During this workshop we will delve deep into achugar’s Pleasure Practice with the magic of Dj I.D.O.’s music and what comes up from the collective experience of the group to create our own Spell. A spell for Utopia. Where Utopia is a practice rather than a destination; exploring the relationship between collective practice and dance as healing and ritual.
The Pleasure Practice is achugar’s own practice developed through years of making dances. The practice of being in pleasure is a practice of undoing the learned hierarchical model of embodiment that has been programmed into us and to undo the shame that comes with it to unearth a more liberated, empowered, decolonized, uncivilized self that is more connected to our instincts, our hearts, our guts, and our sex to celebrate togetherness and connection to the earth, to ourselves, and to others.
What to Expect:
This workshop starts as an embodied somatic practice slowly and internally. It connects us with breathing, sensing, moving and sounding from an intuitive knowing that achugar’s pleasure practice’s specific language facilitates. It shifts your perception and embodied experience. It goes from a deeply internal transformative experience and awareness to a collective relational joyful and empowered experience of liberation through acceptance of what is in the room without excluding the shadows or more difficulties that may arise.
