Event
Ferocious Intimacy
This workshop explores resonance between people. With a minimum of talking, we use body movement exercises to first ground into our own sovereignty as autonomous and powerful agents of our own lives. Next we engage in playful interactions to create safety and attune with your partner, such as sharing our center of gravity and other forms of mutual interdependence. Finally, we find ways of co-operating, of engaging in playful and fierce and tender forms of connection.
Through this exploration we develop neuronal pathways of pre-conscious patterning that allows us to stay connected in intimacy even when things get too intense or too close for comfort.
Human beings evolved as "hyper-social" animals, and we have pre-programmed brain circuitry and hormonal responses that enable us to directly feel into another person, and to have them receive our deep presence. We are wired to thrive on emotional sharing with trusted others, and feel more fully alive and satisfied when we connect in such a way.
This workshop "expands the container" for relationship, giving you both tools and vocabulary for asking for what you want, showing up as yourself, practicing receiving another in a way that feels safe for both, and being present and attuned.
Ferocious Intimacy workshops create a safe container in which every part of your animal nature is welcomedthe wild, fierce parts and the fragile, tender parts. Everything about you has room to be accepted, expressed and loved in our shared yearning for intimate human connection.
Workshop fee is $60 per individual (at the door $80). Work trade arrangements are also possible for fee reduction so that no one who wants to attend needs to hold themselves back. After all, this is a workshop about showing up!
No previous experience is necessary for this workshop.

FAQ's:
What should I wear? Anything that you would wear for a movement event such as Ecstatic Dance, 5 Rhythms, or a yoga class or the gym would be fine. Nothing pokey like sharp belt buckles or dangly earrings. I don't want to introduce any performance pressure, but know that you receive karmic bonus points if your apparel has elements which illuminate your inner superhero! The workshop practices expressing your personal poweryou may as well dress in a way that makes you feel heroic!
What should I bring with me? There is no convenient water fountain, so bring at least one water bottle, two would actually be easier. Also, because we expend a lot of energy, you will want to bring some finger food snacks such as fruit, nuts, juice, energy bars, or other light, sustaining foods.
