Authentic Movement Groups 2010
Authentic Movement is a discipline emerging from Dance Movement Therapy.
The practice is one of witnessing clearly and focusing on moving and being moved.
The ground form involves two roles, that of a mover and a witness. The mover works with eyes closed and from their internal experience including sensation, emotions, images and dreaming. The witness practices the loving art of seeing clearly the other through owning their own thoughts, feelings and sensations.
This practice welcomes the unknown through spontaneous and mindful action.
The following programmes are on offer:
