Free Your Body - Reconnect with your impulses and intuition

Most of us live from the neck up — trapped in thoughts, over-analysing, second-guessing. This class helps you come back into your body, where spontaneity and freedom live.

You’ll explore:

• Impulse-based movement with music, first in pairs and then solo.
• What it feels like to follow your body without judgement — letting it lead instead of your mind.
• How sound and movement interweave to create effortless expression.

Expect moments of laughter, discovery, and release. This is about reclaiming movements that feel natural to you, and gently working through blocks that keep you restricted. By the end, you’ll feel lighter, freer, and more connected to your body’s wisdom.

This workshop is a part of a series:

A 4-part series with Martina Avogadri (small group: 5–10 people)
Dates: Saturdays — 8 Nov, 15th, 22nd and 29th Nov 2025
Times: 10:00–12:00
Duration: 2 hours per session

Why this is different:
These workshops blend theatre-rooted movement and voice with coaching-style reflection to help you feel grounded, expand presence, and speak from your body—not your overthinking mind. You’ll experience Future-Self Embodiment: a guided, practical way to step into the person you’re becoming through how you move, breathe, and sound.

Who it’s for:
Professionals, creatives, and anyone who wants to get out of their head and into their body. No acting or movement experience needed—just curiosity.

You’ll leave with:

• A repeatable grounding sequence (breath + stance + focus) you can use before meetings, pitches, or performances.
• Voice tools for resonance, projection, and steadiness under pressure.
• A felt, memorable experience of your future self—in your body, not just your head.
