NORDIC CONTINUUM | Tone Gilje

Nordic Continuum are excited to announce our Nordic Continuum Programme and Mentoring Opportunity in Scandinavia, beginning early Spring 2020.

We have pleasure in offering six residential retreats in Denmark, Norway and Sweden to support those drawn to deepen this moving practice, and to experience the mysterious and intelligent landscape of the body and its healing effects. These retreats enable us to spend extended periods of time in silent inquiry, where we can deepen and thus move beyond our usual habits and patterning, including that of time.

Listening to and honoring our own impulses, discovering our own rhythms, as opposed to being bound by our daily routines and patterning, we can begin to explore what is beyond the constraints of time.

The use of breath, sound, subtly dynamic movement stimulation, and a receptive, sensory state of attention, allows us to notice movement impulses that arise from within. By consciously allowing these movements, we support complex, self-regulatory processes that are often accompanied by mental and emotional clarity, a sense of nourishment, connection and safety often described as "coming home". We shift our conventional, rational orientation from linear thinking to a more multi-directional embodied state of body-mind thinking, that can feel pleasurable and connect us to more wholeness and wisdom.

Continuum can support our ability:

to be empathic and relational
to be clear and decisive 
to awaken creativity, innovation and play
to be sensual and receptive
to be vital and persevering  
to self-regulate and realign 
to be autonomous and socially aware 
to process and reflect  
to be open and resilient

3. RETREAT

CELL LIFE AND VITALITY

January 25 to 31 2021 in Norway Jeanne and Ameyo

Inquiring into our vitality, we enter into a deep sensory exploration of our cellular make-up. We sense into how this is all connected, how each and every cell exists in its own right yet is deeply connected and woven into the fabric of life. We fill ourselves with the delight of the life force that we are part of.

4. RETREAT

THE SONG OF THE HEART

June 28 to July 3, 2021 Sweden, Tone and Jeanne

Here we explore the resonance and rhythm of the heart, the beat of its inner song to the outside world, and the call of the heart to connect. We listen, sense, feel, move and express the song of the heart beyond our cultural definitions and open into Essence.

5. RETREAT

HEAD TO TAIL

January 24 to 30, 2022 Denmark, Ameyo and Tone

Tracing the River of Life that flows through us, we notice and reflect on the shape of this inner tide of fluid as it undulates through our mid-line and our spine. We listen to the ebb and flow of the spinal fluid as it encompasses, and offers forth, the creative power of our life energy.

6. RETREAT

THE FUTURE BODY

June 27 to July 3 2022, Norway, Ameyo, Tone and Jeanne

What is the body capable of? What is the potential if not trapped in and defined by our Cultural Anatomy? As all living beings, we all carry the seed of our emerging future. As we open ourselves into remembering our fluid origins and reconnect to the ancient river that flows through all life, we can open ourselves with intent and awareness to participate more freely in our daily life.

Wish to become a Continuum teacher?

If you are interested in teaching Continuum in the future, these retreats will provide some of the experience to support you in this process.

Continuum teachers from all over the world came together in 2014 to create a new Continuum Teachers Association (CTA), which will accept new teachers. Our program is designed in alignment with CTA guidelines. Our teacher training will also include further group and individual mentoring sessions, online or in person. For either please reach out to Ameyo, Jeanne or Tone by using the contact information provided below.
