Longing
Waves
DESCRIPTION
Saudade is the recollection of feelings, experiences, places, or events that once brought excitement, pleasure, well-being, which now triggers the senses and makes one live again. It can be described as an emptiness, like someone (e.g., one's children, parents, sibling, grandparents, friends, pets) or something (e.g., places, things one used to do in childhood, or other activities performed in the past) that should be there in a particular moment is missing, and the individual feels this absence. It brings sad and happy feelings altogether, sadness for missing and happiness for having experienced the feeling.
This workshops is a 6 hour embodied exploration into the unique longings that call each of us forth to live the fullest expressions of ourselves. Using the map of the 5Rhythms, we will dance, write, and draw to give expression and clarity to what we long for and how we can make ourselves available to the expression of our longings.
NOTES
This workshop is open to beginners as well as experienced dancers, some previous experience of 5Rhythms is useful but not required. There will be a short break in the middle for a brief snack, please eat a good meal at least 2 hours before session begins.
