Tejidos Sensibles
with Eduardo Ruiz
August 16th,
10:00 am-12:00 pm
Born from a theoretical-practical research on haptic 2 perception, this encounter/workshop proposes to explore the connection between the body and the deep feeling, accessing and revealing memories inscribed on the skin. Thanks to accompaniment work, the state of activation of the present moment will be promoted, encouraging the conscious flow of emotions and gestures. From exercises inspired by various dance techniques and through a series of body experiences enriched by the work with the subtle bodies, the mobility of the fascia and the awareness of the vagus nerve, the encounter proposes the integration of the body/mind/soul facilitating the emergence of a state of authenticity, liberating, sincere and vital.
The goal of this encounter is to place the body in a state of disposition and in balance with the nervous system and the organs that compose it to agents and direct their expressions, their intentions and their gestures towards the development of a conscious corporal writing. This is a work that is based on the personal corporal experience of each participant.
