Dance Therapy - Mini Series: Conscious movement for emotional support
January-Fabruary dance-therapy group meetings with Katrina Menshikova.
We dance, draw, enjoy scented oils to make our way through winter with pleasure and interest.
Time: Friday evening, from 8 to 10 pm. Dates: January 3, 10, 17, 24, February 7 2025.
What are we going to practice:
🔹 acknowledging bodily sensations 🔸 expanding movement patterns range 🔹 looking into interconnection of body parts 🔸 establishing connection with feelings 🔹 exploring movement as an instrument of emotional expression
The main topic to run through all the warm-ups will be posture awareness: diagonals in the body, interconnection of the limbs, foot/shoulders and pelvis/jaw coordination, centers of gravity, fascia structures.
The core principles of the meetings:
Don't look for the right/acceptable movement. Act without judging yourself and the others.
Surprise yourself. Withhold no prejudices and dogmas towards your way of movement.
Be authentic. Do not try to please anyone, do not try so hard to be unique and special. You already are.
All tasks are just invitation. They are meant to be a challenging, but pleasant exploration. If you are not ready for something, feel free to try something else.
Take care of yourself and others. Both physically and emotionally.
We communicate in English and Russian, I will speak both languages and translate if necessary.
To reserve a spot in the group, you will need to send a pre payment of 30 euros and pay the rest at the first meeting (if the group won't happened, you will get 30 euro back). Early bird price - 120 euro (prepayment to be sent before December 22th); from December 23rd - 140 euro.
