This one day workshop is an introduction to primal, natural movement and play. A philosophy which I define as PRIMALity.
Movement which is:
Playful, Restorative, Instinctive, Mindful, Adaptive,
Life-giving, Integrative, Tactical and Youthful
The workshop is designed to improve real, practical movement skills that will assist you in performing everyday, recreational and extraordinary physical tasks more efficiently and effectively.
We will discuss:
What is (and isn't) Natural Movement?
