SUMMARY:MORNING EXORCISE with Jas Lin + Hearthealer
DESCRIPTION:MORNING as in awakening– to our senses\, our agency\, our infinite possibility.\nEXORCISE as in ritual and practice– for purging the body of internalized scripts and socialized expectations. \nMORNING EXORCISE is an open movement workshop for all levels of experience\, accompanying Jas Lin and Hearthealer’s Prayer Pillow performance for Queer Mvmt Fest. Through qigong breathwork\, movement meditation\, and embodiment tasks\, we exorcise choreographies of the learned body\, shedding ingrained patterns to make space for new ways of moving through\, being with\, and dreaming into. Participants are invited to release any expectation that there is a “proper” way to move or be\, and instead follow feeling\, sensation\, and instinct. Together\, we co-create a sanctuary for experimentation\, mutual presence\, and collective transformation.
