The Art of Being Present

Introduction to Breema class
In-person


Experience a new level of aliveness and comfort in the nurturing atmosphere of Breema. This class is down-to-earth and practical. We learn by direct experience of giving and receiving Breema bodywork and doing Self-Breema exercises, which are dynamic expressions of the Nine Principles of Harmony. As body, mind, and feelings begin to function in harmony with each other, the ways you think, feel, and move are revitalized.

No prior bodywork experience is necessary, but please be comfortable sitting and working on a padded floor. Dress comfortably and wear long pants, socks, and be fragrance-free.

1:00-2:30pm     Class
2:30-3:00pm    Mini-sessions for new students

This free event is offered as part of Bay Area Dance Week 2024.
