BREEMA - The Art of Being Present

Breema Weekend Workshop

Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 March, 2014

In this workshop we will work with Breema partner sequences and Self-Breema exercises as an introduction to body-mind connection, a cornerstone of the art of being present.

Practicing Breema supports connecting with others while deepening your connection with yourself, supporting you to become present and remain present.

Breema offers us practical steps to establish body-mind connection by unifying mind, body and feelings. When you are present, others are supported to be present.

We will work with the Nine Principles of Harmony and learn and practice Breema bodywork and Self-Breema exercises, living expressions of a profound understanding of the unity of all life.

Dancing the Nine-Pointed Star

Experiencing the Enneagram of the Holy Ideas 

through the Dances of Universal Peace

with N'Shama Stirling, Kibriya Renie Hope, Alia Calendar

The Enneagram provides a map of consciousness to help us better understand ourselves and others. This workshop offers participants an opportunity to experience the Enneagram of the Holy Ideas, which provides a glimpse of reality as it is when not viewed through the lens of our personality.

Through the medium of the Dances of Universal Peace, we move out of the mode of thinking about the Enneagram into experiencing spiritual presence and intelligence directly. These dances are a form of meditation-in-motion,combining simple circle dances with singing of sacred phrases, honoring the unifying core of the world's spiritual traditions.

Dances will be selected to exemplify the Enneagram of the Holy Ideas. Each dance will be selected to invoke the Holy Idea for each point of the Enneagram followed by a brief discussion of the experience.

Turning our attention toward and opening ourselves to be touched by the Holy Ideas is one way to begin the journey to our true self.

Friday 14th September  7.00 - 10.00 pm

Saturday 15th September  9.00 am - 5.00 pm

Joy of Being (2) - Feldenkrais and the Inner Body

This is the second in the Joy of Being workshop series which began last July. We'll discover how we see ourselves, others, how we approach the world and how our thoughts about all of that determine our experiences. You are not a collection of bad habits and tendencies that you have to fight with every day of your life! You can access the presence within that gives you peace.

Friday 28 October: Introductions and Feldenkrais: Anatomy of Grace 6.00-9.00 pm

Saturday 29 October: Feldenkrais, Dance, Yoga 9.00 am-12.00 pm

and Water Sense in the therapy pool 2.00-5.00 pm

Sunday 30 October: Aikido: the art of peace, the power of love 9.00 am-12.00 pm

Our themes will be Presence - what does it mean to be present? biography - how does our 'story'

relate to our identity? and Connection - the imperative to stay connected!
