ce qui nous traverse. (what is passing through us.)
A dance and bioenergy healing workshop by Anne Koch & Gaëtan Rusquet
WHAT IS IT?
Through somatic, dance and bioenergy practices, we will seek to set in motion, and be in motion with. We will dance along different paths, from interiority to exteriority, and from exteriority to interiority. What manifests on the outside, if I give way to inner movements, sensations, emotions, memories present in the body?
What also manifests itself in the body, in the perception if I follow these external movements? Whether it's the wind, the sound, the textures and temperatures, the memories and qualities of a place. We will go towards a listening of the phenomena of resonance through the movement, to create passages, links, correspondences between those various spaces which one regards as separated, to thus displace what one regards as a limit with our environment, softening our relationship to matter and more generally to the world.
PROCEDURE
We will start the days with guided somatic practices, grounding exercises. Or by reintegrating one's own body, its relationship to the ground, gravity, internal and external space, breathing. Either with listening to what surrounds us, and how it animates us and puts us in motion as with the authentic movement, carried out in the garden if the weather allows it.
These practices can be done in groups and alone, where everyone takes care of their own space as sacred. Or in duo, the look or the touch of the other become a support towards a fine listening of what crosses us.
Along the way, we will also use visualizations, active meditations, derived from practices like Qiqong (shaking) to soften the perception that we have of the "I", or others practices inspired by the ecosex feminists and tantrism, to take care of the etherical body, the seat of vital energy and the pleasure of being in the world (ex: can I give pleasure to my liver? To the ground? Or to the space itself?). We will use improvisation practices through touch, to put and put back in motion, to cleanse, to unblock, to free, to give space to what needs to be recognized and perceived, and to soften the relationship we have with ourselves and to the world.
We will gradually move towards the listening of resonances, between organs, between bodies, with places, memories, and everything that crosses us and somehow "choreographs" us.
We will adapt to each person and to the group, and will use any practice that seems appropriate to us.
INTENTIONS
to anchor - come back to oneself through movement - clean and take care of our energy space - free yourself from blockages - discover passages where the "I" is not problematic, and where its blockages do not exist - calm the mind, calm the astral - to be with what perceives - listen to what is there - dancing with what is there - cultivate benevolence towards oneself and others, towards what surrounds us and crosses us - find or renew a pleasure to be in the world through dance and movement - learn by accompanying other bodies through sight, touch and movement.
FOR WHOM
Anyone wishing to develop their relationship to the world through movement, whether they are non-dancers, dancers, amateurs, professionals.
Anyone with the desire to approach movement and dance with curiosity, in a process of healing and the pleasure of being in the world. Anyone with the desire to shift their perception of the body through movement, dance, somatic practices and bioenergy healing.

COLLABORATOR
Anne Koch takes a close interest in the emotions felt by the body as storms, and the fear of experiencing them. She works on tenderness for oneself, for the life that one is, imperfect, chaotic, and yet a perfect expression of the divine. https://anne-koch.fr/
