WHO is this immersion FOR?

​

• For dancers, art makers & creatives who are interested in embodied experimentation that is less habitual, in looking more deeply at how their mind works, and who are curious about how creativity and spiritual life intersect. 

 

• For yogis and meditators who are interested in deepening their practice through gates of entry that look different than the ones they might be used to, and who are open to a deeper look into the ways their spiritual practices, curiosity, & creative, more disinhibited responses are connected.

 

• For anyone who loves to move their body and their heart & mind in novel and pleasurable ways that can lead to connection with self, community and insight.  

 

• No previous dance or yoga experience necessarily!  Seriously.  This immersion is interested in accessibility.  It is an intergenerational space for all ages, 16 & up.  Ask Sarah or Eric if you have particular questions or concerns.  

​

       BE BRAVE.

GUIDES:

Eric Geiger & Sarah Clark are both life long dancers and very long time teachers.  They both wound their way from New York City to San Diego in that process.  Sarah has been religiously practicing improvisational, contact & modern dance weekly with Eric in his Wednesday morning class for several years.  Sarah has been struck again and again at the fascinating and illuminating interplay between the dharma & yoga wisdom practices she loves & more regularly teaches and the way Eric leads a dance practice with such warmth, curiosity, skillfulness and depth.  Both Sarah & Eric are excited and grateful to team up for a second time to offer this collaborative immersion.

​

 

EXCHANGE: 

This immersion is offered on a sliding scale as an expression of dana, or wise generosity, as Sarah has learned and practiced it in the dharma tradition.  Dana (pronounced dah-nah) is an expression of both giving and receiving, generously.  Teachings are offered freely, and your financial generosity is deeply appreciated. 

 

The suggested amount for this immersion is $150-300.  The encouragement is to give generously as you are able, AND without undue strain or regret; some will give less while others give more.  

 

Thank you very much for your support.
