AQUATERNATIVES® foundation
12-16 September 2010 (5-day class)

This course is the ideal introductory for everybody who has not yet done any classes in aquatic bodywork but like to get an idea about different approaches to the work. AQUATERNATIVES® foundation is an introduction to or refinement of 4 approaches to aquatic bodywork. It is taught from the perspective of principles of the work and exercises to experience and learn those principles in the body rather than learning choreography.

AQUATERNATIVES® foundation is the first class in the AQUATHERICS® program. It lays the groundwork by beginning with safe productive alignment and movement of ones own body in water. Next we address the safety and alignment of the receiver while maintaining a neutral connection. Continuing the connection, we learn to move effectively from a still base, a traveling base, utilize adaptive tools, and finally continue our awareness and flow under the water with nose clips. We also learn the continuity and integration of a session. From this strong beginning, one can effectively continue with any direction of aquatic bodywork. For any anyone already pursuing aquatic bodywork at any level, foundation with more clarity, safety, depth and creativity adds to their work.
