Somatics of Sovereignty

8-week introduction course to politicized somatics for QTBIPOC, designed to build the embodiment of self-worth and autonomy as liberatory power.

Grow your capacity for embodied autonomy and internalized self-worth.

What does it mean to embody our autonomy and be sovereign inside of a coercive system that diminishes our agency?

What does it mean to have a felt-sense of internalized intrinsic self-worth inside a system that persists we must prove it and strive for it at all costs?

What does it mean to be in consent with ourselves, to be able to feel an embodied yes, no, maybe, not now, not ever, from within?

Together, we’ll develop an understanding of how inherent interconnectedness shapes the complexity of our sovereignty inside of collective structures of oppression.

Students will learn the core conditions of internalized self-worth, and embodied autonomy and energetic sovereignty through nervous system and subtle body attunement and practice.

Wisdom of the Fox

This season, Somatics of Sovereignty is inspired by the energy of the wild red fox. Endingly curious, highly adaptive and playfully mischievous, foxes have much to teach us about being shaped by our surroundings and intelligibly finding our way through a difficult climate. Foxes know when solitude for self-preservation is necessary, and when partnering or moving into groups are vital. We seek wisdom and courage from the benevolent fox for the embodiment of sovereignty.

Learning Outcomes

  • Develop recognition to existing somatic shapes and patterns around autonomy and self-worth.
  • Learn nervous system dynamics and strategies to develop more resonance and capacity for alchemy and transformation through map-making and somatic practice.

  • Develop and practice energetic sovereignty as highly sensitive and empathic beings.
  • Understand the ways and learn how to navigate trauma that has shaped the embodiment of sovereignty and self-worth.
  • Explore the conditions of sovereignty and self-worth, and learn the iterative practices that create change over time and with repetition.

accessible somatics and gentle facilitation

"denim is a great facilitator who explains somatics in an accessible way and invites us to bring our culture and experiences into the ways we ground ourself. These sessions were so comforting for me thanks to denim's gentle facilitation and the pacing of the sessions."
