Well, this social/political movement class has Alison and I wondering what we'll project ourselves into. How does Somatics play a part in conflict resolution; uniting oppositional beings, so that tensions of difference are present w/a deepening sense of breath, bone & gesture...Embodied language. Art. Movement. "Consensual Matrix".

Hmmm. I don't want to be a therapist. I don't want to be an emotional mediator. I want to be a movement educator. Not to be mistaken for a P.E. teacher. Rather an educator on the physiological effects of exercise and disease. Lucky for me, there's institutions, centers and such right here in SF- Then there's programs a plenty beyond (Ed.D. Program of Movement Sciences and Education @ Columbia).

But for now, I am playing on Team Forrest Yoga, and gaining a MA in Somatic Counseling Psychology and that pays.
