A dedicated held time for you to grieve and praise, to mourn through movement and creative contemplatives practices.

Whether you are grieving the state of the world, someone dear to your heart, honouring a gate in your life,… there is place for you and your emotions.

We will circle together, honour individual and collective grief, with emphasis on body-wisdom and presence, more than storytelling.

A brave and safe explorative space supported by nature, with lots of space for your own process and rhythm.

Blending contemplative practices, Authentic Movement and Open Floor movement practice, with gentleness, loving kindness and reverence for what is.

“Grief is subversive, undermining the quiet agreement to behave and be in control of our emotions. It is an act of protest that declares our refusal to live numb and small. There is something feral about grief, something essentially outside the ordained and sanctioned behaviors of our culture. Because of that, grief is necessary to the vitality of the soul. Contrary to our fears, grief is suffused with life-force…. It is not a state of deadness or emotional flatness. Grief is alive, wild, untamed and cannot be domesticated.”
– Francis Weller, The Wild Edge of Sorrow

What to expect : movement and dance, with and without music, guided and free, some sounding, some journaling, some humour too.

If you experience financial difficulties, please contact me and feel welcome.

What to bring :

  • Water to drink
  • Your journal if you have one, some paper, a pen, some colours
  • Any comforting object (special blanket, pillow, precious stone to hold in your hand, etc…).

Preparing your dance space :

You will need :

  • A space vast enough to move in the comfort of your home, in nature, or any other undisturbed safe place
  • A computer or your phone. Note that it is better to connect via your computer than your phone to be able to connect to the group easily.
  • A good soundbox, sound-system, or wireless headphones
  • Comfy layers of clothes you enjoy to move in and with.

Looking forward to sharing this space with you.

Next session: 22/02 – 22/03

One-to-One session

Pix: Vic Cooper

“It’s a transformative experience to simply pause instead of immediately fill up the space. By waiting, we begin to connect with fundamental restlessness as well as fundamental spaciousness.”

-Pema Chodron

Feeling the need to dive into a topic you feel tender about or busy with?
Schedule a 1:1 session with me to gently explore what is here through your body.

I will guide you with a tailored blend of somatic work, Authentic Movement and, depending on what emerges, tools drawn from systemic constellation and energy work.

A safe & brave time-space just for you, to be witnessed and held with what is present for you.

Trauma-informed & nervous system friendly.
On-line or in person, inside or in nature.

Equinox : autumn ritual

EQUINOX
Autumn ritual for womb carriers & womyn
held by Anaïs Tamen & Rivi Marcus

Thursday 21.09.23
10am-6pm
Monte Maravilhas (São Martinho das Amoreiras)

*

EQUINOX : a day of passage, a gate to feel the echoes of nature’s changes within us, the inner & outer transitions, the continuous dance of the elements.

The winds are changing, the air is getting heavier with moist. The land is at harvest and our body is moving slower.

An invitation to pause and create space within to welcome this new season.

We invite you to this ritual, in togetherness and connected solitude, to witness each others in our inner movements, through dance, grief work and nature time, honoring what wants to be harvested.

Reservation necessary.
