Movement In Vivo with Priscilla Auchincloss, Ph.D. Authorized Teacher of Continuum Movement
Wednesdays, 9:30-11:30 am
The body is the path.
This class is an exploration into the life of the body, developing attention, breath, sound, and
micromovement as tools of inquiry and processes of nourishment. As the intelligence of the body awakens, it reveals its
capacity to reshape patterns of thought, feeling, and action, and to
open channels of subtle perceiving and deep resourcing. The work goes
where it is needed, towards a state of health, resilience, and
body-mind congruence. Newcomers, please contact Priscilla for an individual
session prior to joining this class.
$17 for single
class, $75 for 5 classes, $130 for 10 classes(good for 6 months). Pay securely online,
or bring payment to first class. For further information, contact Priscilla at priscilla@physikosmovement.comor (585) 721-4220.
Fluid
strength begins with the fluid body. This series introduces the
concepts and elements of Continuum Movement -- breath, sounding,
attention, micromovement, wave motion, and layering. Then, by changing
the body's orientation to gravity, we explore the challenges and
movement orchestrations that arise. The addition of weights is another
variation that each person may experiment with. The idea is to feel the
pleasure of our strength
and to learn how to stay fluid, be safe, and increase our
adaptability in the process.
$17 for single
class, $75 for 5 classes.
Also offered on occasional Saturdays, 3 hours: 9-12noon or 1-4 pm. $25.
Priscilla, on the chair
Priscilla Auchinclossholds a doctorate in physics. She worked in academia for 20
years before diving full-time into teaching, researching and writing about movement.The seeds of this transition were
planted long before, however, and were nurtured in the experience of Continuum
Movement with Deborah Raoult
and Emilie Conrad, and in the One River Practice Group, which formed in
2002.Other strong influences
include Augusto Boal (Theatre of the Oppressed), Olivia Corson (Body Tales),
and Susan Harper (Continuum Montage). Priscilla is the owner and director of Physikos Movement. She lives in Rochester with her two children and her dog, Mousse.
