SUMMARY:Embodiment and Movement Day
DESCRIPTION:In America today\, we’re more disconnected and disembodied than ever. We spend our days in front of screens\, rarely moving\, quietly overwhelmed\, and holding onto stress and emotion we don’t always realize we’re carrying. So many of us have grown to fear physical connection\, a fundamental human need. In the wake of the pandemic and an epidemic of loneliness\, we’ve become more sharply aware that we are starved for presence\, community\, and physical connection. Fortunately\, it doesn’t have to be that way. We can come back to ourselves\, to our hearts\, to community\, and the parts of us that we have been disconnected from through safe\, non-sexual touch\, movement\, somatics\, and shared presence. \nJoin us for an Embodiment & Movement Day\, a full-day community event designed to create a safe place to explore\, learn\, and connect through different embodiment and movement modalities and consent work. There will also be opportunities to meet different bodywork and energy work practitioners in the community. This is a space to soften what’s been hardened\, to move what’s been stuck\, and to remember what it feels like to belong: in your body\, and in community. The day culminates in a live DJ jam session\, where we welcome the different types of embodiment and movement explored in workshops to be combined in a safe\, full-community container. \n* Participants must attend at least 1 workshop to participate in the jam. No one turned away for lack of funds. Contact us if cost is a barrier. $15-$20/workshop $40-$60 for full day/unlimited workshops $10-$20 for open jam \n~~~ \n**Workshop Schedule** \n9:30am: Opening Mindful Movement with Grant Rizvi • 20 minutes \n10:00am: Compassionate Touch for Deep Connection with Tim Lewandowski and Becca Phillips • 90 minutes \n10:00am: Vibrating into Vibrant Aliveness: Tension Release Exercises (TRE) with Matt Krolick • 90 minutes \n11:45am: Reiki Dance: Energy Healing Through Movement with Daniel Montoya and Dani Bentz • 90 minutes \n11:45am: Thai Partner Massage with Lee Ann Song • 90 minutes \n1:15pm: Potluck Lunch and Community Consent and Harm Reduction Talk with Adam Greenberg • 60 minutes \n2:15pm: Sonic Shake-Up with Wren Medina • 20 minutes \n2:45pm: Embodied Vocal Expression with Selah • 90 minutes \n2:45pm: Contact Beyond Contact with Nathaniel Mahieu • 90 minutes \n4:30pm: Mirror & Merge: A Contact Improv Workshop with Gabrielle Fiedor • 90 minutes \n4:30pm: Soul Dance with Shün • 90 minutes \n6:00pm: Dinner Break 60 minutes \n7:00pm: Open Jam live DJ set by Smalankas • 2 hours \n___________ \nIf you have any questions\, contact Becca Phillips: \nPhone: 781-690-0525 \nEmail : rebeccajemmaphillips@gmail.com
