Dolphin Play with Paul

Please join us for an afternoon of connection and fun in warm water...

• WATSU®: floating each other

• Aquatic Taoist Yoga: flowing movement coordinated with breath

• Aquatic Ecstatic Dance: self-expression through movement

• Aquatic Contact Improvisation: interactive exploration of movement

In gorgeous pool overlooking San Francisco Bay in Marin County.

_______________________________________________________

WATSU® is the original nurturing form of aquatic bodywork, involving presence, breath, heart connection, flowing movement, massage, and stillness while being floated in warm water... like returning to the womb... nurtures, relaxes, helps release trauma... brings clarity, joy, and sense of wellbeing.

Taoist Yoga (Qigong) is flowing movement coordinated with the breath, based on Traditional Moving Meditation (Tao Yin) and Inner Alchemy (Neidan)... builds strength, flexibility, balance, grace, and vitality... effortless learning, no experience required.

Ecstatic Dance is spontaneous self-expression through exploration of individual dance... sometimes quiet and meditative, other times athletic and playful... cultivating body awareness and creativity.

Contact Improv is interactive co-creation... sometimes leading, sometimes following... aware of your relationship with others... cultivating trust, sense of belonging, and community.

Celebrating the joy of life, while learning ways to care for ourselves and others...
