Somatics is a movement therapy, a way of re-educating the way our brain senses and moves the muscles. It is an incredibly subtle but effective way of working with the body.
“Dancing as if language had surrendered to movement– as if this ritual, this wordless ceremony, was now the way to speak, to whisper private and sacred things, to be in touch with some otherness...” – Brian Friel, 'Dancing at Lughnasa'
A bit about Lisa
Lisa is a senior Movement & Mediation teacher with 15 years’ experience of teaching. She has been resident teacher here at Lisnavagh for six years and teaches retreats and workshops several times per year both at home and abroad. From a young age she studied contemporary ballet and jazz and returned to movement & meditation studies in her late twenties, attending several accredited programmes in Ireland and the UK, gaining qualification up to diploma level.
Lisa says, " I enjoy facilitating exploration into the felt sense of our inner landscape using asana, stillness and free movement. As a student of the Tantric and Buddhist schools of philosophy, I employ techniques that assist in the skillful mastery of an invisible art form that permits us to know ourselves as both the Wave that navigates the Ocean and the Ocean itself in which we abide. This eternal dance that goes on either with or without conscious presence until the end, is the most worthy subject to inform a life time of practice and enquiry enabling us to live with each passing year in a state of greater joy and contentment
