February Authentic Movement
Authentic Movement is a simple yet profound practice of self-awareness and discovery. Listening to the body, and finding movement from within, we explore the dance of presence, witnessing ourselves and others as awake and open as possible.
AUTHENTIC MOVEMENT WORKSHOP
Saturday, February 20, 2:30pm-5:30pm $45
In this workshop we explore our deeper selves through the practice of Authentic Movement. We will open to our bodies, listening internally in new and expansive ways. By giving over to what is not yet known we are moved into authenticity, surprise & deep enjoyment. A wonderful to way to go inside and emerge renewed and connected. Open to all.
...And the next workshop will be on Saturday, March 13, 2:30-5:30pm
To register or for information about Body-Oriented Psychotherapy contact Susan Baum at (206) 778-9183 or authenticmovement (at) hotmail.com or www.susanbaumtherapy.blogspot.com. Pre-registration is required.

Feldenkrais and More in February
Dance Art Group / Movement Arts Research
Thursdays 6:30-8:30pm
Velocity Dance Center, Studio 3, 915 E Pine St, 3rd floor
$15/class; series discounts; drop-ins and all experience levels welcome
Info at http://www.danceartgroup.org/velocity-series.html
DAG/MAR features weekly classes in improvisation, performance, creative process and composition, contact improvisation, somatic education, New Dance techniques and other dance realms, with a different local teacher/topic each month.
February 4-25: LILA HURWITZ / FELDENKRAIS & FRIENDS
The Feldenkrais Method is a subtle and powerful system of neuromuscular re-education that evokes changes in muscular tone, flexibility, coordination, attention, and the comfort and efficiency of movement. We'll explore some classic Feldenkrais lessons, do some anatomy review to remind ourselves of the brilliant ways our bodies are designed to move, and delve into issues common to dancers. And we'll play with integrating those awarenesses while dabbling in an array of fabulous improvisational and perceptual practices including Authentic Movement, Contemplative Dance Practice, and the Tuning Score.
Lila is a Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner who has been teaching since 1987, including one of Seattle's longest-running weekly Feldenkrais classes since 1995. She likes to think she introduced Portland, OR, to Authentic Movement in the late 1980s, and learned from and has performed the Tuning Score with Karen Nelson and originator Lisa Nelson. She learned Contemplative Dance Practice from creator Barbara Dilley while on an ACDFA scholarship at Naropa University in 1987. She's performed with Karen Nelson, Lisa Nelson, Stephanie Skura, Bebe Miller, Ann Carlson, Crispin Spaeth, Nina Martin, Mary Oslund, Linda K. Johnson and many others.
Coming in March: Vanessa DeWolf
Coming in April: Nala Walla
