“It takes courage to open the heart and learn what anguish it has and what remedies can be found within it.” – Michael Meade

In this 5-day online retreat, we participate in a multi-faceted movement range where we dance wildly and tenderly, fiercely and freely, deepen through ritual, and explore intrinsic movement. We use the movement practices of Soul Motion, Open Floor and Continuum Inquiry.

In these polarized and fractured times, we are called to imagine more courageously. We will build resources and awaken courage to simmer in the tension, in the paradox of awe and what is awful. In times of trouble, we learn to listen to the deeper imagination until hidden insights emerge.

Michael Molin-Skelton guides the movement practices of Soul Motion and Open Floor. Here we create a sanctuary where our longings and desires may root, rise, reach, radiate and rest. Through movement and pause, silence and sound, witnessing and being seen, ritual and prayer, we will dance with what is currently moving within us and abide in the arms of the mystery.

Susan Harper guides Continuum explorations where we enliven the fluid dynamics inside our organism. We soften and liberate our body/psyche with aware touch and primordial breaths, sounds and movement.

Susan and Michael, midwives of movement and ritual, will invite you to listen and linger on the potent cusp of your soul’s journey. In this pregnant pause no-thing needs to happen and every-thing is possible.

Event Format

Each day (except the 4-hour session Monday morning) we will have two sessions. Michael will inspire us through spoken word, invite us to move at the speed of trust and self-acceptance, and open co-creative rituals to remember and re-create ourselves. Through inspirational principles and experiential instructions, Susan guides meditative, perceptual explorations, and an extended Continuum dive (no need to look at a screen.)

There will be time for questions and answers to refine the process of our soulful inquiry and for sharing our experiences. We will make use of breakout rooms for paired exercises and smaller group dialogues.

This intensive is an opportunity to have deep soul time for reflection, contemplation and transformation. If you need to miss a session due to time differences or other issues, please view the recording as soon as you can. Recordings will be provided only for those who attend this live event and will be available for review for 6 months.

This 5-day intensive is for those new to Continuum and Soul Motion, as well as those with decades of experience.
