Instinctive Movement: Expanding into transitions

Movement is life, and in transition, we discover the art of presence. 

Instinctive Movement: Expanding into Transitions is an immersive 2-day workshop where the wisdom of Contact Improvisation Dance and Zen Thai Shiatsu Bodywork Therapy weave together, inviting you into a deep exploration of movement, connection, and flow.

Guided by the principles of curiosity and play, this workshop is designed for movers of all backgrounds—whether you are a dancer, bodyworker, or simply someone drawn to explore embodied presence in new ways.

Through interactive exercises, solo and partnered explorations, and guided movement practices, you will:

Awaken Sensory Awareness – Develop deeper sensitivity to your own body and the shared space around you.
Cultivate Fluidity & Adaptability – Learn to move with ease through transitions, both in movement and in life.
Experience Trust & Connection – Explore safe and dynamic weight-sharing, contact, and surrender in motion.
Integrate Touch & Movement – Discover the therapeutic power of contact through Zen Thai Shiatsu principles.

Together, we will listen, respond, and play—unraveling the wisdom held in each moment of movement and stillness.

🔸 No prior experience required—just an open mind and a willingness to explore.
🔸 Suitable for dancers, movement practitioners, bodyworkers, and anyone curious about deepening their embodied practice
