CORPO LIVRE
Weekly practice of movement meditation
facilitated by Constança Morais
A practice of deep awareness and trust in life's intelligence, which takes you where you need to go. The structure of the sessions offers the possibility for each person to develop the movement meditation practice that serves their path and relations. It follows Constança's life-dance approach: Resource > Embody > Release > Integrate
"We begin with listening to the emergent body-mind. What arises there gets enveloped in a somatic movement that eventually develops into a creative expression of the energy that moves us."
The music and the group will support you in the process of bringing movement to what is stuck and integrating it into a new dance.
Venue
All the meetings will happen at Centro Upaya, an oasis in Lisbon (Campolide) where you immediately feel safe and at home. The dance floor is delicious and everything about the space is softly inviting us to relax and open. For the coming months, this will be your second home to dance, share your food and heart... and reconnect.

About Constança
Constança is dedicated to an intense research on life's energetic dance and how it is revealed in our bodies. She explored several movement meditation practices with teachers all over Europe, studied Movement-based Expressive Arts Therapy at Tamalpa Institute and Somatic Experiencing with Liana Netto at Associação Brasileira do Trauma. Her home is in Sintra. This land and the immense ocean nearby are an endless source of insight, poetry and remembrance that all we’re here to do is to allow and serve the universal dance as it unfolds.
