Deepen Motion Workshop w/ Oliver Zafiridis Ft. Sophia Breust 4.0

Deepen Movement Workshop:

Deepening our understanding of how we move, how we adapt, how we problem solve and how we process information. 

Mixing games inspired by fighting monkey along with fascial manoeuvres inspired by structural integration and breath work to see how these practices can improve our quality and love for life.

Zero Forms,

The base and foundation that we can build from. Articulating our joints, improving how well they collaborate, how well they communicate, and how open they are. Squeezing, pumping and waving throughout our structure to build interconnectedness between, upper body and lower body, joints, ligaments and tendons, shifting our weight more efficiently and questioning our structure to find what our zero is on any given day. Observing all of these feelings within ourselves with no perspective of right or wrong. A meeting with ourselves, improving and observing our relationship with stillness and slowing down.

Practice Ball,

To see how well we can adapt and relate in chaos. Working with people to build connection, improve communication, and be led into the unknown with trust. We rarely do things we don’t enjoy, or things we aren’t good at, we become habitual. How can we move away from this? Working with partners that take us into situations we cannot take ourselves, learning about ourselves in new ways, creating unknown connections where the impossible becomes possible. to be calm within the chaos and maintain quality of thinking and movement when under stress. How valuable this skill is in all aspects of life.

Coordinations,

To see how well we coordinate ourselves in space. Improving the connection from our upper body to our lower body so that this is no longer disconnected. How well do all of our joints communicate, orchestrate and absorb force to move with more ease through life. How well do we stack our weight, shift our weight and create/absorb force. Observing how we learn through being exposed to complex patterns, to struggle and find a way within ourselves and with others to solve these problems. Coordinating.

Fascial Manoeuvres,

To release parts of the body where we maybe stuck or restricted. Opening these areas with guided techniques from Structural Integration and then seeing how that instantly transfers over to how we walk through a space and in our movement situations. A dance between practices that align seamlessly to deepen how much we get out of what we do in our lives with less effort accompanied with a sense of freedom.

Breath,

To calm or awaken the nervous system. Becoming more equipped with our own tool kit to have confidence that we can handle all obstacles that come our way in life. Allowing the breath to bring trust into our own bodies, knowing ourselves and seeing how that ripples into our daily lives.
