As a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist, Feldenkrais® and Body-Mind Centering® Teacher, Sonja is well versed to guide you with great intuition through the process of reclaiming your wholeness in the embrace of another.

Transformation Tango allows for profound healing in all aspects of our life and relationships.
Each class is suited to the level of the students and can be used for improving relationship within the dance as in life.
We will begin with exploring principles of Yoga and the somatic methods of Feldenkrais and Body-Mind Centering to find the ease that underlies transformation.

Then, by moving very slowly in comfortable positions and in a close Tango embrace, we will learn:

  • To access the stillness within, leading to a better ability to listen and attend to our own and partner's needs in a close Tango.
  • To explore and express the physicality of trust in order to acquire the best possible connection in the dance and daily life.
  • To add a different level of awareness and effortlessness to your dance transforming tension, fear and doubt into greater ease and freedom of movement while preventing injuries.
  • To improve balance and groundedness every second of the dance for greater safety and technical ability in various rhythms and speed.
