Super Health – Super Breath
with Emilie Conrad and Robert Litman
Santa Monica, California
July 22, 23, 24, 25, 2009
Emilie Conrad and Robert Litman are both committed to the wealth that FLUID MOVEMENT brings to every facet of life and every aspect of their teaching reflects that dedication.  Beginning with the liquidity of breath, we enter the swirl of rippling movement. We learn how the support of “ground”, invigorates our tissue as the inspiration of the stars anoints us with its creative glow. As we SLOW DOWN we become more receptive to our inherent wisdom that communicates to us through undulating spirals of sensation and movement that invigorates and nourishes every cell. Becoming more receptive to ourselves increases our receptivity to others and so the world becomes richer as each one of us enters the thriving of life.

Advanced Wellsprings Practitioners Program
With Emilie Conrad and Robert Litman
Santa Monica, California
November 29 – December 5, 2009
 As health care becomes ever more complex the role of the practitioner becomes crucial in meeting a wider range of problems with a broad palette of options. In this program we are taking our Wellsprings practitioners into the deeper regions of cellular life by penetrating even further into the accessing of our restorative capabilities. The cell presents us with a brilliant bio-cosmic motif as we engage in its “respiration” and tensegrity movements as models of the power of communities.

Our purpose is to continue to develop the role of practitioner into that of “context creator” who through their own expanded experience arrives at new horizons for health.
Prerequisite: Completion of the Wellsprings Practitioners program
Location: Continuum Movement Studio
1629 18th Street, Santa Monica, CA

Fluid Anatomy – Fluid Breath
New York City

From distant spiraling galaxies, through our multi-layered organism to our cellular DNA, our breath carries messages to and from the universe. With eachinhale, we are first receiver, then messenger as the exhale transmits the tone of our internal landscape.In a society fraught with tension and anxiety, our most useful contribution may be a breath sending signals into the world that peace and possibility still exist. Learning to transform and recycle negative patterns, we enhance the message of greater good. Movement, whether of breath or tissue, takes us to the fulcrum of our existence, restoring health and energy as part of our daily cycle of living.
