Learn to empathetically read your students and guide their movement by inviting authentic expression. Do you feel capable of empathetically reading your students' dance? Inviting them to authentic self-expression without seeming like you're correcting their incorrect dancing? Perhaps you don't feel capable of effectively reading your students' movement because you're still integrating the movements and experiences into your own individual process. Your identity as a facilitator depends on your personal evolution. It takes many years and hours of practice facilitating groups to become capable of consistent reading, Even as a seasoned facilitator, but especially for newer facilitators. In this course, I will offer tools and elements of empathic observation so you can accelerate this process and identify your students' expressive tendencies without seeming like you're correcting them, but rather inviting them to poetic, existential expression based on affection and experiential integration. I will share with you what I have developed on this topic based on my 40 years of facilitation experience, as well as research into the movements of sports and different dance modalities and body therapies such as Bioenergetics and Reichian, and above all, my direct experience as a student of Rolando Toro Araneda. For decades, I observed him providing readings and movement guidance, and it is from this direct experience with the creator of biodanza that I will convey the foundations of this course. The goal is to expand the ability to follow the progress of your students in weekly classes and in-depth workshops. By providing a precise and affective reading of movement and guiding its integration, the facilitator becomes better able to generate experiences with greater precision and confidence.
