Description:
Through the practice of Authentic Movement, we investigate how, rather than moving our bodies in habitual ways, or those dictated by the outside,
we can be led by our bodies into movement.
Eyes-closed movers heeding impulses for movement and stillness; silence and sound, serve also as witnesses to one another, regarding each other with
compassion, curiosity and care.
An interplay of embodiment, contemplation, creativity, and mystery, the practice connects us to our bodies, our creative and physical impulses, and to our exquisite sensitivity and empowerment.
All bodies welcome! -- Both the Ann Arbor and Detroit spaces are fully accessible .

"I am so grateful to have discovered this practice. Stefanie has created a rare space to safely dive into the body's own messages and inner guidance, to allow movement itself to reveal, release, create and be. If your body is craving to move in complete creative freedom, unencumbered by right or wrong, or judgement; if you are curious what your body itself might reveal to you, I highly recommend this practice and Stefanie's work– she is a brilliant facilitator!"
- Kath Weider, Singer/Spiritual Practitioner
