Snowy 6th Feb 2009

It's been a while since I last blogged- it's not to say that I haven't thought about it but I haven't been moved enough to blog. So it's kinda ironic that my blog was set up in relation to movement and how the lack of significant movement has stopped me from blogging.

Since the buffet last May, I haven't organised any group moving event. I have been very wrapped up with entering my 3rd year of psychotherapy training, looking for and starting placements etc. So it was to my surprise that a few weeks ago, when I casually looked up the Presencing Institute to see what, if anything, might be happening, I saw the 'community' section of PI. What's more, I was overjoyed when I saw that I could join the community. I feel it's been a long time coming- like I have been waiting for a long time to connect with others who have been touched by Otto's Presencing workshop in one form or another. I am now really excited by the prospect of being able to meet up with others in London in a couple of weeks- I can't wait to see who they are and what connects us. Another unexpected surprise is that Arawana, who is the inspiration behind some of my longing for movement and moving in groups, will be in London in a couple of weeks. I am looking forward so much to finding out more about her Presencing Theatre and to see what that involves. Also related to it is the potential opportunity to meet the people who will be attending Arawana's Embodied Presence Practice workshop in London....who knows, moving in groups might happen yet!
