SUMMARY:Medicine Dance Immersion\, Big Island Hawai'i 2018
DESCRIPTION:Mindful Movement Talking Story\nBig Island\, 2018\nMindful Movement Talking Story is a workshop dedicated to exploring the confluence of movement\, words\, and embodied witnessing: listening to the stories that the body carries\, to the movement of the body that longs to be expressed\, and to the impulses of the body that most deeply represent what is meant by the idea of the ‘self’ as an awareness created through relationship. Each of our six days of this retreat is divided up into a morning of movement exploration of autonomy and communion\, afternoon explorations of group dynamics in the thrilling nature of coastal Hawaii\, evening council focusing on group-supported explorations of the individual psyche\, the effect of loving group attention on the natural impulses toward communion and healing. \nIn morning sessions participants are guided through explorations of free-form improvisational movement inspired by music\, silence\, and deep compassionate witnessing. In the traditions of Medicine Dance (www.medicinedance.com)  participants are encouraged to find and follow their body’s own deepest impulses rather than follow imperatives of choreography or other people’s expectations\, even when in partnership. This attention to somatic signals allows participants to gain a deeper experience of the shifting awareness and differentiation among sensations\, feelings\, emotions\, and cognitions\, inspiring what Somatic Psychology describes as bottom-up processing. \nBy practicing moving the body in community and relationship while always in the context of autonomy\, participants of this workshop hone the skills essential for psychological and spiritual growth and healing: empathic attunement\, embodied witnessing\, differentiating and integrating sensation/emotion/cognition/self and other; supporting profound healing through a liberation of the body’s eloquent but wordless impulses. \nAfternoons we move as a group into the natural coastal environments nearby\, investigating the intersections of the natural world with the psyche\, especially using the nearby lava-heated warm ponds to practice partner and group experiments in assisted floating and meditation. \nThe evening sessions integrate the morning’s somatic awareness practice with the stories we carry consciously and unconsciously. In the group tradition of the Threefold Way (www.threefoldway.com)\, we explore eliciting\, holding\, and embodying the narratives that implicitly mold and define our sense of our ‘self’ and each other. Compassionate witnessing and holding allow us to release the unconscious psychic and somatic adaptations that we once had to make to survive our developmental challenges. Together we explore different modes of holding a container for other people’s stories through group limbic attunement\, role-playing\, group movement\, music making\, and aspects of therapeutic touch. \nWe offer CE credits for psychotherapists\, psychologists\, psychoanalysts\, nurses\, social workers\, and dentists.

SUMMARY:'See Hear Love: As a Tree' UK Medicine Dance Facilitation Training
DESCRIPTION:‘See Hear Love: As a Tree’ Facilitation Training and Laboratory is for long term Movement Practitioners with passionate desire to share physical experience that may induce – Love\, Exquisite Awareness\, a sense of Good\, Right Livelihood\, Healthy Relationship and State of Being in the world by using techniques to join in with already existing Source Energy.  \nThis immersion is a developing science and study of PRESENCE. The acknowledgement and knowing that my state of being\, my vibrational being\, affects all present. With consciousness and intention I can choose to affect an other and others. As a practitioner\, as a student of the state of my physical body and its present moment condition\, I can become aware\, present\, awake\, more and less agitated\, active\, still\, quiet – whatever I desire at whatever level of skill and practice I have – and affect another body or a group body.  \n\nVaslav Nijinsky said: “I am God in the body. Everyone has this feeling\, only nobody uses it. I do use it. I know its effects. I love its effects…”  \n\nIf you love its effects\, if you feel spirit/source in your body and would love to share it\, if you would love to share it by dancing with yourself and other(s)\, by inviting others to see you dancing\, and/or by inviting others to dance\, this is the laboratory/training for you. \nThursday\, June 1; 9:30 AM – 6:30 PM\n Friday\, June 2; 9:30 AM – 6:30 PM\nSaturday\, June 3; 9:30 AM – 6:30 PM\nPlease visit our Facilitation Training page for more information.

SUMMARY:Medicine Dance Immersion in Northumberland\, England 2016
DESCRIPTION:Permission to Enter\nA Way of Pausing\, Sensing INSIDE\, and Responding\n7th annual Northumberland\, UK Immersion\, 2016\n\n\n\nWe are preparing to go to lands that we have come to love in the Northeast corner of England\, just below her border with Scotland.  Called Northumberland\, a county whose population is said to average 2.5 people per square mile.  Lots of Hawthorne\, old growth Oak\, rolling green hills and sheep. \nLast year we had the pleasure of bringing 5 Americans with us and we had a blast.  Went to Edinburgh\, Scotland first\, where we do an offering at a magical studio called Salisbury Centre\, took a train down to the quaint coastal village called Alnmouth\, and then we danced for five days in the middle of countryside at Bolton Village Hall outside of Alnwick.  From there\, some left for London\, some traveled to France\, one went to Finland.  Anything is possible! \nWe will work with: Inner-directed self guided fluid movement through the Body supported by Thought and Feeling and Sensation\, Word and Witness and Music;  Silence and Stillness and Sound; Spontaneous Ceremony\, Ground and extraordinary Breath.  Mindful touch with more and less contact with partners\, always optional based on your level of comfort\, sense of safety and desire. \n*This year’s theme is inspired by our long-term friend and fellow dancer\, Daniel Leighton’s recent show at Gallery 825 in Los Angeles\, CA (closing Friday).  Daniel says: “…the necessity to have a space in which to process physical and emotional responses to constant stimuli is paramount…  He explores the concept of granting access to our hearts\, minds\, and bodies along with technological extensions of ourselves. Leighton posits that the choice of granting or not granting ‘permission to enter’ is primary to symbiotic human interaction.”
