Watsu® & OBA Basic with Natalia Chaverri Madden, Fred & Tamara
October 15 - October 18
A course of 4 days.
A Watsu & OBA session offers an opportunity for profound relaxation and letting go, for building trust, for being nurtured and held, for expanding inner and outer boundaries, for releasing emotions and traumas – ultimately, for freeing body and mind in a flow unique to each client.
In Watsu Basic, during which the receiver’s face remains always on the surface, you will learn the qualities and body mechanics required to work with someone in water.
During the OBA Basic part you will bring your receiver under water (with a nose clip), thereby offering a unique experience.
In this beginner’s course, you will learn and practise basic techniques and qualities such as grounding, presence, stillness, movement, and attention in moving another person in water.
You will experience floating others and being floated, both on the surface and under water, thereby creating space for deep relaxation and nurturing body, mind and spirit.
Participants in this course often appreciate the group space, which fosters deep, meaningful and nurturing connections.
Prerequisites: No previous experience required.
