Dancing in the sea with marine beings - dolphins, manta rays, whales, sea lions - is what takes us beyond my dreams, because reality seems much more magical than fantasy.
The quality and presence that the Ocean Dance gives, makes the fish and mammals accept you as a brother, and they approach to play.

We highly recommend to not planning anything else in the days of the intensive. You can only attend it fully, no parts can be missed. Meditation and good sleep are a part of experience in the days before and during the intensive.
All exercises will be adapted to group conditions, individual requests, and skill levels, but essential swimming skills are required. Itโ€™s enough to have a desire to learn how to enjoy simple things, and an interest in the body and improvisation.
The team will do the rest.

Ocean Dance is a dance in the multidimensional space of water, at a depth of ๐ŸŽ-๐Ÿ๐Ÿ– ๐ฆ๐ž๐ญ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ. Thatโ€™s how it looks from the outside. From the inside it is the ๐ž๐ฆ๐›๐จ๐๐ข๐ฆ๐ž๐ง๐ญ of childhood dream - to fly.
In learning this unique form of dance, we learn such vital skills as bodily awareness at rest and in motion, work with stress response, physical principles of ergonomic movement in water, interaction in contact with another person and the foundations of natural movement.
The experience of ๐›๐ž๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ฐ๐ž๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ helps to experience the freedom of movement that some of us don't have on land. That makes this dance available, suitable and helpful for people of diverse age and range of abilities.
The Ocean Dance intensive sessions on land and in the water create an immersive experience where you will:
โ€ข explore the profound connection with your breath and learn equalization, mastering the art of being in harmony underwater.
โ€ข awaken sensations and deepen your understanding of your ๐›๐จ๐๐ฒ'๐ฌ ๐ข๐ง๐ง๐ž๐ซ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐œ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ
โ€ข learn the language of ๐ง๐จ๐ง๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐›๐š๐ฅ ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ž๐ซ๐š๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง and practice deep listening
โ€ข discover your ๐š๐›๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐ญ๐จ ๐›๐ž ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐š๐ฒ๐Ÿ๐ฎ๐ฅ and express yourself fluidly and freely
โ€ข go through the experience of being with other while being ๐Ÿ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ž๐ง๐ญ in your body, which creates totality of aliveness, and contact on a very deep level
Sometimes people come to the intensive with a ๐Ÿ๐ž๐š๐ซ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฐ๐š๐ญ๐ž๐ซ. And usually after the first day of classes this fear goes away, or becomes insignificant.

APPLYING THE OCEAN DANCE METHOD TO PSYCHOLOGICAL WORK
โ€ข
text from Sasha Bezrodnova:
As a psychologist, it gives me great pleasure to work with people who are ready to move from a place of fear and anxiety to a place of inner calm, connection with the environment and deep dance with Nature.
The contact with the water itself does this healing work, returning us to a state, close to the intrauterine.
By learning to manage our breathing, we improve our ability to manage our emotional state and stress level. We develop the awareness that allows us to notice when panic is rising and to come out of it.
The idea of stopping breathing for many people is related to the fear of dying. Coming out of this fear and changing it by curiosity to the physical sensations that are appearing, opens many new doors in our consciousness.
Sometimes people think it will take years to let go of their water-related fears, or learn to manage their panic reactions. With the Ocean Dance method, big changes are possible within a week of practice.
๐ง๐จ๐ญ๐ž
Any conscious movement, especially in water, can evoke strong emotional states.
All your states and questions are valid and will be given attention and space; however, this is not a therapeutic group, and we ask you to be mindful of yourself and adapt the exercises to suit you.
You may discover some interesting topics to work in your personal growth, some of them you may cover during the intensive, some will take you more time.
Our team has professional therapists with whom you can work during or after the intensive.

โ€ข deep and detailed connection to your body that brings you to a greater freedom of movement.
โ€ข you will move efficiently and effortlessly in water, avoiding unnecessary tensions and sharp movements.
โ€ข becoming friends with water and gaining ease when holding your breath, enjoying to go deeper underwater.
โ€ข becoming peaceful, restful, playful and joyful when interacting with others in water and on a land.
โ€ข letting your body become a piece of art, using the aesthetics of non-doing and relaxation, clear directions and conscious movement.
โ€ข feeling and expressing your feelings through touch and movement.
