- Versatility, Bringing Inner Practice to Outer Expression
EN | 4-day workshop Continuum with Jane Okondo
This workshop offers the exploration of different ways to enter into the practice of Continuum. Through movement and awareness, through sensing and feeling we can dissolve our experience of who we are. Entering into different landscapes of expression allowing a phenomenological emergence of the unknown that we carry back with us into the more everyday sense of being in the world.
In tending to these moments of entering we consciously participate in transition between our localised movement, ie. a specific gesture, and our global connection through movement, ie. the field of connectivity and transpersonal context. In this, we discover our own meanings and expressions of an embodiment.
The focus of learning will continue to deepen our understanding through practices of breath, audible and textual, being in movement, bringing in contact with self through sensing and touch, witnessing and discovering how we allow language to support our inquiry of the unknown becoming known.
What does this workshop focus on?
- Learning through self-inquiry,
- Expanding our capacity of dynamic stillness, potent space, witnessing, being moved
- Moving into the silent level of our being, and how audible breath supports this, dissolve of known structures into a fluid model of coherency,
- Re-emerging from the movement inquiries, taking time for new language and meaning to arise
By focusing on the principles and values of Continuum, the intention of this seventh module is to provide an expansion of how Continuum can support your embodiment of being in practice and of being in the world.
Ausführliche Seminarinformationen
What is Continuum?
Continuum is a somatic approach through which we can inquire and learn to tune into our bodies as living events, as an ongoing orchestration of communication and resonance, as creative intelligence operating in every cell.
We can experience that we are movement and that the movement we are can inform the movement we do. We can also experience direct sensory contact with an all-pervasive regulatory dynamic.
Which background does Continuum have?
Emilie Conrad originated Continuum in the 1960’s and developed it until her passing in 2014.
This program - taught by an international team of 8 experienced teachers - integrates various decades of Continuum material.
All teachers were trained and authorized directly by Emilie Conrad during different periods of its development. They all carry aspects of the history of the work. By exploring this history, core principles of Continuum can be integrated and new impulses for its ongoing development can organically arise.
How is the Continuum Continuing Education structured?
This program - taught by 8 teachers - integrates various decades of Continuum material. All teachers studied with Emilie Conrad who originated Continuum in the 1960’s and developed it until her death in 2014.
Emilie Conrad taught in a constant state of inquiry. While each step embedded and enfolded the previous one, it also meant students entering the work in the 80’s were exposed to different material than students entering it in the 2000’s. This program attempts to bring together various Continuum „periods“ by bringing together teachers who were introduced to the work at different times.
The very nature of Continuum is to witness ourselves as a living process, open to the ongoing evolution of teachings and applications. Even though we follow basic core principles, Continuum remains an ongoing, unfolding inquiry into the mystery of conscious human life. Through the variety of teachers in this program, we hope to encourage students to trust their own inquiry, somatic movement research and to develop their own style.

- to be empathic and relational
- to be clear and decisive
- to orient and adapt

- to self-regulate and harmonize
- to be autonomous and team-minded
- to act from the awareness of dynamic context
- to process and reflect
- to be resilient
Which benefits does the Continuum Training provide?
If you like to become a Continuum teacher, the Continuum Training is necessary, but by itself not sufficient. The process is leaded by the Continuum Teacher Association (CTA). A diverse practice of individual experiences and a qualified mentorship are essential.
