Authentic Movement, Movement Observation & Analysis. and Somatic Movement Sequencing sit naturally alongside one another. They offer complementary ways to accumulate the skills to holds space, to see clearly, and to design content that supports movement education and integration in the people you teach or support.
The three weekend trace this arc sequentially, while working as stand-alone units of study.

You can book each separately or we have scheduled them so that you develop what you learn and practice in Authentic Movement into specific skills you can use in your professional settings

WHAT IS THE SERIES ABOUT?
Authentic Movement deepens your capacity to be present with inner experience — your own, and others. Movement Observation & Analysis sharpens your ability to see what is actually happening in movement, and to describe it with precision. Somatic Movement Sequencing employs these skills in the design of group or client sessions. Together, they form a grounded, practical foundation for working more somatically in any professional context.
