We're partnering with multi-disciplinary artist Catherine Stewart as part of her Institute Project with the Jacob’s Pillow Curriculum in Motion® Institute to bring this workshop for embodied expression, connection, and collective power to the community.
Movement Before The Movement is designed to reconnect you with your body as a site of emotional intelligence, resistance, and resilience. Through a series of guided prompts, you’ll explore gesture, bodily autonomy, and movement-based storytelling to uncover personal truths and tap into individual action. The process centers on physical sensation over explanation, asking: What does the body know before the brain makes a decision?
This workshop requires no previous movement experience and is suitable for adults of all identities, body types, and movement backgrounds. The facilitation approach is trauma-informed, consent-forward, and non-hierarchical, offering each participant full agency over their experience. Be sure to wear clothes comfortable to move in.
If cost is a barrier, please reach out directly to facilitator Catherine Stewart at
