Authentic Movement is a powerful process in which a person makes a conscious choice to be a mover while being accompanied by a compassionate and non-judgmental witness (teacher/therapist). The movers follow their inner impulse and choose to move or be still and explore sounds, space, sensations, images or memories in their movement experience. Having a compassionate witness to support their journey can make the mover’s  experience safe and possible to integrates the mind, body and spirit.

How does Authentic Movement benefit the participant?
