Movement Practices

Movement practices

Movement is life, and life is movement. For me it comes down to this and especially in times when I feel stuck I've learnt to look back inside of me and ask "How am I not moving? Where am I not moving?"

There are different modalities of movement present in my life, that are actually weaving in and out, creating unique tapestry that keeps me alive, curious, receptive and moving.

Dance has been in my life since I remember, vanishing for some years because of distorted experience, only to come back and kick off the coming to whole-me process. I am grateful for Ecstatic dance in Berlin and Goa for being the initiators into the realm of Contact Improvisation Dance, which have become part of my every cell, every breath, every step.

Contact Improvisation spaces are mirrors for everything in my life. I can see myself there while being in contact and having fun. So most often you'll see me on these dance floors.

Yoga has been actually longer part of my life than CI, and has created a foundation for my mindfulness practices also. I became a certified Yoga Instructor in 2018 in this amazing authentic ashram in Rishikesh, where my physical, also mental and spiritual body was stretched enough to allow new perspectives to come in. Since then I've been enjoying sharing these practices, in person as well as online, often guiding newcomers into this beautiful realm of uniting body, mind and heart. In the next month I'll be part of additional training of Yoga for Pregnancy, being able to understand this phase of woman's life and offer support from this understanding.

Another unity is happening in my personal research in the realm of Body Mind Centering© by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen. Here my enthusiasm of connecting dots and going deeper has found its limitless resources. I've come to understand my body from very unusual angles and it has found its way into my mindfulness or yoga classes too. Since 2021 I'm embarking on a new exciting journey under BMC wings, Somatic Movement Educator program, and Infant Developmental Movement Educator program, where I will discover new dots to connect. To create every day more wholeness and inclusivity, through movement of body, mind, heart, and its expressions.

Get in touch if you would be interested in individual or group movement sessions.

I'm creating based on my own curiosity (see below and write me if you want to join) and also based on the need of you and your group.

I'm open to collaborative projects and performative projects in the realm of CI, BMC, others.
