Move and Move
With Raimon Àvila
One way to advance in self-knowledge and personal growth is to unlock the body. Tensions and bodily blockages keep us prisoners of certain mental patterns. And bodily awareness, the knowledge of these rigidities, can free us to the point where we can connect with our emotions in a more honest way. Only then can we be ourselves. Only then can we fulfill ourselves. Only then can we grow.
The problem is that in commercial discourse, the body is a formal body, not an experienced and lived body. We are not accustomed to inhabiting our bodies. That’s why Mover y Conmover was born. A course that will lead you to an optimal state of relaxation through body awareness exercises from a variety of disciplines. The set of exercises designed by Raimón Àvila, the course instructor, navigates through the seas of both Eastern and Western body practices. A unique journey.
And it’s an experiential journey. Because Mover y Conmover is focused on the most intense experience, on bodily sensation, not on rational thought. Both those who want to prepare for the theatrical arts and those who simply want to learn how to ground themselves in their own bodies to address emotional problems from a more conscious dimension will find everything they need in this course. Body awareness and relaxation can change everything. They can change a life.
What unconscious image do you have of your body? Where is its center located? What grounding does it have? Where do you place your awareness in relation to its vertical axis? Body awareness involves answering these fundamental questions. Because emotions are states of the body. They manifest themselves through changes in the body itself. Its center. Its grounding. Its breath. Its posture. Mover y Conmover will help you understand your body and influence it. To live your emotions.
