Covid Safety~ Our classes are limited to 8 students in our very large studio to ensure 6+feet of social distancing. Masks are required. Your safety and comfort is important to us in these disquieting times.
Dear Ones,
We are navigating new territories without a map, only ancient stars. The collective nervous system is in danger of a high voltage burn-out. Yoga and movement can be the perfect medicine. These practices, when honoring the roots, bring balance to the body mind and spirit. We do not offer exercise classes at Be Moved Studio. We offer the opportunity to take your practice deeper. You will not find power-based classes or classes that demand a full extension of a pose that is beyond the reach for most of us. Wherever your body lands is your “full extension”. In fact, we might ask you to use more props for the sheer comfort in using them. We strive to meet you where you are. We are living in a time that is imperative that we learn to slow down, ask for help (props), dance a little freer, breathe a little deeper. In times like these, slowing down can be the most challenging practice. Being asked to feel from the inside and listen deeply to your own body, to discover your own full expression of the pose, the dance, the movement exploration can be the deepest experience of yoga. We feel your experience at Be Moved will equally challenge and stretch you in body, mind and spirit.
Thank you for your continual support in our efforts to decolonize Yoga and honor the roots of the practice.
In motion,
Laura
Located at 2 E. 7th street in Downtown Lawrence, Kansas in the historic Liberty Hall Building.
COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS
- Being together is a brave space.
- We come to the studio with a sense of curiosity and wonder.
- We communicate using “I” statements and take personal responsibility.
- We take a breath before responding or engaging.
- We make room in ourselves to be respectful of different perspectives.
- We practice “Ouch” and “Oops” by stating when we feel infringed upon, and apologize without question or defense when we have infringed.
- We practice “Step up, Step back” and are aware of the energetic space we take up.
- We strive for this to be anti-oppressive space and are conscious of points of privilege/oppression that live in the room, and the power dynamics between us.
- We practice confidentiality and do not speak about shared experience.
- We balance our self care and our community care.
Be Moved Studio acknowledges Michelle Cassandra Johnson and Karine Bell of Rooted Global Village, whose work and training have helped facilitate these agreements.
