IDENTITY AND SELF-ESTEEM -The force for self-realization

Seduction and Determination of Tiger and Snake

Bologna, 12-13 October 2013

In Prof.Toro's opinion, "these animals are considered kinetic archetypes from the symbolic point of view, and therefore as postural expression of our existence. This allows us to build a poetic profile of our identity".

The tiger has the intensity of the fire, determination much tonicity, together with lightness and fluidity. The energy of the tiger is radiating. Its movements are sensual, synergic and limber.

The snake has mainly movements connected to the earth, like the contact with the primordial, the concreteness, the sexuality, the reality. Its movements are sinuous and harmonic, and for this it is identified as an archetype of sexual origin. Adherent, charming, voracious. It's energy has origin from the pelvic area and rides up until its hypnotic eyes.

In this workshop we'll go deep into two attitudes which are in common between the tiger and the snake: seduction and determination, with all their chances and alternatives.

To build, to Create, to Transform - Brahma, Vishnu e Shiva

Bologna, 09-10 November 2013

The human organism is constantly into transformation and renovation. The universe itself is constantly into an harmonizing process; winds, rain, flashes, are all movements to acquire equilibrium.

Rediscovering own gestures, creating own spaces, means transforming.

Many times the unbalance in our life, or the little pleasure which we live with, causes deep dissatisfaction and calls for deep changes.

Some old attitudes are not useful anymore, at the opposite many other have to be maintained, like the human values of love, the spontaneousness of the discoveries, the innocent smile, the tenderness of embraces.

To mantain these estimable human aspects may be useful as a foundation over which to build new ways to be and to communicate ourselves.

Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are elements of the indian trilogy, and represent the forces of creation, preservation and transformation.Their respective dances offer a deep "vivencial" possibility and the feedback of these features.

The actions are born in the heart, are preserved in their entity, and transform themselves into the existence.

The transformation is totally connected with the building and the preservation. Through love life is born, labirinths are built, movement are transformed, faces are enlightened and so a new life is born again.

IDENTITY AND SELF-ESTEEM -The force for self-realization
Bologna, 07-08 December 2013

Identity recalls: be strong, genuine, authentic, deep, intimate, natural, etc… Self-esteem is love ourselves, be self-satisfied, accept ourseselves and be faithful to ourselves. The possibility to develop our natural force to love and above all love ourselves through our delightful actions and emotions and through our momentary limits.

Thanks to its movement, a cell shows to be alive and contacts other cells and the world. The love encounter between a sperm cell and an egg cell creates a new life. Movements represent the deep expression of the new life. Our internal impulses generate our external movements, our expressive manifestations to the external world create an internal “move”. Emotions create gestures and gestures create emotions.

Dance makes us stronger because it frees our authenticity, reinforces our identity, gives us the sense of totality.

Once both warriors and farmers danced. They were used to thank life dancing. Dancing they faced their fears, the secrets of life and encountered Gods; the fusion with the “other” occurred through love dances.

Yang dances restore our greatness, independence, grip on reality, capacity of being. Yin dances deeply restore our vibrations, pleasure, emotions, happiness and intensity.
To open up to the other means to know ourselves, to look at someone in the eyes from the bottom of one’s hearth means to be perceived in all our beauty and fragility, means let our power of giving love and our sensuality be revealed in an authentic way. It means feeling as the other’s vibration is ours, feeling ourselves, being perceived and therefore estimate our value. It means to realize the we have wonderful abilities which we often don’t know.

During this workshop we will work on being strong, tonic, rhythmic, determined, open, capable; at the same time love, trust, fuse, enjoy, surrender, recognize the life, caress, communicate tenderness, breathe together with the others and be in the world.

Identity, dance, love and self-esteem give us the force for our self-realization.
