What you will explore
For this instance, I will guide you through the Awareness Through Movement® lessons and sensory-motor skills. Exploring different qualities of movement,
Internal space: from your skin inwards, personal space: your bubble and total space: the floor, walls and surroundings. The exploration of different directions and paths in space.
Exploring different dynamics with yourself, in couples, three, four people and all together.
Evocating productive and reproductive images enriches the meaning of the dancer's intention.
Two modalities Integrated into one format
Feldenkrais® Method
Moshé Feldenkrais
Dr Moshe Feldenkrais developed the Feldenkrais® Method of somatic education.A chronic knee injury prompted him to apply his knowledge of physics, body mechanics, neurology, learning theory and psychology to a new understanding of human function and maturation. His investigations resulted in the formulation of a unique synthesis of science and aesthetics, known as the Feldenkrais Method®”

Body Expression-Dance
Patricia Stokoe
Classical and Modern Dancer, creator of Body Expression-Dance School.
Patricia Meets Moshé Feldenkrais;
"It was in those years, in between 1948 and 1950, that I also met Moshe Feldenkrais. At the beginning of his later career, his work was widely disseminated throughout the world through his courses, books, and disciples. It gave me the key to find my way to solve the problem about the result of the copy of the external model, from which I could find my own "model".

Would you like to move and dance with ease and grace?
This workshop is for those wishing to improve their vocabulary when dancing and those willing to explore their bodies from novel and more multifaceted directions.
"The STEP" is my baby, lovingly and carefully birthed over many years of research and practice in the somatic and creative world.
As a Body Expression Dance teacher, Feldenkrais Practitioner and long term committed dancer of the 5 Rhythms. I have integrated the principles and strategies to provide an environment for exploring and connecting with the body. Creativity, communication, space, rhythm and quality of movement are weaved together toward cohesion and ease.
Moving from the Inside Out, part of my journey.
I always was looking to express myself, interact with the world around me, build relationships, and feel I belong. But for me, it wasn't an easy task, expressing myself through talking wasn't given easily. So I found a way to grow and develop myself through movement. The Body Expression-Dance practice was my ground wire and salvation since I was a child.
Expressing my thoughts and feelings through my own dance, was and continues to be a beautiful and healing journey.

"EVERYBODY CAN DANCE" was Patricia Stokoe's motto, moving from the Inside Out, knowing your body (your instrument) and letting your emotions and feelings arise and manifest through these connections.
This project is my golden dream and It's birthing, I'm honoured to be your teacher and I am looking forward to seeing this dream come true, grow and develop with you.
