Continuum, Theory and Practice
A Reawakening of Resonance for Self Renewal
with Rebecca Lawson
January 16 - 18, 2009

In this workshop we will consider an alternative view of the body, one in which the body becomes the fuel for its own transcendence. Using sounds, dexterity of breath, and micro-movements, we shall enter a deep silent listening that takes us outside/inside ourselves to an awareness that could be called freedom. Rather than following a fixed system of postures or formalized exercises that maintain patterned structure without release, our explorations delve into the play of emerging and dissolving form. Via the body and its fluid intelligence, we shall be introduced to our essence which is non-personal and unitary. Free from assumptions and historical impositions, we become creativity in progress: always new, original, boundless, and unconditioned…truly present and alive.

No experience necessary. Just come with a curiosity about a practice that increases vitality and creates ease of movement through a resonance with our bio-intelligence. For beginners, or for those who would like to have a deeper immersion with Continuum.

The Mystery School

We will use a combination of movement, breath, sound and sensation to access our inherent bio-intelligence rooted in the fluid systems of the body. The human body is composed of 80% water, by activating and invigorating these various fluids; we penetrate the density of tissue and create a plasticity needed for graceful movement, communication, health and wholeness. These classes create an opportunity to dissolve physical and psychological blocks, thereby allowing spaciousness for deeper levels of embodiment. Each class offers instruction and demonstration followed by a “dive” experiential aspect.

These sessions will be followed by a 4 hour Immersion on December 20th as we Welcome the Dark (Winter Solstice), which is an invitation to dwell in the gestating dark where the quiver of new life begins its stir joining the slumbering earth in its silent wisdom. This will be an opportunity to experience where the markers of day/night....hours/minutes…cease to be relevant as we sink deeper into the whispering dark.

Free Your Face, Jaw, Eyes, Neck and Shoulders
There are 50 muscles in the face that express and reflect our emotional state. In this workshop we will learn new ways of sensing and moving using Embodied Awareness, micro-movements and sound to release and relax deep held tension allowing our face and body to return to its original beauty attaining internal peace and calmness, which is our birthright.

Yoga for the Nervous System
De-stress and Refresh. This event is the perfect anti-dote for the busy and fragmented lives we live especially during the holiday season.

This is an invitation for “non-doing” as we return to the body and take refuge in it. We will use props to fully support the body and move between movements and deep relaxation, stimulating the body’s natural relaxation response.

Allowing the body, mind and breath to naturally release layers of stored tension and stress, giving birth to Stillness, where effortlessness and ease of Being reside. Allowing the joyful life energy to flow and wash through you.
