A
event
held at Arnolfini
on Thursday 5th February. The event starts at 16:30.
Join us for a somatic movement workshop inspired by Emma Talbot: Everything is Energy, led by artist and somatic practitioner Jan-Ming Lee.
Through creative, body-based explorations and gentle reflection, you will be guided to listen to your own body as an energising resource - exploring ideas in the exhibition and connecting with ourselves.
Jan-Ming will combine movement, body awareness, written and spoken reflections to help us tune into our sensory experiences, the spaces around us, and the stories and emotions that move through these spaces.
This workshop encourages playfulness and creativity, even within difficult emotions such as grief, loss, and disconnection from our natural world.
Thursday 5 February, 4.30-6.30pm
Please book a place and pay what you can.
Please arrive at Arnolfini's front desk 5 minutes before the session starts.
Open to all. Some exercises may include simple, optional physical contact. All activities can be adapted to be fully non-contact if preferred. If you have any questions, please email [email protected]
