electric presence //
a body on earth
an inward journey *
a direct personal experience, to encounter the body, the internal landscape. exploring space between sacred theatre as a deepening into the unseen, and the theatre of distraction. Seeking balance though experimentation and curiosity, opening the sensually complex in simple acts.
technique, intention and the naturally-arising *
“a being with such sensitive jewels as the eyes, such enchanted musical instruments as the ears, and such fabulous arabesque of nerves as the brain” Alan Watts on the human being
There is clear science and structural patterning, that dictates how everything finds optimum flow. There are also many subtle influences and aspects.
Yoga, through precise technique, creates a safe space to unearth the patterns stored in the body.
One of the gifts of this refined technique, is an increased availability of relaxed awareness, the Taoist Wu Wei – ‘effortless action’, to be in harmony with nature, which is effortlessly harmonious in its continuous action.
Developing this has the potential to transform all aspects of inner and outer life.
balancing act *
BREATH / FORM / MIND / ENERGY / AWARENESS / IMAGINATION – the multilayered body-mind-being. To create practice that engages and attunes across dimensions. Our ‘natural’ state is harmony, and we live in a world, immersed in a culture, that piques and tweaks that natural state in an ecstatic and chaotic frenzy. Taking time daily, weekly, monthly, or when called, to come back in, and remember the shapes we make, allows fullness of play in the theatre of it all.
