A weekly gathering of moving, reading, and creative exploration our academic texts, poetry, essays and more alongside community.
About this Event

Every Monday, Movement Philosophy will gather together to read writings (articles, poems, songs, essays, & more) and explore them through movement, the arts, and community. In an attempt to take the academy outside of the institutional walls, in an attempt to tap into the wisdom innate within our bodies, in an attempt to trust the wisdom of the land, how might we be in relationship to the text alongside one another?
Your favorite elements of a college lecture (the discussion), meets embodiment explorations, meets community engagement, meets reading circle adjacent!
We will gather for a small meditation and check-in, followed by a quick guided movement, reading of our texts together, discussion, followed by more movement, creative exploration (writing/drawing/making of any kind), before we close out with a final discussion time.
Sliding scale of $5-25.
Space is limited to 8, so RSVP!
RSVP is also necessary to send out arrival instructions, what we will be reading, and other important information prior to the workshop.
This is for all people wanting to explore embodiment, somatics, writings, world building/dreaming alongside others in community. All bodies, physical abilities**, and experiences to writing, academic texts, somatics, the arts, and more are welcomed.
Movement Philosophy is led and organized by Madison Mae Parker (MFA, RSME/T).
Madison Mae Parker is a queer, white, neurodivergent ritual artist and witch. Parker holds an MFA from the School of the Art Institute and is a registered somatic movement educator through ISMETA by way of the Tamalpa Institute (founded by Anna Halprin). They deeply believe our bodies are our first source of wisdom, our way to build another world.
