Fluid Transitions: Birthing and Dying with Continuum
"I say all form is temporal. Form is designed to dissolve and reconstitute in a perpetual act of renewal. Form is movement that has become relatively stabilized for a given period of time in order to function efficiently in a specific environment. Whether this form is a marriage or a body or a career, the cycle of dissolution and resolution represents the health of any situation. Stasis and redundancy create barriers to the life-giving forces that are no longer able to communicate with us due to our various entrancements."
- Emilie Conrad, Life on Land
Ten years ago, April 14th, 2014, Emilie Conrad's life on land ended. She had taught, intrigued, and awed her students for almost 50 years, as she developed the visionary practice of Continuum.
This 3-hour Continuum class is intended to celebrate the life of this amazing mentor as we apply what she taught to our own bodies, and transitional moments we encounter. We will engage in gentle breaths, sounding, and mindful movement to inquire into our fluid nature.
Where our experience of being born and other major transitions may have been interfered with by well-meaning others, such as medical practitioners, we may remain locked in repetitive stasis, as the body-mind seeks resolution. In this class, we bring our attention to more subtle transitions as movement arises and begins to flow through us, dissolving long-held patterns of density. We emerge renewed, refreshed, perhaps even feeling re-born, ready to engage with life more fully.
