DECOLONISING OUR WAYS

We focus on URGENCY AND PERFECTIONISM for the next three weeks.

So yes ~ this is for you if you want to find a new way of existing and create good resources to support this change. 

Cause ffs, who is sick of the added stress of getting it right, of looking right of it being fucken perfect, and what happens at the other side when we don't have this. Will I still get all of it done without urgency, will I miss out!!! Is there space to change pace>? 

Yes we dance with all of this !!! come for it. Kokiri x

And here is my extra blurb for those who are first time in the zoom with me x 

To dance with intentional awareness around the social constructs we live our lives with is a supportive pathway to making sustainable change. 

Recognizing that systems are unhealthy is one thing, but knowing how to make compassionate changes to 'your way in the world' is often much harder to sustain. I have found over the last few years that the dance of decolonization, with the inclusion of reindigenisation, supports a lasting awareness of your place amongst us all - the good parts of you and the kinda shitty parts too. Our insecurities enter the room when we are challenged to look at how colonized we truly are; defensiveness, guilt, shame, rage, and so on. 

They all arrive... AND this is good. 

This is part of the process, and we dance with the messy, uncertain investigation of your truths. We do this together with creative expression, with music, with the written word, with connection and curiosity. 

What once was a mess will be come clear, and then the radical imagination to what could be next. 

This work, this dance is a gift we can give each other, for our whānau, and for the generations to come. 

The Colonial worldview is damaging, and you know it. 

Be in the movement that brings about lasting change.  Our creative adaptability learned from the resources within embodied movement helps so much with the messiness of life right now. Through the dance, we find clarity; we learn to make intentional discomfort a dance, not a disaster. 

And we do it by viscerally learning with the body and the art in motion process. 

The benefits are rooted in a sense of belonging that supports our worthiness, and therefore, we have space to try something different, make mistakes, learn and grow.   We use the source of our Open Floor Circulim, Manahau Embodied Movement Facilitation and have a place to be human in the fullness of our expression to support the process of being alive right now. 

The class runs for three Mondays this time round, 7-8:30 PM, and then sharing until 9 - optional. 

Zoom is the software we will connect; I recommend getting a speaker or good headphones so the music sounds lush.

Open to all ages, any time zone, all abilities and bodies.
