Spring Workshop in Solingen Dreams are the language of the body speaking to itself. They arise from our motile anatomy and tell us about shapes and experiences that are seeking to come into existence in the awake world of daily living. Dreams are the motoric cues, the formative urgings, from which we can shape and grow our lives. Using voluntary muscular-cortical effort with dream experiences is a way to address the basic issue of how to grow a personal body from the body we inherit.

Summer Workshop in Berkeley Taking Charge of Your Life The personal power to take charge of our life cannot be found in external images or societal precepts. It is a power that comes from voluntary participation in the shapes of our embodiment. The ability to influence our destiny comes from the deepest source of inner pulsation, our life force. How we encourage or inhibit our innate actions establishes the autonomy to transcend the past and present and orient to the future. When you tap into instinctual life, there is excitement and knowledge, the possibility of personal transformation. In this program participants work intensively with formative methods developed at the Center. Daily sessions include somatic-emotional exercises, didactic presentation, and individual work with Keleman in the group. Formative practice exercises are the heart of the work and teach the voluntary management of behavior. The intent is to support individual identity, deepen somatic process and patterns of feeling, and gain practical skills in working with oneself and others. Stanley Keleman has been practicing and developing somatic therapy for over thirty years and is a pioneer in his study of the body and its connection to the sexual, emotional, psychological and imaginative aspects of human experience. Through his writings and practice, he has developed a methodology and conceptual framework for the life of the body
