Our autonomic nervous system determines our basic perception of and responses to our environment. We can retrain our autonomics; doing so allows us to see the opportunities and resources in any situation. Creativity and compassion can become more available no matter the circumstance.

We will use simple and easily memorable breathing, movement, and awareness exercises to increase our capacity to adapt with grace on all levels: physically, psychologically, and spiritually.

No experience necessary. Buck 301, 5 Tuesday nights, 7-8pm 10/19-11/5. $50. For more information, contact me or call 373-1236

]]>Systema class schedule updates and changeshttp://www.body-knowledge.com/index/2009/7/2/systema-class-schedule-updates-and-changes.htmlDameron2009-07-03T03:50:37ZThis is long overdue; the posted schedule is quite out of date. My apologies to anyone caught in the confusion. The current schedule is now correct. It will apply for the next several weeks. There will be no class from July 15-30, as I will be on vacation; The August schedule will be posted before the end of the month.

Look out for Systema Saturdays, starting in August! These longer classes (3-4 hours) allow some deeper exploration and learning, and are great for getting beginners up to speed quickly, or those traveling from farther away. Dates will be announced shortly.

The monday classes will not be held next week either, as I won't be back 'til tuesday.

The following week is Memorial Day; I'm rescheduling those to Tuesday night, so we don't miss 3 weeks running.

Enjoy the weather!
