Service Description

DANCING THE ELEMENTS A 24-Class Masterclass in Embodiment Dance Dancing the Elements is the most comprehensive embodiment dance journey I have created: a 24-class masterclass bringing together the movement research, embodied principles and teaching experience I have developed over many years. Across four progressive six-week modules, we will explore the five elements through four interconnected dimensions of movement: MODULE 1: Body — the physical (Aug-Sep) MODULE 2: Space — the psychological (Oct-Dec) MODULE 3: Shape — the emotional (Jan-Feb) MODULE 4: Dynamics — the energetic (Mar-Apr) Each module contains six classes, five elemental workshops followed by an integration class, creating a clear journey from our physical foundations towards increasingly subtle and refined capacities of movement, awareness and expression. The purpose of this course is to become more energetically available to life, more somatically aware of your sensations and more confident and creative through movement and dance. A richer dance and a more resilient relationship with life. You will learn embodiment dance structures to improvise and create movement without being given choreography to reproduce. Each class offers an experiential doorways to discover how the elements exist within your own body. Until now, much of this material has been reserved for the Embodiment Dance Teacher Training. For the first time, I have reformatted it into an experiential journey accessible to anyone. No previous dance experience is required, and t course is not strictly progressive - so it is no problem if you miss a few lessons from time to time. PAYMENT INFO 24x Classes 26th August 2026 - 21st April 2027 Pay in Person or Online (CHF 175 per module) BACKGROUND The elements appear throughout ancient traditions because they offer a powerful language for understanding human experience. Earth grounds and stabilises. Water adapts and flows. Fire activates and transforms. Air expands and opens new possibilities. Ether brings us towards silence, intuition and essence. Each element represents qualities that already live within us. Life continually asks us to ground, adapt, act, expand or listen. Yet we naturally feel more comfortable with certain qualities than others. This course helps us recognise our preferences and patterns while developing greater access to the parts of our movement and expression that may be less familiar. As our elemental range expands, so does our capacity to meet life.
