Beginner’s Mind Series @ The Avalon in The Tango Room!!
The Contact Improvisationalist's Mind
with
Todd & Damian!
Todd and Damian return once again to take us deeper into Contact.
Using Contact Improvisation principles and techniques we will explore moving in and out of connection as we dance with others while hearing music. We'll examine how to weave a tapestry of dancing connection within ourselves, our environment and with other dancers.
First, we dance with ourselves. Second, we dance with everything around us. Third, we dance with others.
How can we integrate our entire being-ness into the navigation of those three available points of connection in a way that deeply fulfills us? How can we dance with ourselves and others in our environment and be super connected? What skills help us accomplish movement with others that feels ECSTATIC? (isn't that what we're after?) Come explore!
Beginners Mind is an introductory play-shop series for all of us, regardless of experience or perceived ability. Come practice your fundamentals with experienced, inexperienced, and non-judgmental dance partners. You won’t get it wrong, You are a dancer! It is time to set yourself FREE!
Step over the Threshold
With your Community
Reclaim your Nature
Please plan to arrive at the venue a few minutes early. (And yes, still come if you’re running late:) Doors & Music @ 6:15. Group practice begins promptly at 6:30p.
Emergent play-shops are informed by those who show up. Let’s play together. Your Ecstatic Re-Awakening awaits!
❤️ Donations are absolutely Loved!! ❤️.
Ministry of Movement Culture Codes: Honoring Our Shared Space
At the Ministry of Movement, we are committed to creating a space of deep presence, connection, and reverence for all who gather.
We honor the role that various "medicines" can play in personal and collective journeys, and we invite our community members to engage with them in ways that are intentional, safe, and free of shame—outside of our gatherings.
When it comes to our Wednesday Night Service, we ask that all who attend uphold the integrity of the space by arriving in and maintaining a state that allows for clarity, connection, and attunement.
If you choose to partake in any "medicine" prior to joining us, we ask that you do so with mindfulness—ensuring that it aligns with the guiding principles of being true, kind, and necessary for both yourself and the collective while maintaining states of clarity, connection, and attunement to yourself and the container.
To maintain a container of safety and sacred presence:
We do not permit the consumption or carrying of any "medicines" during the Service or anywhere on the premises, including the patio.
If someone arrives in a state where they are noticeably intoxicated or unable to remain clear, coherent, and communicative, they will be asked to leave.
These requests are in place to support the well-being of our entire community and to uphold the integrity of our gatherings.
We deeply appreciate your respect and understanding as we continue to cultivate a space of safety, reverence, and collective harmony.
With love and gratitude,
The Ministry of Movement
