Taller de Giros Alchemy Spinning en Madrid

Taller de Giros Alchemy Spinning en Madrid

Descubre el poder de las danzas giratorias con el taller de giros Alchemy Spinning el 28 de mayo del 2023 en Madrid

El taller es una invitación a explorar Alchemy Spinning™-una innovadora práctica de danza giratoria inspirada en la danza sufí, que se encuentra en la intersección del mindfulness y el movimiento, y que promueve un intenso florecimiento creativo y personal.

Girar, en lugar de ser una meta o un destino, se convierte en un viaje en espiral hacia una mayor conciencia corporal y espiritual, y una mayor autoexpresión.

Alchemy Spinning™ utiliza danza, movimiento, respiración consciente y meditación para conectar profundamente con el cuerpo, soltar las tensiones mentales y corporales, y liberar la energía.  Trabajamos la presencia plena en el cuerpo y en el espacio, y desde esa presencia plena los bailarines bailan, improvisan y se expresan libremente. La conexión con el ritmo nos ayudará a centrar la mente y a adentrarnos hacia el trance. Aprenderemos a girar como los derviches experimentando un estado de expansión de conciencia.

Durante años, Raquel Santiago ha estado explorando las danzas giratorias del mundo para comprender y destilar sus beneficios, y para conectarlos con otras disciplinas y tradiciones de sabiduría somática. El resultado es una disciplina verdaderamente única que une el movimiento y lo transpersonal, y que abre nuevas fronteras de descubrimiento a bailarines profesionales, amantes de la danza y principiantes por igual. Alchemy Spinning fue gestada en Barcelona y desarrollada en EE.UU.

Abierto a todo el mundo. No se requiere una condición física especial ni experiencia en danza.

Discover the Power of Whirling-Alchemy Spinning Workshop with Raquel Santiago

Discover the Power of Whirling-Alchemy Spinning Workshop with Raquel Santiago

This workshop is an invitation to explore and deepen our Alchemy Spinning practice –a powerful and yet accessible whirling modality at the intersection of mindfulness and movement, which promotes an intense creative and personal blossoming.

Whirling, rather than being a goal or a destination, becomes a spiral journey towards greater body wisdom, self-expression and self-knowledge.

In our practice we will use different forms of dance, movement, breath work and meditation.

For years Raquel Santiago  has been exploring the whirling dances of the world to understand and distill their benefits, and to connect these with other disciplines and somatic wisdom traditions. The result is a truly unique discipline that bridges the somatic and the transpersonal realms, and that opens up new frontiers of discovery to professional dancers, dance lovers and novices alike.

What you will learn

  • Develop a whirling super mindfulness practice
  • Expand your consciousness, and reach a higher potential.
  • Learn how to root yourself in the Earth
  • Learn how to make energy flow along your spine.
  • Balance your brain hemispheres.
  • Activate your vertical axis –which connects Heaven and Earth along our spine.
  • Activate your horizontal axis –which crosses our heart and projects our being into the world
  • Connect your inner spirals with the larger spiral movements of our planet, our solar system, our galaxy, and beyond.
  • Unleash our own power to heal yourself, your relationships, and the world.

The Alchemy Spinning™ practice is open to people of all ages, levels, and physical conditions.

We typically start off with nurturing, meditative, somatic practices that will prepare our bodies, minds and spirits for whirling. Once we are ready, we will create a safe, open space to share in the transformative experience of whirling. At the end of each session we will open a space for group integration and sharing.

May 21st 2022, 12-3pm

Venue: Renew Yoga  35 Petaluma Blvd N, Petaluma, CA 94952

Cost: $45 / Early Bird $40 until May 15, 2022.
