BodySongs (TM)

Livi Joy

Saturday, 11 am @ The Sanctuary

What if each and every motion and emotion vibrating through you had the opportunity to express itself through a multi-piece orchestra? What would the soundtrack of your fullest self-expression sound like? Come find out!

BodySongs is an original transformational embodiment practice, birthed into being through months of play and experimentation within an improvisational movement collective. Grounded in Authentic Movement™ and inspired by Body Tales™ this practice uses the energy and willingness of a group of movement explorers to allow each participant to embark on a unique individualized journey of ultimate embodied self expression. As one original participant proclaimed after her first BodySong, "Life will never be the same after this."

Investigate the world of Afro- Brazilian music. Internalize the beat and learn to play several percussion instruments and traditional rhythms from various regions of Brazil. Bring your own drum or use one of the limited instruments provided by the instructor.
