A year of weekly online taught sessions, journeying through the exercises, philosophy and principles of Bothmer Movement.
Bothmer Academy is an online weekly taught session of Bothmer Movement. Each session will last approximately 90 mins and will consist of a taught, follow along session, followed by a discussion, a chance to share your own imaginations with the exercise and time for questions and answers. The sessions will be taught in English by Katharine Brayne, Susan Kelly, with other guest teachers appearing from time to time.
It’s open to current Bothmer students to help you commit to a weekly practice and to those interested in Bothmer Movement but not yet able to join a course. Whether you are just starting out or want to deepen your movement skills this is for you. I’m particularly mindful of those who are at home caring for the young/ elderly or infirm, and find it hard to get away to take part in a course. Here is my offering to you to access some Bothmer teaching and feel part of a community.
The aim is to give our global community the means to come together virtually and connect with a regular shared Bothmer Movement practice session. By the end of the course you’ll have a library of taught movement sessions, and discussions on exercises, that you can come back to again and again. This can be a great refresher and personal resource to develop your own movement practice.
The live teaching sessions will take place on a Monday afternoon at 3pm GMT (4pm CET, 5pm EET, 11pm PST, 10am EST). The time is not set in stone, it can be changed and when we get going I’d like to make it as suitable as possible for those attending from different time zones.
The sessions will be recorded live on a Monday. If you can’t make the live session, don’t worry, the recording will be available for you to catch up with.
For all members there is a one off joining fee and an ongoing monthly subscription.
There is a tiered payment system and at check out you decide which one you can afford depending on your circumstances. As this is the first year it’s running I’d like to offer this to you at a discounted rate for anyone registering in December.
Anyone booking between 6th Dec and 31st Dec can enjoy, as a founding member, the course for just £10 joining fee and a reduced monthly subscription of just £16, £24 or £8.
There is a brief outline below. This is a guide only and not set in stone. When we get going I may change things around a little bit. Some sessions we will just focus on one exercise, at other times we will also recap exercises from previous weeks.
