SOMATIC MOVEMENT COURSE

6-Session Friday Evening Course

A structured, closed-group course in somatic movement and music, held on Friday evenings over seven weeks with a deliberate pause in the middle.

This is a closed container, designed for people who want continuity, depth, and a carefully held environment — not a drop-in experience.

Course Structure

Each session includes:

Opening circle — arrive and orient the group
Guided movement & music-led practice
Closing circle — integrate and complete the evening

The pause in week 4 allows time for reflection and integration before the second half of the course.

The Seven Sessions

Week 1 — Arriving
Orientation and settling into the body. Establishing the container and shared rhythm.

Week 2 — Range
Exploring movement possibilities and physical expression. Confidence in your own movement language.

Week 3 — Pulse
Rhythm, momentum, and vitality. Upright movement, repetition, groove.

Week 4 — Pause
(No session) Deliberate break for integration.

Week 5 — Proximity
Movement in relation to others. Optional interaction, choice, and sensitivity.

Week 6 — Play
Ease, responsiveness, and enjoyment. Shared play within the group.

Week 7 — Integration
Completion and coherence. Solo movement, shared space, and collective presence.

About the Intensive

This course is guided by Temenos founder Felix Oram through:

Careful facilitation
Strong timing and structure
Deeply curated music designed for long-form movement journeys

The closed-group format allows:

Familiarity and trust to build
Deeper engagement week by week
A level of openness and connection not possible in open drop-in sessions

Who this is for?

This intensive is for people who:

Value continuity and depth
Want to engage fully rather than sample
Are curious about movement, music, and shared space
Are willing to commit to a process over time

If that isn’t you, this is not the right format — and that’s intentional.
