Understand. Embody. Connect.

 

What You’ll Learn and Experience:

 

🧠 The Neuroscience of Movement & Emotion
Discover how rhythmic movement, music, and group synchrony activate neural networks associated with pleasure, connection, emotional regulation, and neuroplasticity. Learn how Biodanza stimulates the limbic system, oxytocin production, and vagal tone.

 

🧘 The Psychology of the Vivencia
Explore the psychological mechanisms that underlie the vivencia (intense present-moment experience), including embodiment, affective attunement, and symbolic movement. Understand how nonverbal expression supports identity integration, trauma resolution, and emotional safety.

 

🧩 Theory into Practice: Guided Explorations
Experience a series of carefully designed practical exercises—inspired by Biodanza but adapted for a learning environment—that demonstrate key concepts such as affective movement, mirroring, eye contact, and connection through music. These will be reflective, gentle, and accessible to all bodies.

 

🗣️ Integration & Discussion
Engage in reflective dialogue and group discussion to help integrate insights and apply them in therapeutic, educational, or personal development settings.

Whether you're a therapist, educator, coach, dancer, or simply curious about the science behind embodied transformation, this workshop offers practical tools, deep insight, and inspiration rooted in the essence of Biodanza—without requiring prior dance experience.

 

The course recording will be available for 7 days after the workshop.
