Description: At the very beginning of each session, 20 to 30 minutes of explorations inspired by various approaches in somatic education are offered to you. Each session is an opportunity for new discoveries. The body provides multiple entry points where we can go to meet it and then from there to meet the other.
The guidance is initially an invitation to “come home” to enter the body, to occupy the places of our body, to inhabit it fully.
Then, welcome what emerges, let the body guide us with complete confidence and see, over the course of the dances that follow one another, our intertwined stories unfold.
What laughter, delight, contentment and well-being!
The Wednesday jam usually takes place without music, although the voice and sounds produced by the body participate in the dance that is created and their expression is welcome. Musicians can also join in on occasion. There is a piano in the room.
The guided part at the beginning is followed by the “jam” according to the usual free formula. People who do not wish to participate in the initial explorations are welcome to the “jam” from 7 p.m.
