S.L.O. Motion 2: A Somatic Workshop - In Studio & Livestreamed with Julian DeVoe

The intention for this workshop is to awaken and connect with the innate wisdom of the body by moving S.L.O. — Somatic, Locomotive and Organic. Our goal is to access and illuminate the core competencies of human motion. These techniques are designed to liven the body’s natural intelligence to optimize movement efficiency, increase mobility, improve coordination and unlock healing potential.

 

SLO Motion is a synthesis of primordial movements that activate the body’s ability to perform real life movements for longevity and regeneration. We will focus on
crawling and walking. Specifically, how crawling helps with total body coherence, balance and strength so we can walk with more grace, elegance and ease. We’ll find the
sweetness and strength in the simplicity of practical and sustainable actions.


Somatic
Soma is derived from the Greek word meaning, “body.” We will explore the body’s intelligence through movements focusing on the nervous system, evolutionary pathways, and total body coherence. We’ll seek greater balance in the autonomic nervous system to help the body differentiate between active engagement & passive relaxation.


Locomotive
Our bodies are meant to move from one place to another — or locomote, under their own strength and power. These movements will inspire natural efficiency with grace and deep competence. Practical movements for everyday humans.


Organic
Organic encompasses a wide range of movements, postures, and shapes (both dynamic and static) that are an extension of our primal nature. We’ll find the flow through movement inquiries that are spontaneous, expressive, and playful.


This is a great addition to your already established yoga practice or a wonderful place to create nutritious movement habits.

 

Come join me and celebrate the gift of embodiment.
