, while previously parallel\, are beginning to intersect in a place long familiar to dance/movement therapists: body and movement as pathway to resilience\, healing and connectedness. \nThus\, this year’s conference theme is a call to dance/movement therapists to make explicit the knowledge we have known implicitly for 60+ years. \nHYATT REGENCY SAN ANTONIO 123 Losoya Street\, San Antonio\,\nTX 78205\nMake your hotel reservations here\nADTA rate is $185 per night + tax; available until October 1\, 2017\nor until rooms are filled \nEach person makes their own reservation\, and if you are planning on having a roommate\, make sure the hotel gets their name(s) on your room reservation as well. Then if you and your roommates get to the hotel at different checkin times\, their name will be in the system and they will be able to get a room key. If you are looking for a roommate for the conference\, please contact Renee\, info@adta.org \nVIEW CONFERENCE WEBSITE FOR INFORMATION

The film perfectly exemplifies inhabiting the body\, moving the world. \nAre you curious about this summer’s Somatic Immersion? Read on to find out what’s happening “behind the scenes” in this 5-day exploration of Continuum’s contribution to the body of somatic knowing as it plays out through our personal and collective lives. \nIt’s more than serendipitous that Omega and Watermark Arts are bringing forth this workshop together. Nested in the landscape of the Hudson Valley\, every aspect of the Omega site has been developed in consonance with the natural environment. We will have five days to dissolve into Continuum practice\, nature and art\, while being met with great hospitality. There is a range of accommodations for every taste and budget. This year Omega is also welcoming a new chef\, who focuses on delicious\, quality\, locally-sourced food. Please join us! \nVIEW FULL EVENT INVITE

SUMMARY:Psoas Above\, Psoas Below: Embodying Ground and Sky
DESCRIPTION:Level 3 Rialto South Tower\n525 Collins St. – Melbourne \nThe psoas is a deep core muscle\, connecting legs to spine\, and often referred to as the muscle of the soul by ancients and mystics. It stabilizes\, and affects mobility\, flexibility\, balance and more. \nThe psoas spirals\, fans and webs as it connects our core to our ground. This class explores the psoas as a muscle-moving -continuum from core strength to spiraling dancer that may increase our capacity for moving diversity. Moving from the emergent evolutionary “edges” of the psoas\, we play with it as a promoter of flexibility\, freedom and fluidity. That the psoas is important to physical and emotional health is well known; this class will also explore moving relationships between the psoas\, heart and head using simple sound streams\, movement sequences and breath. \nWHERE: Level 3 Rialto South Tower 525 Collins St\, Melbourne $225 early bird paid in full by 10/4; $250 afterwards.\n$450 for both workshops \nFor more information and registration:\nContact Zac Jones\n0410660508\nzacjones77@yahoo.com.au \nAmber Gray\namber@ecentral.com \nVIEW PDF FLYER

DESCRIPTION:Level 3 Rialto South Tower\n525 Collins St – Melbourne \nA trembling in the bones may carry a more convincing testimony than the dry documented deductions of the brain – Llewellyn Powers \nThe sacrum\, described in Hindu as the “Seat of the Soul”\, is a keystone structure in our human bodies. From its anatomical function to its place as sacred triangular and heart shaped seat of creativity\, divinity and intelligence\, the sacrum is initiator and recipient of wave motion; root and support; tail\, portal\, inner sanctum\, and a source of fluid movement and pleasure. This day long Continuum immersion combines breath\, sound and movement to inspire moving through and from the sacrum as a continuum of core strength and serpentine flow. \nCOST: $225 early bird paid in full by 10/4; $ 250.00 after. $450.00 for both workshops. \nInfo & Registration: Contact Zac Jones: 0410660508\, zacjones77@yahoo.com.au

SUMMARY:Amber Gray and colleague Tarrie Burnett spoke on their programs for to empower Refugee Women at the UN Convention on Women
DESCRIPTION:ON THE STATUS OF WOMEN\n\nThe sixty-first session of the Commission on the Status of Women took place at the United Nations Headquarters in New York\, from 13 to 24 March 2017. Representatives of Member States\, UN entities\, and ECOSOC-accredited non-governmental organizations (NGOs) from all regions of the world attended the session. The themes of this years session were: \n\nPriority Theme: Women’s economic empowerment in the changing world of work\nReview Theme: Challenges and achievements in the implementation of the Millennium Development Goals for women and girls (agreed conclusions of the fifty-eighth session)\nEmerging Issue/Focus Area: The empowerment of indigenous women\n\nAmber Gray\, Restorative Resources Director\, was a presenter at the Forum. Amber co-presented with colleagues from The University of New Mexico\, The Turkish House\, and Lutheran Family Services. Amber’s presentation focused on a framework LFS piloted to provide group therapy to Afghan women\, who are recently arrived refugees\, using a public/mental health and creative arts therapy approach. This group fosters a restored sense of belonging through connection\, empowerment\, and engagement with meaningful activities. \nThe framework is being replicated with women from Central African Republic and Democratic Republic of Congo this year. Unlike many group therapy approaches\, this framework utilizes a public health approach so the facilitators and the women can co-create the group content and process. The framework is based on Amber’s Restorative Movement Psychotherapy\, a mindfulness\, somatic and arts based approach to working with refugee and war trauma; survivors of torture; and survivors of interpersonal trauma in cross cultural contexts. Participants attending the Forum from Mozambique and Kurdistan expressed an interest in similar programs\, and Restorative Resources is currently co-seeking funds for the Kurdistan program. We are conducting research on impact on a sense of belonging\, for the second year.

SUMMARY:Continuurhythm®: Polyvagal informed Continuum at Tensegrity in Sunshine Coast\, Australia
DESCRIPTION:Tensegrity Studio\n306 Kiel Mountain Road – Kiels Mountain\, Sunshine Coast \nVery special three day workshop with Amber Gray on the Sunshine Coast. \nThe Continuum Movement\, pioneered by Emilie Conrad\, is an antidote to the challenges of an uncertain world. Continuum is a renowned self discovery method\, a revitalizing movement practice\, and a transformational life practice. \nBreath\, sound and movement sequences ranging from slow and subtle to fluidly dynamic form the basis of our three days of movement exploration. \nContinuum Movement was “born” in Haiti; inspired by the undulating movements of Haitian dancers in ceremony\, Emilie was inspired to explore the source of free\, unconstrained movement for pleasure\, for wellness\, and to counter the effects of stress\, aging\, illness\, injury\, and trauma. \nContinuurhythm® is authorized Continuum teacher Amber Gray’s unique synthesis of Haitian dance\, Dr. Stephen Porges polyvagal theory\, and Continuum. This polyvagal informed and Haitian dance inspired Continuum workshop will integrate extended movement practices with polyvagal theory and teachings from Haitian sacred tradition. It is appropriate for movers of all levels of experience and fitness\, and for those working with or living with trauma\, stress injury\, physical injury\, and chronic pain. It is also perfect for movement therapists and artists\, bodyworkers\, somatic practitioners\, psychotherapists\, healers and dancers who want to connect to the deep roots of all movement; our own inner choreographer\, the fluid\, resilient body.
