The Awareness Training was created based on the language of movement in the Laban Bartenieff Movement System (LBMS), dance and movement therapy, and BodyMind Dancing. 5 sessions make up a coherent cycle of classes held on weekends. This is an original program led for 10 years by Agnieszka Sokołowska (therapist, supervisor in dance and movement with additional specialization in movement analysis – Laban International Movement Studies certificate – and Body Mind Dancing Teacher).

Assisting and supporting the shared space with mindful presence from the level of body, heart, and mind will be one of the Trainers of the language of movement and conscious work with the body, who has completed the Year Course “Conscious Body, Language of Movement.”

The benefits of participating in the training include experiencing key elements of the language of movement, the opportunity to touch on life themes (relationships, emotions, beliefs), and embracing them with the healing power of work through the body.

The program has a coherent logic. Between meetings, self-work (movement and cognitive) is planned.

🌿 The training consists of modules:
------------------------------
5-6.10.24 Dwelling in the body, or an introduction to the language of movement and connection with the psyche.

12-13.04.25 Awareness of movement leading to change.

🌿 LEADER
------------------------------
Aga Sokołowska – I obtained the highest title awarded by ISMETA – Master Somatic Movement Educator & Therapist. I am also a supervisor of dance and movement psychotherapy and a teacher of the language of the body, and by education, I am a psychologist. I completed certification training at the Laban Bartenieff Institute of Movement Studies and the Polish Institute of Dance and Movement Therapy. I teach the language of movement and together with Karen Studd (author of the book “EveryBody is a Body”) I lead a year-long course “Conscious Body, Language of Movement” – a program that helps recognize what the body says and transform the patterns stored in it. For 20 years, I have worked as a therapist, mainly with individuals who have experienced various forms of violence, suffered psychosomatic illnesses, or needed to deepen the relationship between body and mind. For several years, I have supervised the work of therapists from various schools who work through the body. With experience leading thousands of hours of training and therapeutic sessions, I combined the language of movement with therapeutic aspects of body work and named what I do, Dancing Life. I work with a passion for authenticity that movement and contact with another person provide. I help in dancing out stories trapped in the body – in returning to the feeling of life in its entirety: with emotions, body, and thoughts. In building relationships with oneself and others. Being in contact, without cutting off, with the tender strength of presence. [www.agasokolowska.com](https://www.agasokolowska.com)
