I am absolutely delighted to take up the exciting opportunities given with this three month residency at the Warburton Arts Centre. While my pictures and text on the walls tells the broader story of my body of work, I can use the large and lovely gallery space to run all sorts of events and workshops. Including the following:

In this ten week workshop series, we will access creativity, pleasure, reverence and joy through body practices that open our receptivity and increase sensory capacity.  We will explore a wide range of practices including movement, partner work, voice, flow writing and meditation.

The soma is the body as experienced from within, and somatic practices help us attune internally.  A flow state comes when we are completely absorbed, energised and focused. Bringing these together enhances our capacity to appreciate and enjoy the complex and beautiful aliveness of our bodies.

Flow State Somatics is the name I am giving to this particular body of somatic work. Informed by my 30+ years of practice exploring the intersections between the following modalities: yoga, chi gung, body mind centring, Zen meditation, contact improvisation dance, ancestral movement, Dadirri (deep listening), Focusing and somatics, plus neuroscientific research. This work seeks to cultivate states of profound peace, delicious presence, deep listening, and connection with creativity as a force of nature.
