3.  Summer 2012 Subbody Butoh Workshop

Subbody Butoh – Dance of Life

8 weeks workshop with Kats D

Subbody Butoh Method was developed by Rhizome Lee, a Japanese Butoh practitioner. “Subbody” means subconscious body. In the subconscious realm, away from the boundary of ego and daily consciousness, our mind and body melt into oneness and create world that is completely different from daily world. Though various conditioning techniques, a Subbody Butoh practitioner creates movements through exploring the subconscious realm. For more information about Subbody Butoh Method, please go to: www.subbody.net

This workshop will focus on the essential aspects of Subbody Butoh:

  • Quiet down the daily consciousness and listen to the subtle body signals.
  • Go beyond our physical, psychological and social bounds in order to create movements that are novel and unique to the individual body.
  • Develop Subbody movements through opening eight channels (body feeling, movement, visual, audio, emotion, relationship, world-self image and thinking).
  • Explore movements through Hidden Body (Hidden Skin, Hidden Muscle, Hidden Joints, etc)
  • Through the Life Resonance with other Subbodies, become Co-body.

This workshop requires no dance experience.  Anyone who would like to explore his or her hidden creative potentials is welcome!

4.  Now accepting Shiatsu appointments for February

Shiatsu is a healing bodywork originated in Japan.  Shiatsu restores one’s self-healing ability by balancing one’s vital energy (Ki).

Through applying pressure to various parts of the body, the practitioner treats one’s meridian (pathways for Ki). 

Shiatsu is beneficial as a treatment for a chronic illness as well as a preventative or recreational remedy. Shiatsu enhances one’s holistic health.

*Shiatsu is practiced lying on the floor with the clothes on.  Please wear loose comfortable clothes.
