About the Warm Form Workshop:
This day-long qigong workshop is designed for the conditions of the moment: the richness of place in Unity Park in Western Massachusetts, Nipmuck and Pocumtuc lands. 

Through qigong exercises, sections from Wild Goose sets, and qigong meditation, we will focus on nourishment for the transition from the fecund fullness of Late Summer to the breathing clarity of Fall. Movement and reflection can support this unique pivot, and as we practice together, we can utilize the specificity and potency of qigong forms to enrich the container of our embodied being, the spacious movement within, and the growing energetic field amongst us over the course of the day. 

Wild Goose Qigong (Dayan) is a Taoist/Buddhist alchemical movement and life force practice that guides people to experience the inheritance of their self-healing. Wild Goose is both calming and energizing. Through practicing with moving, attending, and breathing, we harmonize the body-being with the dynamic patterns of the environment and cosmos. 

Qigong is for everyone; movements can be modified for all body types, the weather and atmosphere of the moment, and people’s lives.

About Margit:
Margit Galanter is a dance poet and cultural instigator who shares through the vivid grove — a live art school for moving, learning, collective liberatory practices, and creative evolution. Through long-term research-creation, collective intercultural gatherings, 1:1 sessions, and practice itself, shx shares a vision of vibrancy for the individual and collective body. margit is currently living on Montauk lands.

Margit’s syncretic movement approach is based on decades of practice in movement/art lineages. A life of study in Taoist Healing Arts/Wild Goose Qigong, Suprapto Suryodarmo’s Amerta Movement, Lisa Nelson’s Tuning Scores, embodied practices, and creative inquiry constitute the trees in the grove; they provide both rooted access to fertile sources and nourish the flowering canopy of art creation. www.vividgrove.org

Location:
Unity Park is located in Peskeompskut (Great/Turners Falls) on the Connecticut River. Bring layers for sun and wind. There are picnic benches and plenty of trees for shade. There is a porta potty onsite. No drinking fountains, but we'll bring a couple big jugs for water refills! Mohawk Grill Palestinian Food Truck is super close for those who need to buy lunch (downtown Great Falls is also walking distance).

In the case of inclement weather, we’ll meet indoors nearby. We will send an update the day before.
