About The Event
This 4-day course for singles or couples will allow you to rediscover bliss and vibrancy in body, mind and spirit. Recent research shows that MOVEMENT can prevent some diseases, ease the symptoms of others, and even reverse some chronic conditions. Using both ancient and modern techniques will enable you to release blocks that prevent you from living in your bliss body. The Moving in Bliss course will:
Allow more freedom and ease in your body
Release patterns you have developed to protect from pain and trauma
Strengthen your connection to self, others and the divine
Create comfort in your own skin
Broaden your concept of movement
Increase awareness of subtle movement and how it affects your being
Improve balance in your physical body
Unlock your energetic anatomy
Establish a doable daily practice
We will have fun experimenting with techniques such as breathwork, mudras, meditation, mantra, yoga postures, moving meditations, appropriate touch, emotional release, dance and more. The unique Ipsalu Formula creates space for a deeper listening to your body. The Ipsalu Formula has proven to be transformative over decades of experimentation; allowing for the release of limitations that hold you from joy and bliss in authentic movement. Cultivate an awareness in each moment that will expand into freedom on many levels.
This course is welcoming to all genders, all body types and abilities. No previous experience is necessary.
