Body Poetry is a learning journey inviting you into the knowing of your body through movement, writing and meditation. It is a practice that has developed through my own process of coming back home to my body. 


In movement, we experiment with different ways of connecting with the knowing of belly, bone, and heart. We then flesh out this body-knowing by allowing words and writing to emerge from the body, through the arm and onto the page.

The stories that emerge, of body and word, can support us in acknowledging and giving space to the parts of ourselves that can live on the edges of our being. As we work to bring our emotion, shadow, desire and animalness into full expression, we can experience release and integration. We also practice body-dreaming, experimenting with how we might respond to life with a sense of imagination, playfulness, and choice. We can notice where our thresholds lie, and consider how we might move through discomfort towards freedom.

Invitations to play and connect with each other through our words and movement create safe opportunities to witness and be witnessed in our own unique Body Poetry. We can also experience how information is shared through our collective body intelligence.

This practice can support our self-expression, whether that might be in the context of writing, moving or simply living. It can refresh our creative process, and can give us the tools to bridge body-mind.
