You are invited into an experiential exploration of the creation of your body, from conception through the embryological pathways that lay the foundations of the body you have today. Discover the architecture of bones, flesh, and the immense power of blood and heart to bring a depth and power to your practice and everyday movements.
Through movement, touch, vibration, meditation and discussion, explore the seminal heart–brain axis, and other ways to harmonize body, brain and heart and to nourish your essential relationship with the natural world.
All are welcome to participate at their own level of comfort and experience.
