Three workshops in collaboration with cello player and herbalist apprentice Amy Cox
Moving with Rose is an experiential and sensorial exploration of rose through tea tasting, movement and music in which you will learn to listen and trust the intuitive abilities of your body through movement. First you will be guided into a state of deep receptivity within your body through intuitive and spontaneous movement so that you can better receive and connect with rose. Then you will be invited to sit and meet rose in a sensory tea tasting and really take the time to receive it by paying attention and listening to your body in stillness before moving again in response to rose. If the weather is nice we will be doing the workshop in the rose garden and you will also be able to move in response to the roses there. Finally, live cello music will be played in response to the energy of the garden/room and everyone’s movement . Unlike recorded music which leads the way and doesn’t respond to our movement when we dance, the live cello music will be in dialogue with each of you, individually and as a group, and will guide you into a deeper state of connection with rose.
