THEATRE SUMMER CAMP 2022
Morning personal moment
yoga, qi gong shen dao
Giovanna Michaliadi – Sarti, performer and a theater, circus and yoga instructor
every morning 25-29/8/2022
What can I do 30 minutes a day that has a positive impact on my life and the life around me? For 1/2 hours I disconnect for a gradual, deep reconnection with my only homeland, my body. The daily commitment and devotion to a short and honest personal moment with the only culture that my body carries, brings me back to the whole authentic, refreshed and generous. In the morning personal moment (instead of training), we will move inside the field where the practices of yoga, qi gong shen dao and the performing arts meet. Our vehicle, at the same time and goal, is the active listening of the different levels and parts that complete us, through structured and free paths (techniques) that start from the body.
