I am a founding member of Open Floor International. A creative collaboration of seasoned movement teachers with a culmination of many years of experience, facilitation and teaching in many types of movement , therapeutic and artistic practices.
Across the world our teachers offer a wide range of classes and workshops dealing with all kinds of topics and themes through the lens of conscious movement. We are also a training organisation enabling people to learn how to use movement as a means of supporting others in classes and workshops all over the world.
At it’s base we use a map of ten core dynamic movement resources to explore how it is to be here in a living body. Through the map we can look at the workings of our mind, our personal histories, our creativity, emotional landscape and sexuality. Our life force, shadows and light. Our capacity for healing.
We explore how it is to be in community, deepen into our own sense of self and keep expanding an awareness of who we are in these bodies, hearts, minds, souls and spirits of ours.
I am a faculty member offering classes, workshops, supervision and mentoring in the Open Floor curriculum. There is so much to read, explore and be inspired by on our website www.openfloor.org
