I practiced aikido for 25 years\, a pacifist martial art without competition. Through the practice of this art\, I have evolved my relationship with others through the body. \nI discovered dance as a meditation exercise in 2005 and then began practicing Biodanza in 2006. A year later\, Biodanza became essential in my life\, illuminating my relationships\, especially with my two children. \nI have given classes for adults\, children\, asylum seekers\, and people living with disabilities. In 2019\, I trained to become a didactician\, committing myself further in the process of transformation of our societies. Since then\, I have led regular training modules in France and abroad\, while continuing to offer weekly classes. \nI love to add my drop of water into the harmonious ocean of this world. To love living\, more and more\, and to share it; this is my project. Looking forward to meeting you… \nZoe – I’m Zoë\, Biodanza System RT (Rolando Toro) facilitator since 2015. I’m a mother and an architect\, negotiating the ups and downs of life like everyone else. Biodanza is fundamental for me to create a life aligned with my passions and needs\, and to discover and maximise my potential\, despite a burnout 30 years ago when I could hardly walk. The miraculous power of Biodanza never ceases to amaze me\, and would be an honour to dance in Australia\, the country where my brother and family have built their lives. \nDETAILS\nVenue: Balanced Yoga\, Kingston \nTickets (incl. Biodanza\, afternoon tea and sound healing) \nSuper EarlyBird  – $140 (til 6 July) \nEarlyBird  – $170 (til 19 July) \nFull price – $190 (from 20 July) \nDiscounts\nWe are a micro business operating with narrow margins\, and we also know how much Biodanza can make a difference and want to make this as available as we can.

SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:Chrysalis awakening and archetypes of transformation\nBiodanza Workshop 31 August\nat Balanced Yoga – Canberra\nWhen the moment arrives to welcome a new stage an extraordinary stirring of vital energy takes place.  The impulse that the caterpillar feels to move out of its formlessness and into a shape to fly can also be awoken within us. It is an archetypal movement – found in nature and in all of us. In this Biodanza afternoon workshop\, we will welcome this archetype\, its stage and movements in dances. \nDancing the arising\, the phoenix\, the eternal return that happens every day when the sun rises and that lives within us all as a potential for when the conditions are ripe. Tapping into this rhythm of seasons and cycles. Welcoming the rhythms that regulate our energy\, vitality and way through the world. \nOur ancestors danced their dances across the world inspired by the organic movements of life. Today in Biodanza we continue the dances of humans across the earth to access the living knowledge inside our cells. Life is not in libraries\, it is in us and dancing is a way to bring it out. We did not dance alone in the past and it’s good to be able to dance together now in this modern world so concerned with the individual. Together we can support each other through the cycles of the years and our lives and celebrate emergence and the eternal return of life in each other. \nWe invite you to a journey of discovery in 2 session of Biodanza. A journey to open what is ready to emerge for you in your life. \nDetails:\n\nTime: 2-6pm\nVenue: Balanced Yoga in Kingston – 39 Jardine St\, Kingston ACT 2604\, Australia View on Maps\n\nBalanced yoga is a comfortable space for Biodanza with lovely natural light in a quiet area. It has blankets and bolsters for use during restful floor exercises. There is street parking or at Supabarn across the road \n\nProgram\n\nWe will follow an organic flow through the afternoon with time for dancing\, reflection and rest. Here are the key elements of the program. Everything is an invitation and you are always welcome to adjust to your requirements at the time. \nCheck-in and presentation \nSession 1 of Biodanza \nTea and rest break \nSession 2 of Biodanza \n\n\n\nFull Price  $75\nDiscount price if you are currently enrolled in 10-week term  – $55 (Promo Code K6M98Z8V)\n\nBook your Ticket Here\n2024 dates for Saturday workshops \n\n\n5 Oct \n\n\n2 Nov \n\n\n\n\n  \nBook your Ticket Here\nSome testimonials\n“Have you ever danced until you flew? Danced so hard\, so fast\, so freely that you reach a level of overwhelming\, ecstatic joy? If you haven’t you should – it can change your life.”  Mike Aldridge on Biodanza\, Namaste magazine \n“Can two and a half hours really make a difference to how you feel about your body? My experience is it can. … I sashayed over to my car\, a big grin inside and out\, feeling as if I had shifted and shaken loose something critical and controlling within. I realised how seldom I listen to my body’s wisdom and how often I override its needs and pleasures. If I am to learn to truly love myself\, what better place to start than with my body?”    Rosemary Miller\, Movement into life\, Odyssey \n“I’m feeling wonderfully relaxed and uplifted… I feel good and strangely optimistic about everything”    Geoff Dalglish\, Grab a Partner\, Mens Health \nRead more about how people experience Biodanza at the Biocentrica website \nAbout Biodanza\nBiodanza is a transformational dance practice. First developed in South America it is now loved around the world. In Biodanza dance is not about learning steps – it’s about moving experiences with uplifting music that awaken your potentials for health and wellbeing. Biodanza is a system of human development through dance\, music and social connection based on life\, the arts and the human sciences of psychology\, philosophy\, physiology and biology. \nAbout Biodanza workshops\nDoing more than one session of Biodanza in a progression allows for an amplification of the effect of the dances. Taking time out from your regular daily life creates space for you to immerse deeply into the proposals and explore more dimensions through the process. Most of the process of Biodanza happens in a regular\, weekly group. If you can’t make a weekly class\, a workshop like this can be an alternative to keep exploring through Biodanza. It is also a way to develop your experience if you are interested in doing weekends of Biodanza or facilitator training. \nAbout your facilitator\nKate has worked as a dance and human movement facilitator for more than 20 years and as a trainer of Biodanza facilitators for 12 years. She has facilitated Biodanza with groups from executive teams in boardrooms in the Philippines to teenagers in social projects in South Africa.  Today Kate runs Biodanza groups in Canberra and trains and supervises Biodanza facilitators around Australia in the 3-year training program. She believes in the power of Biodanza to open our hearts and bring out innate human potentials for caring and generating positive possibilities together. \nBook your Ticket Here

SUMMARY:CBR - Saturday Biodanza Workshop 3 Aug- Existential Creativity
DESCRIPTION:Existential Creativity\nBiodanza Workshop 3 Aug at Balanced Yoga\n\nOur life force is naturally creative\, not just in producing things but in being a part of the creative cycle of existence. When this is flowing\, when there is connection\, a sense of relatedness\, it is natural for joy to arise. It is easier to flow with the way life is moving and to dance with change. \nAs we grow and are taught how to speak and read and write and think\, often we forget the joy of knowing and creating through movement and all of our senses. We lose contact with our bodies and our authentic expression. Life can seem to be all about what we think\, rather than what we feel on deeper levels. \nIn this afternoon workshop\, we invite you to dance and share experiences that open up some of the doors to your authentic expression again. Enlivening your creative potential while also giving space for parts of yourself that need presence and rest to renew. \n\nIn a journey of two sessions of Biodanza\, we invite you to a space of acceptance and possibility where you can: \n\n\nreawaken your senses through movement \n\n\nenliven your life force in an organic way for meaningful action \n\n\nhave space to invite a gentle dissolving of inner blocks to your creative life expressions \n\n\npractice trusting in your steps and capacity to embrace change as you move through life \n\n\nThis afternoon Biodanza workshop will explore existential creativity\, the creation of our lives. It includes introductory material\, 2 sessions of Biodanza and a tea and rest break. \n\nDetails:\n\nTime: 2-6pm\nVenue: Balanced Yoga in Kingston – 39 Jardine St\, Kingston ACT 2604\, Australia View on Maps\n\nBalanced yoga is a comfortable space for Biodanza with lovely natural light in a quiet area.

Danced so hard\, so fast\, so freely that you reach a level of overwhelming\, ecstatic joy? If you haven’t you should – it can change your life.”  Mike Aldridge on Biodanza\, Namaste magazine \n“Can two and a half hours really make a difference to how you feel about your body? My experience is it can. … I sashayed over to my car\, a big grin inside and out\, feeling as if I had shifted and shaken loose something critical and controlling within. I realised how seldom I listen to my body’s wisdom and how often I override its needs and pleasures. If I am to learn to truly love myself\, what better place to start than with my body?”    Rosemary Miller\, Movement into life\, Odyssey \n“I’m feeling wonderfully relaxed and uplifted… I feel good and strangely optimistic about everything”    Geoff Dalglish\, Grab a Partner\, Mens Health \nRead more about how people experience Biodanza at the Biocentrica website \n\nAbout Biodanza\nBiodanza is a transformational dance practice. First developed in South America it is now loved around the world. In Biodanza dance is not about learning steps – it’s about moving experiences with uplifting music that awaken your potentials for health and wellbeing. Biodanza is a system of human development through dance\, music and social connection based on life\, the arts and the human sciences of psychology\, philosophy\, physiology and biology. \n\nAbout Biodanza workshops\nDoing more than one session of Biodanza in a progression allows for an amplification of the effect of the dances. Taking time out from your regular daily life creates space for you to immerse deeply into the proposals and explore more dimensions through the process. Most of the process of Biodanza happens in a regular\, weekly group. If you can’t make a weekly class\, a workshop like this can be an alternative to keep exploring through Biodanza. It is also a way to develop your experience if you are interested in doing weekends of Biodanza or facilitator training. \nAbout your facilitator\nKate has worked as a dance and human movement facilitator for more than 20 years and as a trainer of Biodanza facilitators for 12 years. She has facilitated Biodanza with groups from executive teams in boardrooms in the Philippines to teenagers in social projects in South Africa.  Today Kate runs Biodanza groups in Canberra and trains and supervises Biodanza facilitators around Australia in the 3-year training program. She believes in the power of Biodanza to open our hearts and bring out innate human potentials for caring and generating positive possibilities together. \nBook your Ticket Here

DESCRIPTION:Moving into the space of Selfcare\nBiodanza & Yoga\nCanberra Saturday 11 May\nKendra and Kate are delighted to invite you to a special opportunity to unwind and drop into openness\, possibility\, flow and rest.\n\nWe believe that nourishing the roots of your self-care is not a luxury but a necessity for a vital and healthy life.\n\nWith Biodanza and yoga\, we are offering a space for dance\, movement\, inner connection and also restorative\, perhaps even remarkable rest and coming inwards.\nThis is a space to fill your cup\, take care of yourself and be replenished.\n\nWe begin with a brief introduction to support our understanding of the 3 rhythms of our nervous system. We then invite you to move into a session of Biodanza followed by a nourishing afternoon chai.\n\nAfter tea\, we invite you into breath-centered movement and yoga with Kendra which concludes with the possibility of remarkable rest in a guided experience of iRest yoga nidra.\n\nWe look forward to co-creating precious time and space for you to experience deep self-care.\nSpaces will be limited to 16 people.\n\nWorkshop details\nDate: Saturday 11 MayTime: 1pm – 5.30pmVenue: Balanced Yoga in KingstonPrices – include workshop and nourishing afternoon tea$160 – early bird special until Friday 26 April$180 – full price \n  \nAbout your facilitators\n\nKate\nKate facilitates Biodanza\, the dance of life and gratefully lives and dances on Ngunnawal country. She trained in South Africa and Brazil and today trains and supervises Biodanza facilitators and facilitates groups and retreats.\nWorking with diverse teams from executives in boardrooms to teenagers in social projects Kate has seen how Biodanza brings enlivens people and connections. She believes it can contribute to improving mental health and overcoming loneliness and isolation in our communities.\nFor Kate Biodanza invites an ongoing unfolding into deeper connections within\, with others and life. She believes these connections are essential if we are to care for ourselves\, each other and life on this planet together.\n\nKendra\nKendra supports the awakening process that is ongoing and deeply nourishing for every human being. As a trauma-sensitive embodiment facilitator and professional Yoga Therapist\, Kendra draws on a vast pool of yogic wisdom and recognizes that our own individual body holds the wisdom and the journey towards its essential nature.\nShe understands how important embodiment is as an adjunct offering to talk therapy in the treatment of trauma and recognizes it is often the missing link in conventional healing.\nMany clients have been referred from mental health organizations\, at a time when their care plan required a more biopsychospiritual approach to their wellbeing and healing journey.\n\n\nAbout Biodanza\n\nBiodanza is an integrative system of human development through dance\, music and social interaction. Biodanza is based on studies in anthropology\, psychology and biology. In Biodanza music\, movement and supportive connections offer us a path to connect with health. It supports us to dance with life as it unfolds.\nA series of dances invite you to ‘shake out some stress‘\, play and explore different movement possibilities then to slow down to become more present and steady. The flow of the dances brings you home to yourself and invites a sense of inner joy.\nYou don’t need to be a dancer\, this is something everyone can do. We move in bare feet if that is possible for you. You are invited to wear clothes comfortable for movement. Everything in the session is an invitation\, you are welcome to opt out of any activities or adapt them for your comfort and possibilities.\n\nRead more about Biodanza and scientific studies into the effects of Biodanza.\nLink to Biodanza science – https://biocentrica.com.au/research-and-media/\n\nAbout iRest Yoga Nidra\n\niRest is a simple and accessible\, trauma-aware form of meditation designed for modern-day living. It is a form of yoga therapy that cultivates great results through short regular practices. It is offered in all of Kendra’s classes but is particularly effective as a private Dyad practice.​You may have already practiced Yoga Nidra in regular Yoga classes by lying on your back and being guided through body sensations. iRest is a Yoga Nidra practice developed by Dr. Richard Miller that combines traditional yogic practices with Western psychology and neuroscience. It is practiced and taught by thousands of people worldwide in a wide range of settings\, including health centers\, schools\, community centres\, yoga studios\, correctional facilities\, and military hospitals.​It can help you navigate life’s challenges and enhance a feeling of well-being.\niRest has been shown to be effective in scientific trials for conditions including; chronic pain\, sleep problems\, depression and anxiety\, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)​.\nLink to irest science – https://www.irest.org/node/2920\n\nPLEASE READ MORE AND BOOK YOUR TICKET HERE
