At the Gathering you can:
• Connect with well established as well as emerging practitioners in the field.
• Experience a variety of somatic connection and movement practices in experiential sessions.
• Share and generate ideas for development.
• Share in professional and creative energy to support and nourish you as a practitioner.
• Connect in a beautiful, enlivening and celebratory atmosphere and find your local peers and networks for ongoing support and inspiration.
• There will be a number of sessions to choose from, informal discussion opportunities in smaller groups, a large conference plenary for everyone with a panel of experienced guest practitioners, a poster display opportunity for a limited number of delegates (first come first served) and a social event with a meal on Friday night at a special venue in Lancaster!
About the Experiential sessions:
The experiential sessions include a choice of guest presenters or community practice. The community practice session is a networking and co-creation space for existing and developing projects in Somatic Movement practice.
