Workshop "BODY KNOWLEDGE"

BODY KNOWLEDGE
with THIERRY FRANCOIS | VELDEN/WÖRTHERSEE, 27-29 MARCH 2026
"So the body is where the dancing path to wholeness must begin. Only when you truly inhabit your body can you begin the healing KN journey. So many of us are not in our bodies, really at home and vibrantly present there. Nor we are in touch with the basic rhythms living there. We live outside ourselves - in our
heads, our memories, our longings - absentee landlords of our own estate." Gabrielle Roth
In Greek, there are two words for Knowledge: Logos and Gnosis. Logos refers to content that can be learned, and gnosis is known through intuition. and experience. Logos can be expressed in words, gnosis is non-verbal. Every experience is subjective.
This workshop is an opportunity to experience the 5Rhythms as a map to better understand who we are and what we are when we are in motion. The 5Rhythms, Fluid, Staccato, Chaos, Lyrical, and Stillness allow us to go deep into the truth of the moment without rushing.
In our daily lives, and especially after these difficult years, we come across places of doubt, resistance, shadows that occupy the capacity of our being, we come across places of isolation and the desire to break the ties with the world.
Our experience teaches us that when we move consciously, when our awareness grows by paying attention to the events around us, it is not only a gift of our unspoken potential, but also a higher awareness of our Logos and our Gnosis.
The intention of this workshop is to deepen the different "forms" of consciousness that each of us encounters on the dance floor; yourself with yourself, yourself with a partner and with the group.
Every step is important, no matter how small. This makes this group work beautiful and powerful, and what I get in return I can integrate into my daily life.
Open to everyone without previous experience | Led in English
