Fluid Presence™ 1 with Shantam in Italy

Fluid Presence™ 1 with Shantam

Prerequisite: Fluid Presence™ Foundation (or equivalent), Presence of Being™ or Instructor permission. Fluid Presence™ Application Form is required.

Fluid Presence 1 builds upon the foundation of Fluid Presence™ Foundation and Presence of Being™. In this course, we expand on the art of dialog with clients before and after the water-holding portion of the session. We continue to deepen trust in our intuitive role in the therapeutic relationship. Verbal and nonverbal reflection skills will be practiced and refined along with the direct experience of giving from “neutral”. A series of sub-aquatic “frameworks” are presented which allow for greater accuracy within the above and underwater holding-positions. This furthers the giver’s proficiency and confidence to simultaneously transmit security and stability along with fluidity and freedom. Students learn to energetically connect, feel and follow what is happening on all levels. Students expand upon what they have already learned about maintaining tonal match and increase their capacity for remaining open and being a supportive presence.  This course equips students to better navigate the non-ordinary states of consciousness so accessible in the warm-water holistic therapy environment.

Students can expect to explore:

• Expansion of Body Mechanics & Surface Holding-Positions
• Underwater-Holding “Frameworks”
• Sensing, Feeling, Tracking & Following Energy
• Energetic Boundaries
• Refinement of the Art of Breath Connection in Relation to Submerging and Emerging
• Refinement of Communication Skills
• Giving from “Neutral”
• Meditative Self-Inquiry
• Refinement of “Sweet Spot” Between Stability & Invisibility

Fluid Presence 1™ is an integral part of the Fluid Presence™ Provider training in addition to serving all other forms of Aquatic Bodywork Therapy modalities.
