 Pulsing - the front
with Silke Ziehl

2 - 4 May 09
Saturday, Sunday, 10am-6pm, £176
Bank Holiday Monday 10am-5pm

PULSING is a style of massage - through soft rotary movements and rhythmic rocking of all parts of the body it gently releases tensions, feelings, and energy, expanding the tissues, nourishing the person, creating spaciousness inside ... It is deep Reichian work without being painful, powerfully yet softly affecting the whole body-mind-spirit.

Pulsing is playing with the rhythms of the body and allowing us to reconnect to them : the rhythm of the breath, the heartbeat, peristalsis and movements of the spinal fluid - the in and out of the energy flow in all its many manifestations. It reverberates through all the body rhythms, harmonising them. Gently, we can let go of pain and tension, can expand and open, and reconnect to our inner sources of nourishment and joy.

Each Pulsing Intensive allows time for getting to know the basis of this kind of massage as it applies to either the back or the front, while focusing on expansion and contraction of the energetic wave and on following the natural pulses of the bodymind to reach deeper levels of integration.

Each intensive can count towards a training leading to certification.

Note: after the first of each intensive (The Front, The Back) you can join the next ones in the following 2 years at half the fee.

Movement for Human Being:
Feldenkrais Method Workshop

with Scott Clark
May

2009
Saturday 9 May 09
10.30am-4.30pm, £40

Where do we look to find completeness, meaning? The outer world, the realm of the consumer, of 'retail therapy'? Perhaps through a different sense of ourselves in movement, in action — a sense that includes our deepest sensation of flesh and bone, of seeing, hearing and most of all, feeling — perhaps we can find a direction that is more satisfying and more real.

(Phone Scott on 020 8469 0245 for venue.)
