We move… gently, smoothly and slowly.
We are still.
We feel.
We breathe.
We relax.
Stress and tension dissolve.
Whoever we are, we can learn simple,
time-honored ways to integrate body, mind, breath and senses into natural balance.
This is not an exercise
class for physical fitness. Not at all! Through slow gentle movement, we can
make a very surprising discovery... we can feel completely at home in our own
skin.
In each moment, body,
mind, breath and senses come together in a natural balance.
Instead of
feeling pressured by time, there is flow and nourishment.
Instead of being stuck in
our heads, there is all-pervading wholeness, connection, lightness and ease.
Open awareness directly embraces all experience
as it appears.
I hope you'll join me to
practice moving meditation. It's very gentle, suitable for everybody, every
body, every mind… any age, any level of mobility or strength.
The balance and
ease you discover in class, will spill over into the rest of your day.
It's already there… just waiting to be
discovered.
You can find yourself more at ease, more grounded, more
joyful, more confident, less reactive, less troubled by negative thoughts and
emotions.
Open and receptive, you can enjoy the rich play of freshly arising experience, moment by moment.
When there is integration,
the exercise does itself… there is the experience of wholeness. We can learn
this because it is already us!
“I
enjoy the movement classes …. The exercises deeply relax not only my body but
also my mind.”

stillness. Feel refreshed after every class.”
