Movement Exploration with Nature and Horses.
We are excited to announce the dates for this year's movement with horses workshops.
Come and join us for a journey through creative expression, authentic dance, nature inspiration, and equine connections.
This is an outdoor movement workshop in which we will learn about responding to nature, the horses, and ourselves, cultivating connection, balance, improvisation and flow.
The day will be led by Facilitator Marie Lou, who is a multidisciplinary artist rooted in dance, movement, creative health and wellbeing, and who has undertaken a transformative journey with horses.
The day will be made up of connection with nature and the horses, alongside exploring movement, our senses, and our body's capabilities. We will involve self awareness practices, such as mindfulness, sensory awareness and breathing techniques. We will also explore how to allow ourselves creative self expression, whether it be through dance, art, movement, writing, song or more.
We will have a maximum of 6 participants, to ensure the group is small and personal. No horse experience needed, adults only workshop. (We will have some summer offerings for children, watch this space!)
Equine Elements will host the day, with the Herd and Alice also facilitating alongside Marie Lou.
Alice may not have much experience with movement as such, (although is fascinated by the science of it!) however she has extensive experience with horsemanship and horse human connection, and movement for the benefit of the horse.
The horses are, of course, incredibly sensitive and body aware. They are the most authentic movers out there!
Our site is Frith Field, and is a nature rich space with an abundance of birds, flowers, herbs, insects and other wildlife.
