Marina Tsartsara – Somatic Art Practice: the three brains (organs)

Qualities of presence and mindful movement 

Marina Tsartsara is an expert in Body-Mind Centering®, an experiential somatic practice that integrates movement, the body and consciousness. Using BMC® you will discover how relations, touch and the world of anatomy can inspire and guide spontaneous movement. Through individual explorations and partner work you develop a deeper sensitivity for listening to your body, space and others.

This workshop encourages creative expression and mindful movement exploration in a safe, supportive environment. Ideal for dancers, performers and anyone who wants to delve into embodied consciousness and creative movement processes based on anatomy. 

Tsartsara gives three workshops in three days. Every day has a different focus. You can attend one workshop to get a taste of the method or feel the added value of fully immersing yourself in the BMC® experience by participating every day.

Day 2: The three brains (organs) (21/08)

Through touch, voice, breathing and movement you will embody specific bones, as well as their character. How can fluidity and structure, mobility and stability complement and support each other?

Marina Tsartsara is a dancer, visual artist and teacher. She is an officially recognized trainer in the Body-Mind Centering® method. She is also co-director of the Greek BMC® program ISTOS and of the postgraduate Trauma, Art & Embodiment course at the Poiesis Institute in Barcelona. She supports the transdisciplinary practice ‘Somatic Art Practice’ that interlaces somatics and artmaking. The main influences in her teaching come from Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen, Curious, Charlie Morrissey, Julyen Hamilton, Deborah Hay, Miranda Tufnell, Rosemary Butcher, Kirstie Simson, Liz Aggiss and others.
