Terra Soma™ flow - somatic inquiry
Our most general yoga class & an opportunity to experience somatic inquiry as a foundation for yoga practice:
Body-mind sensing (somatic awareness - interoception)
Breath practice (pranayama)
Dynamic, functional flowing movement (asana)
Guided meditation
Deep rest & relaxation
Terra Soma™ is the signature style of Awakening Arts (School of Yoga and Eco-Somatics) as a practice is a synthesis of haṭha yoga, somatic inquiry and embodied awareness / connection. This approach to practice fosters:
Movement intention - cultivating awareness and agency within the body in flow (absorption in presence)
Somatic inquiry - guidance to explore, embody and express movement from various parts, systems and functions of human anatomy and physiology from the perspectives of yoga, western medical science and body-mind centering®.
Permission to colour outside the lines - we are all in different bodies having different experiences. Embracing what is offered as and when you choose to from your own agency and curiosity.
Repetition and progression - easeful short sequences that repeat, and build invite you to deepen and develop somatic inquiry through each repetition of the various shapes and transitions.
Moments without guidance - proving spaciousness in which to explore movement inquiry at your own pace. Teachers are there to support remembering and (re)entering the flow.
Music supports the meditative tone of the practice.
Imagination - metaphor or guided imagery as a means of connection to Self.
Each practice seeks to provide space to learn and grow together.
Suitable for anyone from beginners to experienced yoga students.
