Let the soft animal of your body love what it loves, Mary Oliver

Embody the animal of your moving body

Join us to move, play, draw and transform into the animal of your body. Grounded in the ancestral, embryological, and physical attributes of your moving body we will  honour the ways attuning to the animal of our body opens us to new possibilities and pathways.

  • We will liberate our heads, spines and tails.
  • We will grow claws, wings and fins.
  • We will sound, breath and voice our moving articulations
  • We will soften into the animal of our moving bodies.

We will explore this material from an anatomical, and shamanic perspective drawing on learnings from Body Mind Centering approaches to embodied anatomy, the fluid realms of Continuum Movement and the Animistic world view-embedded in all cultures and grown in me through the School of Shamanic Womancraft.

Through movement and dance liberate your animal body, and find new forms of self expression, creativity and freedom.

This is a day to explore the animal of your own body and to connect more deeply with a particular animal ally. There will be time to workshop myriad movement possibilities of multiple animal ancestries and time to deepen your exploration and shapeshift into a particular animal ally in a trance style dance with live and recorded drumming.

Offerings

1:1 Sessions

Are you feeling stuck, or going through a challenging transition or time? Sarah offers 1:1 sessions based on the modality of School of Shamanic Womancraft which recognises that you have the answers within. Using shamanic womancraft processes you can bring awareness to the patterns and story of your rites of passage and your woundings – seeing them as opportunities for growth and initiation.

Ritual & Performance

I works in collaboration with women, and gender diverse people to co-create sacred ceremonies and ritual. My ritual work focuses on creating mytho- poetic and embodied stories of rites of passage and deepening our connection to the earth. I also work with artists and the wider community to create shared rituals and performance in honour of the earth, and to support the restoration of ceremony, art & ritual in our lives.

Storytelling & Writing

I am a storyteller, writer and emerging playwright. I believe that stories can change the world. As the writer Barry Lopez said, "Everything is held together with stories. That is all that is holding us together, stories and compassion."
I run a free Storytelling by the Fire session monthly in Highett. You can read some of my writing here, and sign up to my newsletter for my monthly writing and musings.
