SOMATIC PRACTICE FOR RESILIENCE/RESISTANCEThursdays 6:30-7:30pm 10 weeks February 13th-May 3rd No class: 2/27 & 4/17 Back-up class: 5/8 Facilitated by Amanda Franz Masked/Test to Unmask A weekly community of practice of gently guided body-based somatic practices to center, presence, move and grow capacity; reshaping ourselves together, within community. If you, like me, are choosing to live this precious life in the challenging (and beautiful) change work of unlearning colonization and white body supremacy, Of reducing harm and dreaming collective liberation, Of building new systems/structures/relationships that are aligned with values of safety, belonging and dignity, Then you know that we'll need to practice new ways of being, together. You know that this work is immense and multifaceted, and that our bodies, as fractals, are also a part of that change. You know that we can't do this alone, and that the repatterning of ourSelves happens with and between others. This invitation is to join a community of practice. Together, we'll practice centering our bodies voices and wisdom by making space to slow down, listen and tend. Together, we'll practice being human, finding movement in stuck places and offering compassion. Together, we'll co-regulate in the fullness of this time of violence, genocide and planetary destruction. Together, we'll make space to show up for ourselves, within community, and to grow capacity, so that we may continue to show up for the long haul. This practice space is for all bodies who are moving and dreaming in big and small ways, towards a future where safety, dignity, belonging and the resources to live are available for all. QTBIPOC welcome. Let's practice being bodies together.
