Tune In + Turn On: Dancing the Body Magic
FLUX + FLOW: Dance and Movement Center
August 11, 2018
Co-facilitated with Terra Divine
In this workshop, Michael J. Morris and Terra Divine lead an exploration of the body's inherent magic utilizing movement improvisation, ritual, and the tarot. How can our sensation lead us into more dynamic feeling states and a deeper sense of connection to ourselves and our worlds? What can shared movement experiences allow us to create, access, heal, and learn? Together, we practice conjuring and directing the magic of collective intention and our intuitive powers through dance, breathwork, and embodied ritual.
