More about the Explore 30 immersion workshop
How will the course information be presented?
The main intention of the Explore 30 format is to be able to take in small, bite-size, digestible pieces of recorded information related to somatic movement over the course of 30 days. Slowing down, and having time for your own direct explorations, 10 minutes a day, is key. You’ll receive daily emails with pertinent information: links to short audio or video recordings, articles, YouTube videos, photographs, etc. It is suggested you take in the new information at your leisure, and then practice for 10 minutes later when you have time.
Recordings will be available for you to download throughout the month of March and for one week after the conclusion of the course. You will need to download and create your own Explore 30 library on your personal device, if you wish to keep the material for further use.
Are there opportunities for Questions and Answers? Live classes?
Please allow your 10 minute exploration time to be your greatest resource. Connecting to our own body’s intelligence, timing and guidance is so important. With gentle curiosity we explore “as participants in a primordial legacy that is continued in the very substance of our “bodies,” urged by currents of a process that is unfettered, alive and never-ending.” - Emilie Conrad, Life on Land
Please send an email with your question(s) directly to me, and I’ll do my best to answer promptly. We’ll schedule a weekly live 30-minute Zoom Q & A to meet by video to go over questions. Send your questions ahead of time if you’re unable to attend live. The Q&A session will be recorded and available for later viewing. Proposed Q&A time: Thursdays, 12 noon - 12:30 PM Eastern US/Canada time.
Can we “dive” or do our explorations together in real time?
Yes! While we’re all committed to exploring on our own throughout the month and creating a potent field together, it is also supportive to be able to meet one another and be in inquiry together. We’ll schedule a weekly live 30-minute Zoom class to meet and explore for 15-20 minutes. Proposed Class time is Thursdays, 9:00 pm - 9:30 pm Eastern US/Canada, OR Thursdays, 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm Eastern US/Canada. (TBD, when we know everyone’s time zones.)
I’m new to Continuum Movement? What will I learn about it?
Over the course of 30 days I’ll be sharing elements that are key to any somatic movement practice. I will also familiarize students with the terms used in Continuum Movement as they relate to doing a “sequence” or a “dive”. While 10 minutes, your daily commitment, is a short amount of time, enough information will be shared in March so that students can take what they’ve learned and create a longer sequence to explore and layer when they’re interested and have time.
For those new to Continuum or just wanting more experience, we can talk at the end of March about meeting live on Zoom and doing a longer dive together in April (cameras and mics on, unrecorded).
