Join us for a journey through inner and outer landscapes  where imagination meets embodiment, and movement becomes expression.

Tuning - Togetherness - Touch​

Somatic Dialogue is a gentle practice of body and mind in movement. It uses a soft and mindful approach to the body and enables the mind to accompany the body in a loving way. Through guided dance improvisation and hands-on techniques, the participants can enter into an intimate dialogue with themselves and with the world surrounding them.

It opens a space in us, where we can enter into a deep listening, discover our inner universe, and get closer to our physical, emotional, sensual and poetic selves.

​

Workshop of Somatic Dialogue​

A day inviting you to multiple shades and tones of touch.​

Togetherness and touch are one of the most complex and rich areas of work in Somatic Dialogue. In this workshop we will experience how bodies can tune to themselves, to each other and to the music. We will then explore the different shades of touch, from the non-physical to the physical, through well guided improvisation tasks, and active listening. This will then move us to a full experience of togetherness.

​

The aim is to taste the qualities of togetherness, with the movement, with oneself, with the music and with the other in a safe and well defined environment.

 

I invite you to tune into your realm of sensations, I will be there with you and guide you step by step in this labyrinth of what we feel when we touch and are touched. ​

The 1-day workshop will consist of 5 hours of work with an additional hour of lunch break where participants will taste and enjoy an open buffet together.

Date: 7.6.2025

Venue: Limpid Works, Prague

Price: 2.500 Kč. (1-day workshop)

21 June: Lightness in Belly Dance

Step into the element of air and awaken the ethereal pathways of your dance. In this workshop, we will explore the graceful language of the chest, arms, and hands through belly dancing and embody the delicate messengers of emotion and expression.

Through spirals, circles, and soft extensions, we will attune our bodies to the lightness of movement, discovering how effortless flows not from the pelvis, but from releasing the upper body.. Each gesture becomes a breeze, each motion a story, as we unfold the wings hidden beneath our skin.

In belly dance, arms are the complementary elements of body waves, even though it looks easy and simple; the world of the upper body needs care with specific attention and biomechanic understanding. Get ready to take off and feel as if you are flying into space during belly dancing.

22 June: Inner Sparks in Belly Dance

Awaken the fire within and move with its rhythm.
In this workshop, we’ll explore the power of vibration through shimmies, shakes, and inner trembles that bring the body alive.

Fire lives hiddenly inside of our center and solar pleksus.
It burns in the hips, pulses through the legs, and glows behind the eyes.
With each movement, we’ll connect to the energy that warms, wakes, and opens us from the inside out.

This is not about control, but about letting go.
Letting the fire move you to release tension, express emotion, and feel more alive in your body.

We will let the rhythm rise, take us over, and feel its spark in every cell.

And then, joy begins to reveal itself naturally in every moment and you'll be surprised by the power within you.

The dancing happens by the way…

Somatic Dialogue is a gentle practice of body and mind in movement. It uses a soft and mindful approach to the body and enables the mind to accompany the body in a loving way. Through the facilitator’s guided dance improvisation exercises,  hands-on techniques and music, the participants can enter into an intimate dialogue with themselves and with the world surrounding them.

 

This method opens a space in us, where we can enter into a deep listening, discover our inner universe, and get closer to our physical, emotional, sensual and poetic selves.

 

A weekend of advanced movement practices based on Somatic Dialogue Principles

 

This weekend we will mainly focus on dance improvisation with the help of well defined guidelines, that enable us to find liberties and widen our range of movement and also experience how the expression is being born during the movement. We will feel the power of expression without “wanting” to express something in particular. 

Once we have experienced the birth of expressions we will then on the second day experience the dialogue of our expressions through partner work. Here the intimate exchange beyond words will stay only between ourselves and our partners. Poetry of movement that emerges in the in-between space of two persons who are willing to witness each other in movement.

 

Day 1:

11:00-13:00: Dance improvisation session, mainly focusing on floor work

13:00-14:00: Lunch break (open and common buffet in the studio)

14:00-17:00: Giving space to arms and legs, the dialogue of periphery and centres, and the expression travelling through the body

 

Day 2:

11:00-13:00: Feeling my expression, witnessing and being witnessed

13:00-14:00: Lunch break (open and common buffet in the studio)

14:00-17:00: Couple work exercises in which we will explore through the listening touch, how expression beyond words can touch us and lead us to an intimate ephemeral relationship between two, accompanied by music. 

​

All workshops are for participants who have intermediate experience in dance/movement/improvisation, or who have followed 2 or more workshops of Somatic Dialogue. Intermediate participants are advised to join both days, while advanced participants may choose to attend either one or both days.

Are you in need of a sustainable practice that support your body-mind  connection?

Moving our body and silencing our mind in our busy lives is not always easy. Making room for the ups and downs of our lives and mindfully expanding our inner space to contain all the dynamics with compassion and acceptance is a skill we can learn to lead a more harmonious life that our human soul desire. 

Somatic dialogue is a body practice that allows us to gently explore and transform the way we relate to our body. It encourages us to explore possibilities of getting in contact with ourselves, connecting to our body wisdom and adopting an embodied approach to life where we can face the changes from a more earthy, joyful and playful place.

It helps us with the topics like: embodying the "letting go”, stress relief, self regulation and balancing our “doing/being” energies. 

During the sessions you are guided through simple movement improvisations accompanied with beautiful music to connect to your inner resources in your own pace and mindfully expand the perception of your body in physical, mental, emotional and sensational levels. 

Come to give yourself a moment to meet yourself again, regardless of the circumstances! It will not only move your body, but your heart…
