Explore the way our bodies put us in touch with our inner world—the world of feeling and insight.

The Rosen Method is taught experientially. Over our days together you will be held in a community that is practicing attuned, kind touch and listening to one another with our whole body.

Each day, you will experience the joy and ease of a Rosen Method movement class in conjunction with Rosen Movement Intensive training students. Some evenings, you will explore your process working on a creative project.

Rosen Method Bodywork

Rosen Method Bodywork facilitates a greater sense of well-being by connecting patterns of muscle tension and breath to suppressed emotions.  Rosen Method Bodywork uses touch and words to track and respond to subtle shifts in muscles and breath, bringing what has been suppressed into conscious awareness.

You are invited to:

• Experience muscle tension relaxing from the inside out as you master a “touch from the heart” that is gently receptive and responsive rather than manipulative.

• Deepen your understanding of how emotions and beliefs are expressed physically through your anatomy.

• Develop compassion for how your body has helped you cope with stressful situations in your life by bringing loving kindness to difficult sensations and emotional states.

• Cultivate attunement and intuition by listening with your whole body, and learning to use words that bypass the thinking, analyzing mind.

• Experience the joy and ease of a daily Rosen Method Movement class.

• Expand your self-exploration through an evening creative project.

This learning supports all therapeutic modalities, and is appropriate for psychotherapists, bodyworkers, and anyone interested in somatic approaches to personal growth and healing.
