“In
Eastwest workshops, we develop verbs of permission,
life enhancing words that
sink into the watery soma of the body. We move
ourselves in the idea of body. What we can do
depends on what we invite to happen. We match
the outside to the inside, and arrive on time.
Strength lives in spontaneous moments of dancing
when flesh finds its own expression, and the bones
are so tuned to gravity that they stand by themselves.
Then we are in the flowing space of nature where
spirit moves freely."
- Sondra Fraleigh |
