PRAXIS Movement with Olive Bieringa

Monday - Friday 9.30-11.30
5 mornings

In this new series with Olive Bieringa we will focus on the breath and fluid support of our nervous system as a ground for moving and witnessing.

Body-Mind Centering® is an experiential approach to somatics that explores the connection between the mind and body through movement, touch, and perception developed by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen.

Authentic Movement is a contemplative practice in which a "mover" closes their eyes and follows inner impulses to move, while a "witness" provides a non-judgmental, receptive presence. Developed from dance therapy and Jungian psychology by figures like Mary Starks Whitehouse and Janet Adler , this practice allows for exploration of the unconscious and emotional states through the body.

Olive Bieringa is a dance, performance and visual artist working at the intersection of social and creative practice, pedagogy, and healing. She is a teacher, and practitioner of Body-Mind Centering and a program director of Somatic Education Australasia. She collaborates with Otto Ramstad as the BodyCartography Project whose mission is to engage with the vital materiality of our bodies and minds to create live performance that facilitates a re-enchantment of embodiment, relationship, and presence. She is a doctoral candidate at the Theatre Academy, Uniarts Arts, Helsinki. www.bodycartography.org
