How are our bodies influenced and impacted by our Jewish culture, family traditions, and  inherited trauma? What do we carry in our bodies as we move through our communities, from our daily lives to the dance floor? In this session, we will explore the ways that we embody Jewishness and finds areas of celebration and healing. Laura will teach several dance practices that allow deeper mind-body connection and encourage physical release. The workshop will include movement, journaling, and group discussion. Set up a space where you can move without obstruction and wear comfortable exercise clothes.
