TRAININGS AND FOUNDATIONS

Every door I open
I practice how it is
to move through,
to move into,
to offer my attention
to what is new,
Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer from “Ode To Opening A Door”

 

Living as an embodied presence and sharing your gifts through teaching and the ways in which you move through life is a journey into the heart of the person who dreams of becoming a teaching and teacher of this work. For those whose souls are leaning into the mystery, whose hearts are yearning with desire, whose bodies are tickled with curiosity, the pathway of becoming a Soul Motion teacher moves through the corridors of Foundations, Embodied Leadership and Teacher Trainings. If you are ready to step over the threshold and through the open door, we invite you to follow your heart and answer the call.

TRAININGS

Part Two: Teacher Training: starts 30 January, 2026 Italy

VINCENT MARTINEZ GRIECO, ERIKA FETEKE, CAMILLA STEEN LARSEN, ROCCO FALCONERI, MARCELLA PANSERI + CONSCIOUSDANCEITALY TEACHERS
This last part focuses on teaching Soul Motion maps, on building the journey: of a class, of a day, of a workshop. On the language that invites and welcomes, rather than directs and forces.
On taking risks and having the courage to be ourselves, every time we teach. On creating safe spaces, in which each dancer is free to explore while being in tune with their own feelings.

Soul Motion Leader and Teacher Apprentice Program: Online and In-Person Join when you are ready (Opens Feb 2026), ​Australasia & Pacific

This somatic based leadership program is for anyone who dreams of becoming the teachings of this work, whether that be personally or professionally.

Soul Motion Mastery New Training: 2-9 October, 2026, 10-17 January 2027, 25 April - 2 May, 2027 Germany

WITH DOREEN TÖJNES, EDGAR SPIEKER & MICHAEL MOLIN-SKELTON & WINKY WHEELER
The second part of the training focusses on deepening the somatic experience with the elements of Soul Motion. Building on this, we explore the relationship to the everyday dance and how Soul Motion can become a constant source of strength for life outside the dance space. The more familiar we become with ourselves and Soul Motion, the more we realize that the dance space is only in our imagination a place separate from the rest of our life. The same life themes and questions arise here as there. Therefore, every realization and growth in the dance space is also a growth in our everyday life.

HERE AT LAST

And I finally showed up in my life
And it's halfway through
And that's how long it takes

To undress myself of everything
Everything that is not mine

Unclothed at last
I am here
At the centre of my own life
At the centre of my own life
