Whether you are exploring a new relationship or one that is decades old, the innovative movement exercises will inspire new ways of discovering your partner.
Overview
When we seek intimacy, we embark on a journey. Over time, we slowly move from one mode of consciousness into another. From the more familiar, powerful thinking/doing brain to a more easeful, relaxed mind. We also come into heightened awareness and appreciation of the sensing, feeling body.
Before diving into the movement exercises, the course begins with a series of short lectures that lay the groundwork for success in the rest of the course. These lectures explore topics like the senses, language, and breathing. At certain times, we will engage some senses and not others. We will differentiate between the use language versus sound as we move into intimacy.
Once the groundwork is laid, we then explore how best to prepare ourselves and our spaces for the journey. How to begin. How to end. How to gather and share helpful feedback. How to make the best use of the movement material to have the most fun.
The movement exercises are the heart of the course. Each section includes video of participants demonstrating the exercises. Note: the demonstrators only met the day of the filming! If they can do it, so can you! Voice over instructions will help guide you. After each exercise, a downloadable list of questions will be provided to help you speak about and learn from your experiences.
