RELATIONAL RESILIENCE: Movement and Communication with Sandra Reeve
(Part of the Move into Life workshop cycle)
Life is relationship - every moment is a co-creation. If that is true, then we are never wholly responsible and we are never uninvolved. As we begin to understand how deeply interconnected we all are, and how fragile the idea of an individual really is, one crucial question is: "How can I follow my line?"

SEASCAPES AND TIME: Environmental Movement with Sandra Reeve
(Part of the Move into Life workshop cycle)
Moving beneath the cliffs of Stonebarrow, this environmental movement workshop introduces the skills of being/becoming viscerally aware of your own movements as part of the natural movements around you. Your body-in-movement is one part of the choreography of movements surrounding you – the rhythm of the sea, the gusts of wind, the trickle of shingle, the impression in the sand, the flight of a bird, the fleeting gesture of a companion.
