"Love is the most healing force in the world"



"Love is the most healing force in the world; nothing goes deeper than love. It heals not only the body, not only the mind, but also the soul. If one can love then all one´s wounds disappear. Then one becomes whole - and to be whole is to be holy.

Unless one is whole one is not holy. The physical health is a superficial phenomenon. It can happen through medicine, it can happen through science. But the innermost core of one´s being can be healed only through love. Those who know the secret of love know the greatest secret of life. Then there is no misery for them, no old age, no death. Of course the body will become old and the body will die, but love reveals to you the truth that you are not the body. You are pure consciousness, you have no birth, no death. And to live in that pure consciousness is to live in tune with life. Bliss is a by-product of living in tune with life." Osho

Vindecarea emotiilor prin miscare, dans si exprimare: Heartbeat- A Taste of Freedom, workshop cu Sangeet, 09-12 Dec '10/ 5 Rhythms- 2nd level

Aloha, prieteni!

Mai e putin pana vom explora impreuna Heartbeat- A Taste of Freedom (Bataia inimii- Gustul libertatii) - ultimul workshop cu Sangeet ce va avea loc in Bucuresti in acest an intre 09-12 Dec.
Al doilea nivel – lucrul cu „bătaia inimii” (sau „lucrul din „Heartbeat”), este despre vindecarea emoţiilor prin mişcare, dans şi exprimare, şi este deschis celor care au încheiat cel puţin un workshop de „Valuri” („Waves”) de week-end cu un profesor autorizat de 5 Ritmuri.

„Heartbeat” este despre a găsi înlăuntrul nostru locuri ce vibrează cu iubire-de-sine şi acceptare, astfel încât să putem construi o fundaţie pentru a redescoperi unicitatea noastră.
Este al doilea nivel al lucrului cu cele 5 Ritmuri, în care putem crea un mediu sigur şi în care suntem sprijiniţi, în propriul nostru ritm, să explorăm, să simţim, să dansăm şi să exprimăm părţile care adesea rămân în umbră sau complet ascunse, aducându-ne înapoi într-un loc de echilibru interior şi întregire...

„Gustul libertăţii noastre” este o călătorie care începe prin a obţine uşor o senzaţie a ceea ce ESTE în acest moment, întorcându-ne la o conexiune iubitoare profundă cu corpurile noastre şi cu Pământul din care facem parte. Apoi ne (a)ducem prezenţa in Focul nostru interior, învăţând din nou să trezim, să rămânem în, şi să ne bucurăm de propria noastră putere.

Următoarea etapă este…când începem să devenim conştienţi şi să ne scuturăm de bagajul inutil al multor ani, care poate că ne-a ţinut izolaţi şi amorţiţi şi incapabili să ne simţim inimile, suntem capabili să deschidem porţile către propria noastră creativitate, recunoscători că suntem vii şi că simţim.
Ajungând în cele din urmă la un loc în care putem face pace cu noi înşine, profund mişcaţi şi redescoperind un spaţiu în interior care ne hrăneşte, asta poate fi ceva destul de simplu şi totuşi miraculos.

Adesea, ce descoperim prin şi în acest dans şi lucru cu mişcarea, poate fi o experienţă puternică de vindecare, şi cu paşi mici şi o practică regulată, putem de asemenea să fim capabili să învăţăm sa recream viaţa noastră de zi cu zi într-un mod care este mai întregitor, echilibrat şi armonios.

Inner & Outer Space and the Breath- Contact Improvisation Intensive with Dorka Farkas, 19-21 Nov@ Studio Experimental


Aloha, dancing friends!

Between 19-21 November we invite you to an intensive Contact Improvisation & Authentic Movement experience with Dorka Farkas
This weekend we will spend some time with exploring our bodies, how the human structure is `designed` and observe it in `action`. We try to sink deep to understand more about body and mind, alone and in partnering. We will use experimental anatomy, Contact Improvisation, possibly yoga and Authentic Movement. We can play later in smaller and bigger groups with focus on vision, our perception of space, using different structures for improvisation.
Breathing is an action that connects me with the outer world, and it connects us all, if we are in the same space. Actually also if we are not :)
We will play with changing our breath, see how it changes our dance, but also with simply letting ourselves breath as we can, forgetting about it, and returning to it with our attention.We won`t stop it anyway...
Take a deep breath and come along!

Dorka Farkas was born in 1976 in Szolnok, Hungary. During her secondary school studies she was member of the Globe Acting Studio where she was teaching movement. Moving to Budapest she takes Instructing Yoga classes at the Buddhist College and she is a member of the alternative theatre group Arvisura. She meets improvisation and contact - improvisation in 2000 on Katalin Balla’s regular classes. Between 2000-2006 she lives in Belgium, raising her child and giving yoga based movement classes. In 2006-2007 she attends a one year educational training in ISLO, Finland and becomes a Creative Dance Instructor. She moves to Transylvania in 2009. Her most influencing teachers include Daisuke Yoshimoto, Katalin Balla, Khosro Abidi, Daniel Lepkoff, Malcolm Manning, Jess Curtis. Her recent interest is how to dance with anybody, any time...

Dance as a total meditation@ Studio Experimental



Nataraj is dance as a total meditation. This technique has 3 stages, lasting a total of 65 minutes. Disappearing in the dance, then relaxing into silence and stillness is the route inside for this method.

Dance, giving it all you have got, is an easy and natural way to turn in.

"Let the dance flow in its own way. Don't force it. Rather, follow it: allow it to happen. It is not a doing but a happening. Remain in the mood of festivity. You are not doing something very serious. You're just playing, playing with your life energy, playing with your bioenergy, allowing it to move in its own way. Just like the wind blows and the river flows you are flowing and flowing. Feel it.

When the movement becomes ecstatic then it is a dance. When the movement is so total there is no ego, then it is a dance.

And you should know that dancing came into the world as a technique of meditation. The beginning dancing was not the dance, it was to achieve an ecstasy where the dancer was lost, only the dance remained- no ego, nobody manipulating, the body flowing spontaneously.

There is no need to find any other meditation. Dance itself becomes a meditation if the dancer is lost. The whole point is how to lose oneself. How you do that, or where, is irrelevant. Just lose yourself. A point comes where you are not and still things go on…as if you are possessed.

Dance is one of the most beautiful things that can happen to a man. So don’t think about meditation separately. Meditation is needed as something separate for people who don’t have any very deep creative energy; no direction for their energy to get so deeply involved that they can be lost.

But a dancer, a painter, a sculptor need not have any other meditation. All that they need is to make their dimension so deeply penetrating that a point of transcendence comes. And there is nothing like dancing…

[…] Make it a point to simply dance to God. So there is no need to be technical- because He is not an examiner. You will simply dance as a small child… as a prayer. Then dance will have a totally different quality to it. You will feel for the first time that you are taking steps that you have never taken before; that you are moving in dimensions which have never been known to you. Unfamiliar and unknown ground will be traversed.
By and by, as you will become more and more in tune with the unknown, all techniques will disappear. And without techniques, when dance is pure and simple, it is perfect.
Dance as if you are deep in love with the universe, as if you are dancing with your lover. Let God be your lover.”- Osho, The Orange Book

If you want to experience dance as a meditation, join us in Studio Experimental.

Here is a short demo of 1st stage of this dance meditation. Enjoy it!

5 Rhythms (cele 5 ritmuri)@Studio Experimental: "Being who you are in the beat, in the moment"- Gabrielle Roth

                                           
"Cele 5 ritmuri sunt moduri de a fi. Sunt o harta ce ne ghideaza oriunde vrem sa mergem, pe toate planurile constiintei- interior si exterior, inainte si inapoi, pe planul fizic, emotional si intelectual. Cele 5 ritmuri marcheaza calea inapoi catre un sine real, un sine instinctiv, pasional, salbatic si vulnerabil". 

Aloha, prieteni!

No Dimensions Meditation@ Studio Experimental



"Consciousness is a circle: no dimensions. It simply is, neither directing to the north nor directing to the south. It simply is a circle."- Osho

This is a powerful method for centering one's energy in the hara - the area just below the navel. It is based on a Sufi technique of movements for awareness and integration of the body. Because it is a Sufi meditation, it is free and non-serious. In fact it is so non-serious that you can even smile while you are doing it.

This one-hour meditation has three stages. During the first two stages the eyes are open but not focused on anything. During the third stage the eyes are closed.
The music, created especially for this meditation, begins slowly and gradually becomes faster and faster as an uplifting force.

If you want to experience this powerful method that brings us to our center of being (centering our energy in the hara- the area just below the navel), join us for this programe in Studio Experimental . No Dimensions meditation will happen in the afternoon.

"Sway with the moon, look at the moon, feel full with the moon"- Osho on full moon :)


"The full-moon night has a very alchemical impact on the human consciousness. Buddha became enlightened on the full-moon night – not only that, he was born on the same full moon night, he became enlightened on the same full-moon night, he died on the same full moon.
His birthday, his death day, his enlightenment day, all fall on one day – the full-moon night… the same month, the same night. The full moon has tremendous importance, so just do one thing: you can remain available, that’s all. If it happens, good; if it doesn’t happen don’t feel worried about it.

Each full-moon night start waiting. It will be coming more and more and it will be staying more and more. And when it comes, don’t try to control it. Don’t try to be in that state a little longer; don’t bring desire in, because those are all disturbances and they poison the whole thing.
It is a door of the beyond. Just start waiting for it… waiting but with tremendous patience, with no hurry. Don’t try to drag it. It is beyond human control but one can manage to invite it in a very indirect way. Take a bath, sing a song, sit silently in the night – wait for it.  


Sway with the moon, look at the moon, feel full with the moon… feel the moon showering on you, dance a little, sit again, wait. Let the full-moon night become your particular night for meditation – it will be helpful.”

Awareness - Being in the Moment

A beautiful amazing video about practical techniques that bring maybe just relaxation in our life - yeah, we all probably think we are relaxed or have our life or emotions "under control":)
Sometimes, we need to have like tools that we can simply take out of the pocket in order to relax, to improve our life's quality, to be in the moment.
That's what we explore in Studio Experimental: practical and sometimes funny tools for a quality life, a life lived with our totality...Discovering such techniques can bring a different life perspective :)

We are grateful to Maneesha James for this video.

Our Sacred Earth Meditation & Contact Improvisation Jam@ Studio Experimental

“You are the highest evolved part of the earth. Have you ever considered?- your body is earth, your brain is earth, your heart is earth. […]. There seems to be no connection between the earth and your eyes, but your eyes are nothing but the eyes of the earth. It is an effort of the earth to see. Your ears are an effort of the earth to hear the music.”- OSHO

“In the Social Meditations, you encounter another human being as a focal point, like a mandala, so that you can discover your inner being. Human connection is just as important as finding yourself. Social Meditation is a great way of getting fulfilling human connection and making friends". - Veeresh

Ca o metafora, contact improvisation este o meditatie sociala, in care oamenii interactioneaza unii cu ceilalti. Contact impro nu este nimic altceva decat arta ascultarii – a te asculta pe tine si pe ceilalti-, arta de a fi prezent si receptiv la ceea ce ne ofera fiecare moment.

Va invitam sa exploram impreuna legatura pamant-corp- miscare- contact.

Intre orele 15.00- 16.30 vom explora impreuna Our Sacred Earth Meditation- o meditatie sociala creata de Veeresh, presedintele si fondatorul Institutului OSHO Humaniversity din Olanda.
Apoi vom lua o pauza de ceai si de la 17.30 vom continua explorarea cu un contact improvisation jam.

Our Sacred Earth Meditation va fi condusa de Jivan, acreditat de OSHO Humaniversity sa raspandeasca aceasta meditatie.

Ca de obicei, jam session-ul va incepe cu o ora de incalzire coordonata si o introducere in Contact Improvisation, cu Andreea Belu.

Nota:
- Pentru contact impro este bine sa aveti protectii pentru genunchi (se gasesc la farmacii sau la magazine sportive) si haine lejere (eventual un tricou in plus:)
- Va recomandam sa ajungeti cu 10 minute inainte
- Se poate participa si doar la o parte din program, fie la meditatie, fie doar la jam

Meeting on the dance floor: Contact Improvisation Jam Gathering


"you can communicate very directly to the other person through the touch"



Aloha, dancing friends!

Jam session-ul va incepe cu o ora de incalzire coordonata si o lectie introductiva in Contact Improvisation, cu Dorin Ionescu.

Invitatia se adreseaza oricui dornic sa descopere sau sa redescopere Contact Improvisation, indiferent de experienta.

"Free improvisation jam

Free, uncontrolled, improvisational movement – with partner, in solo, in trio, with (live) music, in silence.

There is no leader in the jams. Each participant can warm up in his or her own tempo and needs, can tune up for his or her body, partner and start dancing. When the dance is over (duet, trio, group) you can watch the other dancers from the side and can join them any time either with touching them or without it. In the end of the dances it is possible that the pairs want to discuss what has been happening. They are free to do so quietly at the side of or outside the room so that they do not disturb the other dancers.

Each jam is different, in which everybody is responsible for themselves. You can always finish a dance or you can go on with it as long as you like. It is also very exciting just to watch, explore the dancers, and if the sight is inspiring let this impulse take you into the space and join the dancers."- www.kontaktbudapest.hu

Nota:
- Este bine sa aveti protectii pentru genunchi (se gasesc la farmacii sau la magazine sportive) si haine lejere (minim un tricou in plus :)

"The body is not the question – you are the question.
When I say shake, I mean your solidity, your rock-like being should shake to the very foundations so that it becomes liquid, fluid, melts, flows. And when the rock-like being becomes liquid, your body will follow. Then there is no shake, only shaking. Then nobody is doing it; it is simply happening. Then the doer is not.” Osho
