with Andrew Suseno and Kimberly Tate
Realizing our liberation is impossible without self and relational awareness and the desire to learn.
Parcon Resilience opens up the practice of liberation to incorporate the mind through the body in relation to itself, others and the environment via creative movement and weight sharing. In this workshop movers will develop their tools for self-care, making boundaries, and making requests of themselves and others to center and get what they want. Participants will also develop active listening skills connecting language to movement, touch and the development of structured improvisations to support the deepening or investigation of experience as a collective. These tools are powerful and give us access to working with the conscious and subconscious. Our lens will be anti-racist and anti-oppressive and the themes will be our relationship to power, self, community and the world we live in.
