Somatic eYe on the Root

Somatic eYe on the Root

June 1, 7:00-9:00 pm
415 Bellevue Ave @ Grand Ave. Apt 41, Oakland, Ca

At our root is the pelvis - the foundation.
It mediates our relationship with gravity and the ground,
provides a basis for balance and posture,
contains our organs of sexuality and elimination,
and is integrally involved in the mechanics of breathing,

Many postural, lower back, and knee problems can be traced to a held or inefficiently organized pelvic floor. A dynamic, strong, and sensitive pelvic floor is essential for health, vitality, and self-expression. This workshop will provide you with tools to reconnect the easeful strength and dynamic support which are your birthright.

Deepen in awareness of the structure and function of your pelvis through experiential anatomy and biomechanics using experiments, exercises, and visualizations designed to reawaken the body's genius capacity for self-optimization.

Join eYen on an exploration into the beauty and sensations of the root of our Being.
