Technical Training on Somatic Education 2008 - Brazil
MOVIMENTO has been inspired by the principle of self-knowledge and its impact on the quality of a professional practice. In the case where a professional chooses to develop their capacity to feel and experience, they become more able to intervene in a precise, effective and creative way with their clientele. The Technical Training on Somatic Education was conceived to enrich the field of tools within the professions of health, education, and arts. As well as bringing a rejuvenation in personal development. On the other hand, the technical skills learned in the formation offers a support in the prevention and the recuperation of current problems connected to: tendonitis, arthritis, hernias, inadequate posture, chronic fatigue, vocal problems, etc.
To health professionals
The Technical Training on Somatic Education focuses on enhancing the person’s auto regulation mechanisms. For the health professional, it is important to add an educational facet to their practice in the sense that it maximizes the client’s capacity to take charge in order to heal.
To educators, artists and other professionals
The Technical Training on Somatic Education equally contributes to the development of expression. The body becomes more available, versatile and able to confront the work requirements where performance is important and the training is intense: Physical education, Pilates, yoga, sports, dance, voice and music.
