Barefoot Play's Mission
These workshops are given with the intention of supporting the community and assisting people to be independent in their own well-being. By practicing movement, we add another tool to our toolkit of self care. By holding workshops, Barefoot Play's Vision is to: 1. Supporting people's process to actualize living from the heart. 2. Nurture the culture of movement as a resource for the expansion of collective consciousness. 3. Unify people in peace, love, and happiness through a revolution of play.
What is a Barefoot Play Workshop?
A movement workshop that nourishes you, instead of disciplines you...
The Purpose of Movement
Our lives are relationship based. We have a relationship with everything you can see, touch, taste, hear, smell, and imagine. The purpose of movement is to improve these relationships through service. In Barefoot Play workshops, we breakdown our relationships into four categories: 1. Ourselves 2. Others 3. Our environment 4. The Universe/ God/ The Divine From this perspective, we practice the skill of listening to these four categories, to then respond in service to them. From there we can know how to move through life.
Community Testimonials
"Wow there’s so much I could say about Julian’s workshop! This experience was very healing for me on many different levels. I noticed that once I was able to spend sometime in play and exploration, I was much more present and had more capacity for connection with others. I also walked away feeling regulated within my nervous system and connected to myself, nature, and others at a depth that I have not been able to access.
It was also healing for my inner child and adult me, to get to play and keep letting go of any need for perfection. It was very noticeable that Julian carries much wisdom and experience in this practice and I’m genuinely looking forward to the next one."
