✨ THE CLASS ✨
.
This workshop invites participants into conversation and congruence with our internal parts. We will weave principles of Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy & Internal Family Systems parts work into an immersive guided venture to get to know some of our resources, vulnerabilities, and protectors from the inside out. Embodied explorations will allow us to feel the contours of various members of our psyche, gain insight into how these aspects of ourselves work together, and cultivate greater harmony within. Participants will be guided to greet these unsung heroes of the subconscious with curiosity and care, and will be given options to moderate level of participation at every turn. This intimate inquiry will include inner explorations, relational revelations, and opportunities to resource and integrate the gems we unearth together.
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is an evidence-based model of psychotherapy that restores wholeness by addressing and integrating one’s multiple inner “parts.” It is based on the premise that all parts contain valuable qualities and our core Self knows how to heal. https://ifs-institute.com/
Hakomi Mindful Somatic Psychotherapy integrates principles of nonviolence and mindfulness with a comprehensive and experiential body-centered methodology. https://hakomiinstitute.com/

Join us for a series of collaborative exploration at The Somatic Playground! These in-person events will take place on Mondays 7-10pm
Get ready to immerse yourself in a unique experience of connecting with yourself and others in a playful, expressive, & intimate way. Through various somatic exercises and activities, you'll discover new ways to move, connect, let go, and build trust with those around you.
Whether you're a seasoned dancer or have never stepped foot on a dance floor before, this event welcomes everyone. We're cultivating a thoughtful space to explore your body's language, express yourself freely, and connect with like-minded individuals.
In the Somatic Playground, we will cultivate a community of somatic attunement and relational intelligence. Each week, a different facilitator will guide you on a journey of research, play, and practice, honing your abilities to dive into your somatic, emotional, primal, energetic, and relational bodies - learning to listen through touch and taste the pathway of motion. An open jam will follow as a way to continue exploring together sparks and curiosities from class.
So, mark your calendars and come join us at The Somatic Playground for an evening filled with exploration, movement, touch, and connection. Don't miss out on this opportunity to let loose, meet new people, and discover the joy of moving at the rhythm of connection and trust.

Our Community Agreements
.
As teachers, facilitators, and participants, while we support everyone engaging with sovereignty (making good choices for themselves and others), we also understand that trauma has huge influence on people's behavior and experience, so we are trauma informed in the ways we teach, engage, and/or participate in these classes. We also recognize and continue to learn to be aware of the power dynamics that exist or might arise as we engage, and seek to level the playing field of power whenever possible, and engage with utmost attunement and consideration for each other.
Erotic energy may emerge but is not the goal. Sensual touch is welcome - we are exploring all that is possible in terms of how we relate to each other through sensing. Sexual touch is not a part of this container. Please reach out with any questions.
.
Diversity and Inclusion
.
For each class series, we seek to include a diverse group of facilitators to express the full range of humanness, bodies, and experience around race, age, gender, identity, sex, sexual orientation, and more. Some series may appear at first glance to favor some subgroups, and while may be accurate that this is what was available at the time, we continue to include facilitators who fit all of these subgroups.
.
Similarly, and in collaboration with the Bloom App/Community, we seek to include a diverse group of humans and celebrate all experiences, bodies, and experiences, especially of those who have historically been less favored or appreciated.
.
Please reach out with any questions.
.
Refunds or Transfer
.
If it ever turns out that a class isn't for you or that you missed a class for any reason, we'll be happy to either refund you or allow you to come to a future class instead. No problem 🫶
