The study hours of 3D massage, immersion technique, and rotational forces in water, as well as ‘real-time’ response within interactivity…, go hand in hand with the exploration of movements, stretches to maintain a more refined presence throughout the learning day.

The impact of energetic stimulations brings new experiences on a physical level, and promotes also nervous and neuronal balance, essential for assimilating the aquatic sessions.

In Waterness™ courses, technical teaching with somatic work (through contact, free and guided movement) completes this readability between the qualities of the water element and the properties of the earth, with a playful approach that favors the integration of learning contents. We return to the water with more clarity about ourselves, the relationship between gravity and suspension.

EARTH ELEMENT:

• Free and guided movement.
• Somatic practice spaces dedicated to the exploration of improvisation and and individual and group research.
• Somatic work on land to transition working in the water.

WATER ELEMENT:

• Synchronisation of breathing and movement to coordinate immersion.
• Study of expansion and compression movements of the surface, underwater work and inversions, movements with changes of direction, centripetal and centrifugal movements.
• Practice of massage, deep stretching, release points and mobilisation with a 360° spherical approach.
• Work on the forces at play to apply acceleration and deceleration.
• Creating a safe position for the receiver and a healthy posture for the giver.
• Water creates a space for observing and facilitating spontaneous movements and enhances the interaction between the giver and the receiver as playmates.
