Sensory Subtleties – Feldenkrais Method meets Contact Improvisation

This event has passed Get tickets

Event description

Feldenkrais is a guided meditation in movement; exploring how movement connects throughout your whole body.

Contact Improvisation extends sensory awareness to how two bodies move together through a moving point of contact.

This workshop is an introduction to these two somatic practices. It’s both an opportunity to enrich your sensory perception for those already familiar with one of these disciplines whilst also being deliberately designed to be accessible for those with no prior experience.

We’ll explore:

  • Tactile ‘information’
  • Playing with directions that are available in different positions / points of contact
  • Injury prevention - awareness of self and other
  • Following the path of least resistance

This 4 hour workshop is facilitated by Shona Lee and Eamonn O’Flaherty.

Shona has been teaching Feldenkrais since 2016 and a professional massage therapist since 2010; she loves the sensory self-discoveries that both Feldenkrais and Contact Improvisation offer through connected, exploratory playfulness.

Eamonn has been a dedicated Contact Improv dancer and teacher for over a decade. Having experienced how life changing it can be to practice such a challenging, honest and endlessly deep form, he seeks to share that great gift with the world.
