Form and Space, an Embodiment Event with Dr. Hillary L. McBride, PhD.

This event is open to the community, not just providers! 

This event is about creating the space to step outside of the ways of being a body that are structured, familiar, and prescribed, to tune into our bodily voice, and practice moving in a way that feels authentic, giving unexplored or unexpressed places inside of us form through our movement and words. When what is inside of us moves into the space around us, we can begin to encounter the stillness that lives inside.

The two and a half hours will consist of free movement (ecstatic dance), writing, and group sharing. For those of you new to free-movement, the purpose of this is choice and bodily autonomy while engaging with movement to play, express, and experience your bodily wisdom. You get to choose how you want to move your body. If that means laying down and listening to the music, connecting to your wild self, or waltzing your inner critic back and forth, all of it is just as it should be. This is a space for you to practice moving how you want to move, and then have time to write and verbally integrate the experiences you have. If money is an issue let us know, we would love to find a way for you to come no matter what.

Please bring some water, your journal and a pen, and wear loose clothing to move in with layers to remove as you warm up. We will be moving with shoes off.

We are currently searching for a place to host this event. We WILL be in Asheville, NC and will post the location soon!
