A Given or a Goal: What is Embodiment? Who gets to say?

Community Discussion with Sarah Barnaby, Amy Matthews & Satu Palokangas

If embodiment is approached as a goal (rather than a given), are we perpetuating the colonization and the commodification of the body that we think we are undoing? This conversation will engage with questions about holding power and privilege in discussions about embodiment, including our assumptions about what embodiment ‘looks like’ and the idea that we can tell if someone is embodied (or not). This will also be an opportunity to share our questions about what it means to teach somatics, to be BMC “professionals” and to view embodiment as an industry.

All times EST.
