Register here.
After the transformative past few years, many of us simply need the time and space to feel, reconnect, and gently listen to ourselves. This workshop is a moment to be with yourself, your body, and other people wanting to do the same.
I warmly invite you to join me for an intimate and transformative embodied depth psychology workshop. Qoya Inspired Movement and the wisdom of depth psychology dreamwork will guide us in deeply connecting with our bodies and listening to the whispers of our souls. A particular focus of this workshop will be working with a dream in order to listen to the messages of the unconscious.
In this workshop, we'll explore the expressive language of Qoya, a mindful movement practice that blends elements of dance, yoga and sensual movement, with the principles of depth psychology, to sense into the layers of our hearts and bodies that have been quieted through the day-to-day busyness of our lives.
No previous dance experience is required; this workshop is open to women in all embodied expressions of this gender.
What to wear and bring:
Comfortable clothing you can move in, something you would wear to yoga or other movement classes.
Water, a journal and pen.
Yoga mats, blankets, and props will be provided, but feel free to bring your own if you prefer.
Optional: a dream that you’ve experienced recently or a recurring dream that you want to explore. If you don’t have a dream or are not interested in this aspect of the workshop, you are welcome to use the space as you need and I will support you in finding what you need in the workshop.
