Location: Heartward Sanctuary, 2196 Tom Stevens Rd, Siler City, NC 27344

We will return to the beautiful Heartward Sanctuary for the seasonally inspired subject on falling. Discover how to fall safely by letting go of unnecessary tension and surrendering to gravity while maintaining autonomy to move, adapt, and express. This somatic practice easily translates into day to day life where we can see how holding on to our patterns doesn’t always keep us safe, but make us more vulnerable to injury and limits our options.

For the martial artist or dancer examining fear can open up a much larger spectrum of creative options.

Subjects:
Breath work & Meditation
Falling, Rolling, Floor work
Studying the relationship between breath, tension, and falling safety
Falling inside vs outside
Creative and practical drills for falling in dance, martial arts, and life
Improvisational movement jam at end

All levels are welcome. Some movement experience and comfort with physical contact (dance, massage, play) is suggested.

Taught by Pasquale Antonio of Jiyu Holistic Wellness & NC Systema
