we will cover
Perceptual skills
The field is highly complex. We will learn to perceive the body on multiple levels of organization -- physical, fluids and energetic. In turn, these skills will become foundationsfor therapeutic use. We will familiarize ourselves with mid-tide, fulcrums, primal orientation, embryological forces and living anatomy.
​
Contact skills
To facilitate a session, we position ourselves in relationto a patient. This position, although neutral, is enhanced by the ability to be present and is applied through perceptual skills andthrough touch. In order to listen to subtle motions and information contain within the body mind, we need to develop presence and body awareness. Knowledge of physiology and anatomy will enhance your awareness. Learning how to listen with your hands while creating a safe touch enhancesthe relationship with physiology.
​
Relational field
​
This work is relational in essence and therefore developing the presence we bring into the treatment space is of the utmost importance. We will learn the steps required todeepenour presence, hold space, to listen and to be. 99% of the work happens through the unseen and the unknown. Yourability to remain present while in the unknown is the essence of this work.
​
Therapeutic skills
​
Being a compassionate skilled listener is something we can all develop. We will explorehow to respond to the variety of situations arising in aclinical setting, from relational issues betweentherapistandpatient to handling trauma release.
Bali
This class will be held in Ubud, Bali, where I've spent 12 years of my life. This land is sacred to me. Ithas taught me more than I could ever imagine and it is a blessing to be held by Bali during our healing journey. We have 6 days of class and 1 day in the middle of the retreat to rest & integrate.
​
You can easily find accommodation around Penestanan, where the retreat will be held. A vegan lunch will be provided, prepared by chef Made of Moksa restaurant.
The class will be held in a brand new nature shala built at the foot of Melkevoll glacier. Accommodation will be in beautifully designed, high standard wood cabins, shared by 3 people. Everyone has a private room in a shared cabin.
​
The cabins have fully equipped kitchens and living rooms, with shower and toilet, fireplace and an outdoor terrace with stunning mountain views over the glaciers and valley. There is easy access to many mountain trekking paths from the camp site, which also has a sauna and a cold river for the courageous ones! The retreat includes nurturing homemade meals prepared by chef Frank. A healthy vegetarian/vegan lunch and dinner will be serve during the
7-day class. 8 nights of accommodation are included, with 6 full days of training and 1 free day of trekking, rest or group practice. Please note that breakfast is not included.
Our body is our own inner cosmos where magnificent forces abound. We are born out of fluids, and all come from the ocean. All the structures in your body came from one drop of fluid. How to learn about the human body, by the body itself. How to listen to it's millions of years of evolution. The body speaks through anatomy, through motions and sensations. How to find the inner space within from which we can listen to a creative intelligence far beyond our mind, while applying awareness as healing presence. ​
Our objective is to develop our perception and sensitivity towards these subtle forces and comprehend the principles of healing at work and how it is enhanced by our inner stillness, perceptions and heart presence.

what is biodynamic craniosacral therapy
It is an approach to healing that acknowledges and accesses the deepest healing foundations of the human system. Anchored in the physical body, we get in touch with an energetic essence called “the breath of life” generating tide-like fluid movements that manifest as a biodynamic life force within the human system. This ordering principle of inherent health integrates all cellular and tissue forms and functions and is at work as an “inherent blueprint” from conception until death. The healing potential, and the knowledge of what needs to occur is already enfolded in the condition of the issue and will unfold in its own way.
​
Our objective is to develop our perception and sensitivity towards these subtle forces and comprehend the principles of healing at work and how it is enhanced by our inner stillness, perceptions and heart presence.
Your craniosacral system and central nervous system have a reciprocal influence on all of the other systems of your body, such as the digestive, respiratory, cardiac, lymphatic, systems. The craniosacral system is also important to the development and function of the brain and spinal cord. It is comprised of the membranes and cerebrospinal fluid that surround, protect, nourish and remove waste from your brain and spinal cord. In this work, we get in touch with the embryological forces that shaped and created your body and let themguide us. This ordering principle has created your body from the moment of conception to birth and is constantly at work in creating a state of health. The ability to surrender to these forces and let them re-create the original human blueprint is our only task.

what is it ?
​
Biodynamic Touch is for everyone interested in learning about healing presence, perceiving from the heart, and the power of non-invasive touch.
Module 1 focuses on developing perceptual and relational skills, anchoring your awareness in the biodynamic approach and discovering subtle energetic anatomy and the principles of healing.
Module 2 brings us on a journey through physical anatomy, integrating within ourselves our own inner space through the ventricular space in the brain and the cerebrospinal fluid.
In Module 3, we work more deeply with embryology, venous sinuses and the language of the body, living anatomy and it’s symbolism.
​
These seven day classes start with centering and listening practices intended to create a sacred space for us to explore the dynamics of healing, to deepen into the stillness of presence, and to enter into contact with the body by allowing its inner wisdom to guide us through a treatment.
We will also cover the principles and anatomy of craniosacral therapy such as the fluid tide, diaphragms and membrane, and look at stages of embryology through a combination of theory, practice, group sharing, demonstration and Q&A periods.
The intimate space created within the group is of primary importance.
​
Spaces are limited to 8-12 students and the group field will be shaped by each of us. Feel into your heart if this is the class for you.
​
This course is designed for you to gently immerse yourself in the stillness centered in your heart, and grounded in the mountains of Norway or in the tropical jungles of Bali.
​
I invite you to join us on this inner journey.
