ForRest / Within
a somatic movement workshop exploring the kinesphere of rest
/
Where does rest live in your body?
What shapes does it make?
This 2-hour workshop explores rest as something we enter, rather than something we achieve: an environment continuous with the body, where inner and outer begin to blur. A space of yield that doesn’t disappear us, but holds us in a kind of living suspension: a kinesphere of rest.
Through guided somatic movement, embodied mark making, and sensory awareness, we’ll attune to quieter processes: shifts between motion and potential, movement and stillness. The kinds of changes that unfold when nothing obvious seems to be happening. Like the mycelium beneath the soil, we will explore the felt-sense of the earth's cycle: where rest acts as regeneration in motion. The body becomes both guide and site of inquiry, revealing how rest moves, gathers, and reorganizes within us.
Rest, here, is not passive. It is a form of potential: a re-patterning of energy.
At the same time, we’ll hold the question of access: how rest is shaped by the world around us: granted, structured, withheld. What does it mean to reclaim rest as something inherent, rather than something earned?
This workshop offers space to listen for your own ForRest. Something already present in the body, waiting to be recognized. Asking: what does your rest feel like? How does it move? What shapes does it make?
No prior experience needed.
Just a body, and a willingness to explore.
