The Thinking Body
This set of seminars is based on a practical exploration and analysis of our intimate organization of perception through
movement, as well as symbolic and verbal expression. A complex offer of settings provide the possibility to gain insight of
what are our choices in movement, organization of space and the way how we relate ourselves and afterwards explore
alternatives. This process offers tools for change and new affective organization in relation to ourselves and others. The
objective is the creation of authentic dialogue, capacity of inner resonance and healthy energy flow.
The settings stimulate playfulness, curiosity and creative exploration and the capacity for change and gives new tools to
professionals that work in the field of psychology, pedagogy and the arts.
The seminars are lectioned by Pia Krämer, movement researcher, dance movement therapist and teacher. Works since
2002 in Espaço do Tempo. Responsible for the community work and since 2013 assistant to artistic direction and project
manager.

Corpo Que Pensa III
(Dates to define)
For the participants that completed CQP I and II.
Psychological conflict is represented in the body by movement pattern with a certain "texture", like move or stand still,
come close or go away, insist or surrender. These behaviors construct our body expression from childhood on. The way
how intersubjectivity shows in movement interactions determines our actions and the regulation of emotions. During the
different phases of the workshop we will try to "filter" the prototypes of interaction in relation to movement, relating to
each other and behavior. Using that information to construct later on models of intervention.
Corpo que Pensa IV:
(Dates to define)
These are regular encounters for participants that completed I;II and III.
The settings will be announced in our website, newsletter and facebook and through personal email.
