SHAPING EXPERIENCES
An exploration of relationship and movement: This class is an exploration of movement in relation to another: Our postures, gestures, facial expressions and movements translate into conscious and unconscious meaning that change as awareness and new possibilities of movement arise. In this structured and supportive experiential class, we will explore movement and our interpersonal patterns. Some discussion will deepen understanding of what is discovered through direct experience, personal and interpersonal processes. Our life is one continuous web of shared sensory experience. As awareness arises throughout the class work, participants will have the opportunity to experience greater aliveness, ease, and well being internally, as well as with others.
