Stage Gravité Danse libre adultes

La Clairière is organising the visit of Peter Wilberforce.
A weekend of 5Rythmes® dance and the Feldenkrais method.

Exploring your relationship with the present moment - finding the path to acceptance...
Sometimes it's hard to accept the reality of the present moment. We feel uncomfortable, we want to run away, to extract ourselves. So we distract ourselves, tell ourselves stories to escape...
By doing this, we lose the opportunity to consciously experience the richness of the present moment, to be fully alive in the reality of the moment, even if it's not easy.

This course explores ways of finding greater ease in our daily lives by integrating the fact that we can't be anywhere else, that nothing is fixed, that everything is in motion and constantly changing.

Gravity: by connecting with our bodies, through the anchoring sensations offered by the earth's gravity, by connecting with our breathing, with the space around us, with the world in which we live, we can encounter our way of living in the present. Let's not just seek to perfect what we do, but open ourselves up to the way in which we respond to our own injunctions. In this way, we widen our range of choices, discover new paths in life and find peace. Let's examine the possibility of establishing a more welcoming relationship with ourselves and with the reality of the present moment.
Let's invite the joy of simply accepting to walk through this world, in this body, staying awake and free to fully express our creativity - a reflection of our precious and inescapable presence, here and now.

As a toolbox: the 5Rhythms dance, the Feldenkrais Method. As a source of inspiration: nature - woods, beaches, sky, sun, wind and horizon. And the caring environment of our co-travellers - support, mirror, inspiration.
This workshop is open to everyone. Knowledge of free dance is recommended, but not compulsory. Number of participants limited to 22.

Who's Peter?
Peter is a certified 5Rhythms® teacher. He runs courses and workshops all over France and Europe. He integrates a number of body and vocal practices into his work. He also offers work on freeing the voice through conscious body movement. He is guided by the conviction that optimal, embodied learning takes place in spaces of calm and benevolent attention. His approach is based on a spirit of enquiry and encourages the acceptance of all feelings, as well as an openness to play and playfulness.
