Personal Care

It is very important when doing this kind of work to make sure that you have adequate support on all levels. This means taking care of your physical body and making sure that there is emotional support available for the times when you may need it. We recommend making sure that you have support structures in your life during intense periods of study as there are inevitably times of turbulence and chaos in the process of awakening.

We have found it essential to take care of our bodies so that they can go on dancing. We have both benefited from cranio-sacral therapy, acupuncture, energy-physio, massage and yoga. If you want to dance long-term, and as you get older, we do recommend making sure that attending to your physical wellbeing is part of your daily life. Of course any methodology, however wonderful, is only as good as its practitioners, however highly qualified. We recommend that you trust your own experience and your own body about what is good for you.

Movement Medicine is not therapy though it is therapeutic. In any spiritual practice, there are times of change and emotional turbulence. Sometimes, the one-to-one support of a therapist or a good friend is vital. We often recommend that students spend some time in therapy with a good therapist in order to provide local ongoing support to integrate the workshop experience.
