"The first creative task is to free the body to experience the power of being... Your body is the ground metaphor of your life, the expression of your existence... So the body is where the dancing path to wholeness must begin."
—Gabrielle Roth, Maps to Ecstasy
What is Conscious Movement?
It is a movement practice that allows us to reconnect with the core of our being to experience the present moment where release, healing and deep processing can occur. It is based on the ancient principle of bringing our awareness back to our bodies through dance, thus supporting our path to self-expression and freedom.
THE PRACTICE
Conscious Movement Sessions creates a safe space to express ourselves freely, allowing us to drop deep into our bodies, and connect with our inner wisdom and healing. It combines free movement, improvisation, creative visualization and music to help release stuck energies stored in our physical, mental and emotional bodies. It is practiced to inspiring world music and does not require any previous movement or dance experience.
"I loved participating in the dance session guided by Karina Pais. A very beautiful and free energy. Karina creates a very special atmosphere in which I felt free to express my being with movement. I let the music dance through me taking me to that place of the mind where everything is fine and I feel one with all things. Thank you Karina!"
— Isabel Figueroa, Miami
