    Fall 2022 Sessions

    We will be starting a new round of somatic supervision starting this Sept. This group is for licensed clinicians who are currently using somatic work in their practice, and would like to have some support in how they work somatically with clients. We will cover themes related to being a somatic-based and dance/movement therapist, and unpack cases that are brought to the group. Space is limited to provide enough time for each clinician to present cases.

    We will meet online on the first Wed of each month, 10-11:30am EST, through April 5, 2023.

    Meeting dates ahead include: Oct 5, Nov 2 and Dec 7.

    Acceptance to group is on a rolling admissions basis. 

    Cost is $280 for four sessions. Payment in full will be due prior to start to secure your space in the group*.

    Some of the themes that we cover include:

    • Somatic Countertransference
    • Mirroring and Un-mirroring
    • Working with the Freeze response
    • Sensing and Listening through the body
    • Three layers of awareness
    • Learning the Language of a Felt Sense

    * This group may count toward your DMT group supervision requirements

    - anyone who works with people in pain (movement, psychology, healthcare, etc.)

    Facilitated by Sandrine Harris (SEP, RSMT/E, GCFP)

    By exploring our anatomy experientially and artistically, we connect more deeply with our bodies, creativity, and lived experience.

    Presented by Tamalpa Institute

    4 Fridays: March 17, 24, 31, April 7, 2023

    Each part of our bodies is unique: each has developed specific functions, moves in particular ways, and has its own stories to tell and dances to dance. In this series, we focus on a new area of the body each week. For each body part, we study anatomy and body mechanics, we explore its movement somatically, and we allow its wisdom to express through drawing, creative writing, and dance. By exploring our anatomy experientially and artistically, we connect more deeply with our bodies, creativity, and lived experience.

    Register

    Learning objectives for this series:

    1. Identify and embody various parts of the body through experiential anatomy

    2. Use the Tamalpa Life/Art Process to make connections between artmaking and lived experiences.

    3. Draw on methods of somatic and expressive arts pedagogy as applied to health, embodiment, and creativity.

    No art or dance experience needed.

    To get the most out of this online class, please prepare a comfortable space to move in with access to your online device. Also, have art supplies ready at hand for the drawing activity and paper and pen for journaling and creative writing exercises.

    Natan Daskal’s background in theater, dance, design and fine arts combine with his love of nature, dedication to social justice, and commitment to personal development under Tamalpa Institute’s approach to learning and living artfully. He has taught movement and the expressive arts to children, youth, and adults in diverse settings. Natan is a member of Tamalpa’s core faculty, and has extensive teaching experience working directly with Anna Halprin as her teaching assistant in public workshops and classes. Natan studied ballet at the Joffrey School in New York City, received his BFA in Communication Design at Parsons the New School for Design, and received his MA in Education at Goddard College where he studied the intersection of somatics, creativity, and community education. natandaskal.com

    • IN-PERSON Workshop at ESALEN INSTITUTE

    This IN-PERSON workshop will be a creative exploration and discovery of what truly matters in your life through movement and art making, listening to the body, and listening to the heart.

    Presented by Esalen Institute

    Register

    March 31-April 3, 2023

    The body is a living narrative, an interconnected web of our physical, emotional, and intellectual experiences. Every organ, bone, body part, and movement holds an energy, a feeling, a memory that calls our attention and seeks expression. With curiosity and care to the stories our bodies hold, we become embodied artists, choreographers of our life experience.

    This workshop will be a creative exploration and discovery of what truly matters in your life through movement and art making, listening to the body, and listening to the heart. When we don’t take time or know how to be creative listeners, the body will tell its stories in disabling ways. Encountering our bodies creatively, we discover artful ways to re-story ourselves, bringing new vision to the life themes that matter to us.

    A process called Body Mapping will lead participants through an art based journey with each body part. Challenges and resources will be identified and explored as rich material for movement, art making, group collaboration and ritual. Participants will explore personal and group creativity, body – mind connections, and engage with psychological themes relevant to our historical and everyday lives.

    Morning sessions will focus on somatic awareness – individual and group movement exploration to tune the physical body to sensation and feeling. Afternoon sessions will facilitate creative encounters with the art mediums of dance, drawing, and spoken and written narrative. Evening sessions will be devoted to presentations of the work created, reflection and questions generated by the day’s work, releasing activities and meditative art practices.

    Participants will explore:

    o Expanding body awareness through somatic movement experiences.

    o Utilizing the creative arts to explore life narratives. Learning methods for movement/dance and expressive arts that can be applied to their personal and professional practices.

    o Practicing approaches to improvisation and performance designed for the beginner and the experienced alike.

    o Employing the arts as a psychological process and communication tool.

    The Halprin Life Art Process developed at Tamalpa Institute innovated groundbreaking work in the fields of somatics, psychology and artistic practice. Anna and Daria Halprin both worked with Fritz Perls, Ida Rolf, and Will Schultz in the early experimental days of Esalen.

    This is an approach to movement/dance as a healing art that is accessible to everyone and is offered in underserved communities.

    20% of faculty tuition goes to Tamalpa ArtCorps social justice programs

We have a few ideas and we would like to hear yours. Men, this gathering is for you. We would love to see you, hear your voices in SoULL, and imagine new forms of care and connectivity.

    As we enter into spring, we’ll explore movement pathways structured around the pelvis to enliven and encourage a sense of support and vitality.

    Presented by Tamalpa Institute

    “Imagine how exciting and alive you would be if your kinesthetic sense were to be heightened and cultivated beyond its present consciousness.” – Anna Halprin

    As we enter into spring, we’ll explore movement pathways structured around the pelvis to enliven and encourage a sense of support and vitality.

    Register

    What can our pelvis tell us about being grounded, flowing, and enlivened in life and art? Working with Anna’s Halprin somatic approach, we set aside time and space for ourselves, to relax the body-mind, to tune in to sensations, and explore pathways that connect the pelvis to other parts of our body. Our focus is on expanding our kinesthetic sense and generating creativity. By paying attention to how we move, we awaken our aliveness, enjoy our vitality and carry our dances into daily life. Through the tools of the Life-Art Process, we become aware of our physical, emotional, and mental responses, and we integrate our experience through drawing and writing.

    No dance experience needed, only a willingness to explore! Please have a comfortable space to move, and drawing and writing materials on hand.

    To get the most out of this online series, please prepare a comfortable space to move in with access to your online device. Also, have art supplies ready at hand for drawing activities, and paper and pen for journaling and creative writing exercises.

    Please note: Tamalpa does not record nor permit the recording of any classes or workshops due to the sensitive and sometimes vulnerable nature of the work, and to protect student privacy.

    This experiential program offers foundational learning in what trauma is, how it impacts our brains, bodies, and relationships, and how we can engage in practices that promote healing and transformation. Trauma-informed mindfulness, embodiment and somatics, and meditation are woven together with neuroscience, applications of Somatic Experiencing® and the power of connection and community care.

    Journeying with the Felt Sense and the Medicine Wheel to: Mino-Biimaadiiziwiin (The Good Life)

    This online three-part series with Dennis Windego on the felt sense and the medicine wheel will assist helpers and natural helpers to journey beside client’s (or yourself/fellow human beings) trauma, and complex trauma memories to achieve: Mino-Biimaadiiziwiin (The Good Life). Mino-Biimaadiiziwiin is a decolonizing method to address the impacts of colonial trauma with land-based teachings, medicines, spirituality, and ceremonies.

    Presented by The International Focusing Institute

    April 13, 20, and 27, 2023

    This online three-part series with Dennis Windego on the felt sense and the medicine wheel will assist helpers and natural helpers to journey beside client’s (or yourself/fellow human beings) trauma, and complex trauma memories to achieve: Mino-Biimaadiiziwiin (The Good Life). Mino-Biimaadiiziwiin is a decolonizing method to address the impacts of colonial trauma with land-based teachings, medicines, spirituality, and ceremonies.

    Dennis will demonstrate the powerful shift of the felt sense and the medicine wheel through experiential exercises, trauma recovery stories, and triad group practice sessions/discussions.

    Dennis works with and trains therapists who work with Indigenous populations, however, he invites anyone seeking to experience these teachings to register. He will use common language and the exercise instructions will be easy to follow. No experience with Focusing or felt sensing is required. Participants will acquire tools and build sacred bundles to assist Indigenous populations and their allies for truth and reconciliation.

    You do not have to be a professional to experience this powerful way of being. As our Elders have communicated since time immemorial, “We are all healers. The healing medicine is inside all of us”.

    This series will introduce:

    - How to build a connected, safe, and sacred ground space to sit beside complex trauma

    - How to introduce land, medicine, water, air, rock, and indigenous teachings in natural healing

    - How to recognize the presence of trauma through the body, speechlessness, dissociation, and fear paralysis, and overwhelming responses; how to apply the medicine wheel in assessments

    - How to recognize and work with Intergenerational impacts of abandonment, rejection, and neglect

    - How to take care of self and importance of healing and development as a helper

    The three sessions will build upon each other; therefore, if any session is missed it is important to view the recording before the next session. Recordings and other material presented during the workshop will be made available to all registrants after each session (within 3-6 hours after the sessions conclude, except in the case of technical difficulty). Breakout rooms in triads are not recorded.

    Dennis Windego, MSW, FOT, is from the traditional lands of the Anishinabeg community of Nigigoonsiminikaaning First Nation in northwestern Ontario. His Anishinabeg name is Zoongwebines, and he is a member of the Lynx clan. Dennis follows the teachings of his late father which guides his decolonizing approach to mental health, addictions, grief, and healing trauma.

    Dennis develops and facilitates community-centered, land-based, culturally relevant FOT programs. He is a Focusing Coordinator with The International Focusing Institute in New York, and a Focusing-Oriented Therapist (FOT). As a child, he was forcefully removed from his ancestral lands and sent to St. Margaret’s Indian Residential School in Fort Francis, Ontario. Through his personal healing journey, he lives the natural felt sense wisdom of his late mother’s words, “don’t forget who you are and where you come from”.

    April 13, 20, and 27, 2023 at 8:00am - 11:00am

    For each body part, we study anatomy and body mechanics, we explore its movement somatically, and we allow its wisdom to express through drawing, creative writing, and dance.

    Presented by Tamalpa Institute

    Each part of our bodies is unique: each has developed specific functions, moves in particular ways, and has its own stories to tell and dances to dance. In this series, we focus on a new area of the body each week. For each body part, we study anatomy and body mechanics, we explore its movement somatically, and we allow its wisdom to express through drawing, creative writing, and dance. By exploring our anatomy experientially and artistically, we connect more deeply with our bodies, creativity, and lived experience.

    Learning objectives for this series:

    1. Identify and embody various parts of the body through experiential anatomy

    2. Use the Tamalpa Life/Art Process to make connections between artmaking and lived experiences.

    3. Draw on methods of somatic and expressive arts pedagogy as applied to health, embodiment, and creativity.

    No art or dance experience needed.

    To get the most out of this online class, please prepare a comfortable space to move in with access to your online device. Also, have art supplies ready at hand for the drawing activity and paper and pen for journaling and creative writing exercises.

    Please note: Tamalpa does not record nor permit the recording of any classes or workshops due to the sensitive and sometimes vulnerable nature of the work, and to protect student privacy.

    • Highlight the importance of and processes involved in implementation science 
    • Describe the clinic system where this study took place 
    • Describe the patients served (primarily chronic pain with co-occurring trauma) 
    • Describe the MABT approach 
    • Describe the implementation results 
    • Discuss the clinical implications and next steps

    Participants will Learn:

    • Define the key components of implementation science (e.g. appropriateness, adoption) 
    • Identify strategies to enhance implementation 
    • Describe response to MABT implementation in clinical care for chronic pain

      How can we live our lives with more creativity? How can we make art with more meaning?

      Presented by Tamalpa Institute

      In the Tamalpa Life/Art Process, movement and life are intertwined. Our bodies communicate our life experiences through movement, and this movement has the potential to connect us with the creative forces within. It can also open us up to new ways of expressing what lives inside of us.In this workshop, we will begin with a dive into the internal landscape of the sensorial body. The dances that arise from these movements will be further explored using drawing and creative writing, enlivening the conversation between body and imagination. This process will create the opportunity for you to make meaning from movement, and to uncover connections between your dances and your life experiences.

      Join Dr. Rosario Sammartino for a journey of creative exploration and self-discovery. No previous art experience is necessary.

      Rosario Sammartino, Ph.D., RSME, RSMT, is a leading therapist and educator in the intersecting fields of expressive arts, somatics and depth psychology. With over twenty years of experience, her work explores the relationship between body, emotion and imagination. Rosario is a core faculty member of Tamalpa Institute, the internationally recognized training center for movement-based expressive arts therapy, where she trains an international student body. She is an adjunct professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS); as well as the founder of Anthropos Institute, an art and self-development Center located in Buenos Aires, where she is originally from. Rosario maintains a private practice and leads numerous lectures & workshops nationally and internationally. She has taken her work to healing and educational centers, bringing innovative models for health and embodied creativity to diverse populations. www.rosariosammartino.com

      A revolution, personal or cultural, is the turnaround of a predominant way to improve a situation or better oneself. Currently, the rise of affectivism—the integrative power of our body’s emotions, feelings, motivations, moods, and affective processes—has ushered in a new era of advances. For somatic psychotherapy in the United States, this means an insistence on a more inclusive somatics that is radically open to change.

      A Workshop for Therapists and Helping Professionals

      with Bret Lyon PhD, SEP & Sheila Rubin LMFT, RDT/BCT

      Online using Zoom – Live and Recorded

      2 Fridays and Saturdays: May 19, 20, 26, 27, 2023

      10am–1:30 pm Pacific Time

      $395 full price / $375 with full payment by April 7, 2023/ Special price for interns

      Emotions are designed to run through our bodies and complete in an action. Every emotion has an action tendency. The action tendency of shame is to hide, vanish, disappear. Shame is designed to keep us safe by binding with the other primary emotions, lower their intensity, and keep them from completing in an action, such as grieving, reaching out, or setting a boundary. When shame binds with anger, fear, joy, curiosity, or grief, those emotions cannot finish. We get caught in a maze of feelings, with no end. When someone simply can’t get angry, or can’t finish grieving a loss, or can’t feel joyful, or can’t move forward in life, we know that shame is involved, binding with the other primary emotions in a toxic, endless stew of feelings.

      In this workshop, learn how to help clients untangle shame from the other primary emotions so that they can complete. A client can mourn a loss and move on, or express anger in an appropriate way, study for an exam, complete a project, or simply enjoy life. Learn to explain the shame-fear bind, the shame-grief bind, the shame-anger bind, the shame-joy bind, and the way shame binds with curiosity to keep us stuck. And learn techniques to untangle the binds so the client can live their life in a fuller, more productive, and more joyful way.

      Presented by Tamalpa Institute

      Who are you in this moment of your life? How connected do you feel to yourself, and to the deeper realms of soul? What beneath the surface is calling for your attention, asking to be seen and acknowledged? We will spend this workshop moving, drawing, and writing as we ask these questions, using the expressive arts to hold a metaphorical mirror up to ourselves and our lives.

      Tamalpa Experience introduces an approach that enlivens dialogue between body and imagination, life experiences and art making, creativity and healing.

      Presented by Tamalpa Institute

      Grounded on the Halprin work, the Tamalpa Experience introduces an approach that enlivens dialogue between body and imagination, life experiences and art making, creativity and healing. While on this retreat, you will be introduced to the foundational methods and models of the Tamalpa Life/Art Process.

      Through the use of movement, drawing, poetic writing, improvisational performance and ritual, you will tap into art’s symbolic language to encounter and explore current life themes, generating new resources to apply in your personal and professional life.

      Drawing from Anna Halprin’s Movement Ritual, Natan Daskal will begin each morning with somatic awareness and movement exercises to awaken and tune the physical body. Throughout the day, you will be guided to explore your personal material through a model that interweaves movement/dance, visual art and poetic narrative, opening doorways of insight, creativity and play.

      Daria will introduce Body Part Mapping and the Self Portrait Process, visual and narrative maps that will lead you into the themes, memories and dreams that inform your life. Individual and collective life narratives will provide material to generate encounters and inspire embodied models for change.

      Dohee Lee will draw from her practice in Korean Shamanism and performative ritual by utilizing techniques that connect to voice, body, heartbeat and spirit.

      Over the course of the week, through group interaction and collaboration, we will form a community for healing art and ritual. The workshop will conclude with a Planetary Peace Dance.

      Once you have registered with us, we will confirm your payment and email you a link to the Mt. Madonna website where you can register for housing.

      Mindful Awareness in Body-oriented Therapy (MABT): Level 1 Professional Training 

      In Person 6 -day Intensive 

      Dates: 12 June  – 17 June 2023

      Location: Whidbey Institute, Whidbey Island, WA

      Faculty: Cynthia Price, PhD MA LMT, Carla Wiechman, and Taylor Koval 

      Want to learn how to incorporate interoceptive awareness skills in your practice?  MABT Level 1 training is an evidence-based and trauma-informed approach that teaches therapists and practitioners to facilitate and develop interoceptive awareness in their clients in order to enhance emotion and nervous system regulation, and self-care. The MABT approach includes education, interoceptive awareness training, and mindfulness.  This course involves experiential learning of this approach and is for professionals and graduate students. 


      MABT teaches therapists how to facilitate their clients’ ability to learn and develop interoceptive awareness (awareness of internal body sensations) and related skills for self-care and emotion regulation.  An evidenced-based approach, the focus is on learning to facilitate:  a) increase body awareness, b) access interoceptive awareness through exercises using breath and intention, c) the capacity for sustained attention within specific areas of the body and learn an inquiry process that promotes somatic appraisal, self-awareness and insight, and e)  interoceptive awareness practices that can be integrated into daily life to promote self-care and regulation. This approach is helpful to all, but particularly for those disconnected from their bodies due to stress pain, trauma, or chronic physical and mental health conditions.


      This course is offered by the Center for Mindful Body Awareness.   Classes are small to provide personalized instructional support throughout the week. This course is for any therapist/clinician who is interested in incorporating interoceptive awareness into their practice. The course will take place at the beautiful Whidbey Institute ~ accommodation and meals are included in the price;  food is superb, and meals can be made to address any dietary considerations.  


      The cost of $2500 includes the program, accommodation (double) and meals; single room available for additional fee.  CEs available through APA approved sponsor for licensed mental health therapists and through NCTMB for massage therapists.  Early bird discount if registered by 12/15/22! 


      Presenters: Cynthia Price, PhD MA LMT is the Center Director, and Research Professor at the University of WA,  Cynthia developed the MABT approach as a body-psychotherapist, and has completed numerous studies examining the benefits of MABT in community settings. Carla Wiechman, LMT and Taylor Koval, LMT are experienced body therapists who have worked in MABT research studies.

      Presented by Bret Lyon, PhD, SEP and Sheila Rubin, LMFT, RDT/BCT

      Sat, June 17 & 24, 2023

      10:00 AM -6:00 PM Pacific Time

      Online - Live and recorded, using Zoom

      We all go through it. No one is immune. And nothing produces more universal shame in our society than aging. Whereas many societies have deep respect for people as they age and see a vital role for elders, our society still worships youth.

      In this workshop, we will explore and learn to be more comfortable with our own aging process. And we will explore ways to help clients talk about, explore and heal their own shame around aging.

      We will:

      Discover ways to help clients become aware of the many messages they received and continue to receive about aging and body image from family and society.

      Learn ways to help clients cope with the shame of not being able to do all that they once did.

      Understand counter-shaming techniques to help ourselves and our clients find pride and joy in the new reality-seeing that there are real gains as well as losses in this new stage of life.

      • Work with the shame that can cause and result from sicknesses and injuries.

      • Identify challenges in being looked at as unimportant and "not up to par" by a youth-oriented society and the layers of shame that can occur.

      Discover how to make the necessary adjustments so we can regain access to the life force and creativity that we still have in a grounded and embodied way.

      • Begin to shift and transform cultural stereotypes about aging by finding a reservoir of vitality, inner vision and clear action for the next phase of life, that may be hidden under shame!

      There is no prerequisite for this course.

      Learn effective methods to help clients work through prenatal and perinatal trauma and global high-intensity activation

      When - Online video course

      Location - Online

      Presented by Raja Selvam, PhD

      Author of The Practice of Embodying Emotions

      18 CE credits are available (Provided by Amedco)

      Learn effective methods to help clients work through prenatal and perinatal trauma and global high-intensity activation, utilizing …

      1. the specialized knowledge of the physiology and energy anatomy of prenatal and perinatal trauma and global high-intensity activation,

      2. the principles of physical and energetic regulation, and

      3. the tools of emotional embodiment and interpersonal resonance from Integral Somatic Psychology™ (ISP™) that include the work with archetypes from Jungian psychology as resources to help facilitate emotional processing.

      Register Now - https://integralsomaticpsychology.com/prenatal-perinatal-trauma-video-course/

      Persistent imprints from prenatal and perinatal traumas are often in the form of implicit somatic memories with a tendency towards global high-intensity activation in the central nervous system.

      This can lead to long-term symptoms such as anxiety, migraines, heart dysregulation, allergies, attachment and relational difficulties, and emotional difficulties such as persistent low self-esteem.

      Symptoms of prenatal and perinatal trauma and global high-intensity activation can also be seen in clients whose caregivers had activation from causes such as war; or in clients who did not have adequate interactive regulation from their caregivers early in their lives.

      If unresolved, they often form the template of how we are affected by later traumas and compromise our ability to cope with them.

      The course will cover the following topics:

      Major types of prenatal and perinatal trauma

      Existential terror, fragmentation, rage, and shame

      Physiological and energetic defenses commonly involved

      Global high-intensity of the central nervous system

      How to efficiently work with all of the above by building a greater capacity for a larger range of emotional experiences by using the body as a container

      The science of embodied cognition, emotion, and behavior

      The role of archetypes from Jungian psychology as resources for processing emotions

      Included…

      Lifetime online course access

      Three demonstrations

      We experience universal changes in political, financial and ethical values, due to several worldwide crises coming together. Although we notice positive developments like climate consciousness and political support for freedom and war victims, we also face the destruction of war, social exclusion, poverty and racism.

      Here lies our challenge in bioenergetics: giving voice to the body of people, the body of freedom and the body of the earth, our mother.

      Let’s explore together the voices of our bodies, to listen to each other’s voices, and to raise our voices collectively.

      We have an engaging program and opportunities for networking during the Welcome Cocktail Plenary Sessions, Afternoon Workshops, Exercise Groups, Beach Party & Dancing, Gala Dinner and Membership Meeting.

      Our 2023 program will have an impressive line-up of speakers both from within our global community of Bioenergetic Therapists and beyond and will cover a range of topical issues related to Giving Voice to the Body in Challenging Times.
