Libra – Equilibrium – Balance
Autumn, the time between the out-breath of summer and the in-breath of winter. Some days are filled with a quiet golden light, some days are wet and stormy and announce the darker time of the year – Libra – a time of the in- between; a time to celebrate equilibrium.
With gentle movement elements of the Feldenkrais Method and Eurythmy we explore polarities and enjoy finding balance and equilibrium – our mobile, stable middle.
For Whom: This course is for you if you want to find new balance after surgery, or if you are in rehabilitation after an injury, if you want to improve your balance in general, or if you want to find inner balance in a time of transition.
We learn how to become comfortable in the in-between, and how to integrate opposing elements.
