The Art of Being Present

Introduction to Breema class
In-person


This free event is offered as part of Bay Area Dance Week 2025.

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.

10:00-11:30am        Class
11:30am-12:00pm   Mini-sessions for new students

Now almost 30 years later, this wholistic, inclusive, common sense, principled practice and philosophy has become the foundation of my psychotherapeutic work. BREEMA is simple, practical, universal yet rudimentarily human, and offers us nothing less than...
