SOUL WHISPERS with Jo Hardy
A Movement Medicine® Weekend Workshop

The human body and heart are woven with a complex tapestry of emotion, sensation, vulnerability, and creativity. To embrace the full spectrum of our human experience is to honor the intricate dance of life, to acknowledge our humanity, and to cultivate a deeper connection to ourselves and the world around us.

An immersive full weekend dance journey designed to evolve the flame of embodied inquiry that expands our sense of intimacy with all that arises. The subtleties of emotions, the textures of sensations, and receptivity to the quality of presence in the space between us, penetrate barriers to the free unfolding of our personal and collective soul.

In the garden of deep dancing, deep listening, and authentic expression, all senses engage and become conduits of perception. A responsiveness and an openness of our whole body and being reveal the multi-dimensional nature of our experience. The space within and the space between us deepens in true intimacy.

This weekend you will dance a lot, connect to yourself and others, and gain insights on how to:

  • Dance deeply, tenderly, and wildly as we find ourselves collectively in this complex and rapidly changing world

  • Use movement to ground, center, and resource yourself and your nervous system

  • Grow an embodied sense of expanded presence and receptivity

  • Embrace what is alive in each moment - deep body listening of the subtleties of emotions and the textures of sensations

  • Cultivate the ability through the dance to follow your experience into a deeper, heart-full unfolding

  • Deepening body and heart intimacy with the texture of the present moment

Jo Hardy

Exploring what facilitates lasting transformation is my passion and has led me to study many perspectives, philosophies, and modalities of transformational work over the last 40 years.  

All of my offerings are rooted in my integration of conscious dance, somatic psychotherapy, mindfulness, presence, dynamic heart inquiry, awakening teachings, Joanna Macy’s Work That Reconnects, and the collective trauma teachings of Thomas Hubl. I am also deeply inspired and influenced by many years of studying Amerta Movement with Suprapto Suryodarmo.

“As I gather years on Planet Earth, what matters most to me is the joy and profound healing of movement and dance, and its potential to enhance presence, embodiment, and relatedness.
