Which do you prefer?
Do you, like most of us, choose to align yourself with the world of order? Borders, boundaries, known territory allow us to feel safe and secure; order is aesthetically pleasing, polite, and civilized. Yet, order can turn to rigidity, mindless repetition, and a narrowed view of life.
The world of chaos challenges us.
We are reluctant to seek out that which is unpredictable, unreliable, or confusing. But haven’t you perhaps found that brief periods of chaos allow you to let go, and re-examine your world, your choices, and what you value?
During a TaKeTiNa workshop…
…you can investigate chaos as a healthy and vital ingredient, necessary for learning. Clapping, stepping, and singing simultaneously opens the door into inner knowing. Learning with the whole body, in rhythm, prepares you to experience the friendly and healing aspect of chaos in a nurturing environment.
I did a Taketina workshop with Zorina and Deborah last year. The workshop stretched me musically but was also very moving on a personal level. I thoroughly recommend Taketina for anyone who is interested in exploring their own musicality. I’ll be back again this year.
I like this order and chaos graphic!
