Attunement explores the connection of feeling between people and place.
This relationship is animated by the presence and experience of being alive to the world.

An opportunity to engage with a master teacher and somatic practitioner: Alice is offering this workshop to those who have experience with somatic practice along with a deep interest in moving as research. This practice is a form of knowledge making. In moving with others we deepen and expand our humanity as we navigate the space of feeling and sensing in the animate world.

During this time of the pandemic it is critical we find support whilst we re-evaluate what is important to us. The process of discernment is a refined one and it begins in the body. Recent research on interoception indicates its role in our mental health. This workshop offers the opportunity for experienced practitioners to come together in a guided practice that opens a conversation between us, through the articulation of the body. Alice will guide this practice through somatic explorations that are attuned to the body and the world we now live in. She will bring attention to the resources our bodies offer in this adaptive process: Awareness of boundaries; support of our immune system and the joy that is cultivated by moving with others. We will extend our dancing explorations through compositional scores derived from the provocations that emerge in the space together and the philosophical ground of Alice’s practice.
