Fundamentals by Susannah
I want to celebrate the members of the Fundamentals Ongoing Group 2008, all of whom, at the last module of our group, wrote and than sang their own songs. Which I still find myself singing, day after day. What a night! If I could play these new songs to you, to show you what its possible for “ordinary’ people to do, you would probably dismiss it, and say that “these people are all singers- they must be.” They were not. But they became so, with a little bit of practice, and within a context of an incredibly loving group. more> |

Requiem for Fundamentals 2008 By The Participants of the Fundmental 2008 Ongoing Group
Thank you Susannah for the bringing together of my song and my movement into alignment; centred and grounded. With the love and gentle permission that the group has offered. I sense the blossoming within all of us; singing our hearts out; literally! In a safe, well held and incredibly loving environment; a school of non-judgemental kind and tender loving dancers embodying the spirit of life. Hilary. ( more> |

After Singing, the Silence by Eline Kieft
Resonance Journey, 2008
Although I love singing, I’m very much aware of restrictions in using my voice to speak. The constraint and pain when I try to say something difficult, is almost as if someone or something literally grabs me by the throat and suffocates me, after which I hardly have a voice or a breath left to tell what’s going on. There is so much harshness after having spoken through this tight throat, forcing out the air through frozen vocal cords. |

Wildlife - Feedback by Monika Ighedosa
Susannah’s course felt refreshingly light, almost tender, without lacking depth and seriousness, helping us find a way into taking responsibility for ourselves and our human family with whom we share this beautiful earth. more> |

Sing for Space By Emma in OzIt amazes me every time when I dance. I dance because I love to move my body in space and time to the music in rhythm, the unknown sounds the unpredictability and endless variation. I love the freedom of the space of a huge room, room to move, express, relate, communicate, endlesss possibilities. That in itself does it for me! more> |

Free at Last by Smita Tomalin
This month's winner of £100 School of Movement Medicine workshop voucher
On Tuesday afternoon 4th November, I was feeling so ill I had to go to bed. My head was pounding, I was sick to my stomach and my legs would no longer support me. I had no idea why I was feeling so poorly and thoughts of all the modern illnesses we have come to dread filled my head as I crept further under my duvet clutching a hot water bottle. more> |

Simon Kidd by Elizabeth Bohun (Simon's sister)
Sylvie Sims (soul mate) Simon Carswell (friend) As you may or may not know, sadly Simon Kidd died recently. This was sudden and unexpected. There will be a funeral in the chapel, the venue and time of which are detailed below, followed by the burial a few minutes walk away in the woodland, We see this as a moment when we will not only lay Simon to rest but also celebrate his life. We hope as many of his friends, ex colleagues and students as possible will be able to come. more> |
