You want to grow... and you want to help others grow. .. this very special workshop provides new skills, awarenesses and insights.
This is a unique opportunity to study for two days with Julie Peck, a top professional and internationally recognized teacher.
Some highlights:
- Further your understanding of movement and healing.
- Learn an exciting methodology compatible with many helping professions
- Learn a new way of understanding your own self-care
- Learn new techniques to share with your clients
The workshop has two topics, one for each day.
Day One – Sensing Skeletal Support. The one constant in our lives from the moment we are born is gravity. Our skeletons are designed to counteract this force to enable us to move easily in the world. Therefore the way we organize our skeletons within this constant ‘force’ will influence everything we do as we act in and on the world around us.
As you sense the support from your skeleton, you discover how this changes your sense of yourself and your possibilities for moving and acting in the world ......In other words, find your ‘lightness of being’!
Come along and explore ways of ‘finding’ your skeleton, and find the lightness, ease and possibilities that come as a result.
Day Two – Learning to Learn – we are all learning beings throughout our lives, and our ability to understand the HOW of learning can greatly influence our quality of acting and interacting in the world.
- How do we feel satisfied?
- How do we know we have done enough?
- How do we cope with frustration?
- How do we find different possibilities?
- How do we find the JOY of learning.
Come along and find ways to enrich and enhance your life and discover the wonder of becoming a lifelong learner.
This workshop was originally recorded in Calgary, March 14 & 15, 2020, then re-broadcast for participants in Toronto. During the re-broadcast, Julie provided additional live introduction and discussion, which enriched the experience of the participants. Some of that discussion was recorded and is available in this online version.
