For a basic description of Primal Integration please see our 'Who we are and what we do' page. The format of the group will alternate between a structured phase and a free-form phase during which what takes place is determined by what you choose to explore and what you allow to happen. The physical and psychological safety of the group is provided for by a set of basic ground rules. If you have not worked with us before, please contact us on (020) 8341 7226 (M-F 9am-9pm) to arrange an interview before booking.

Finding Your Strength:
Feldenkrais Method Workshop
with Scott Clark
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
Saturday 5 June 2010
10.30am-4.30pm, £45

In the martial arts, our strength comes from the centre — the centre of our body, of our breathing, and of our serenity. For Feldenkrais, this meant the movements of the hip joints and lower back, with constant attention to the flow of breath. And with attention as well to the quality of movement, the finer and more inward changes of flow and texture of movement, we can develop a serenity from which true strength can grow — physical strength and more.

How does my body respond to stress? How does my body help or hinder my self-assertion? Can I be spontaneous in an appropriate way? Whether or not you ask these or similar questions bioenergetics is about your capacity for pleasure and your available energy. Energy flows or doesn't within our bodies. we need to move downwards in ourselves to discover the involuntary core impulses of good feeling and how these have been interrupted by physical tension and emotional blocks.
Energizing exercises, massage, and work with posture and body image will be used in pairs and in small groups. Otherwise members' needs and their interactions will decide the specific emphases of this group. An overall aim for the weekend is embodiment of balanced functioning between head heart and gut.

Psychodrama differs from other approaches to groupwork in that the invitation is to ‘show us’ rather than ‘tell us’. Though action-based no acting skills are needed. Actual or imaginary scenes from your past, present or future are improvised by the director, yourself and the group. There is a focus on one person’s issue, ‘the protagonist’. Other group members take ‘auxiliary’ roles as family member, fellow employee or figure from a dream, through which you may get more in touch with your own concerns. These are then shared before moving to the next protagonist's psychodrama.
Besides being an enjoyable introduction to groupwork (of which you need not have any previous experience) the benefits include an increase of personal power and spontaneity and a deeper understanding of your own and others’ difficulties.
A day of exploring your inner world and acting it out.
