EMBODIMENT WORKSHOPS
EMBODIED DREAMING, embodiment workshop – 2-5/3/2023 ELIAS residency
In this workshop we will work on the embodiment of our night dreams and the inner material they bring up. We will open our dreams and inhabit their spaces. We will look at their imagery, embody the emerging images, recognize their specific force, quality and intent, and uncover their affective resonance in our bodies concentrated in sensations. We will intensify and amplify the diverse embodied affective and energetic states that come up to map the topography of your (dream) body. Finally we will explore what is the composite state that comes up and how it ultimately transfiguers and opens us to a new space, a new dimension, a new perspectivel and a new configuration.
This will be slow focused and deep work. An engagement into transformative process, a work on oneself, but done as exploration of movement and presence through the embodied imagery. Suggested prerequisite but not absolutely necessary is that you have done a Dream Opening® course.

THE HIDDEN PATTERNS OF IMAGINATION, dance workshop, ELIAS residency
Imagination has its own vocabulary and grammar. Knowing their rules enables us to apply them in diagnostics and healing. Images are the language of experience and thus also the language of the body. The body is not only a distinct physical form, but also a vast pool of awareness that lies beneath the surface of consciousness. Images are the language of experience and since we are always experiencing, the images are continuously unfolding within us. They are the matrix of our existence.
In this movement-oriented workshop we learn to open to constant receiving of images, track their unfolding but also to read the images, know their necessity and stimulate transformation. We look closely to the laws or principles of movement of the imaginal. These are the possible organic ways of how the imagination moves the body and how the tension can be created to trigger transformational movement within.
Through movement and the embodiment we work with the inner stream of images, their always specific presence, force, quality and intent, recognizing their affective powers and using their transformative potential. We use the principles of movement of the imaginal to generate movement vocabulary and expand its possibilities while sculpting physical actions in time. We also look at how working with laws of movement of the imaginal potentially leads to healing the body through the transformation on the level of the imaginal.

THE POWERS OF DREAMING, dance workshop, ELIAS residency
In this movement-oriented workshop we explore the basics of working with dreaming. Dreaming is a way of a body experiencing and processing the perceived information by constantly generating a flow of images that runs next to our daily focused consciousness. We employ diverse ways of inner gazing to access inner flow of images. We embody and move with the images we receive.
The emerging image always contains specific force, quality and intent. We learn to recognize, embody, move and dialogue with the emerging imagery allowing to be moved and in-formed by their presence and their logic. We learn to recognize their affective powers and use their transformative potential. We use these to generate movement vocabulary and expand its possibilities while sculpting physical actions in time.
We work with the open, porous, flowing and malleable body, shifting between in and out, between the self and the other, embracing multiple points of view. We train the double movement of attention and to be simultaneously attending to here-now and to the realm of dreaming, to playfully create while shifting one’s attention between two worlds that continuously penetrate and inform each other.
