dancing under the peel of a female-body
A journey to explore the singularity of the wild, worshiping nature as a ritualistic territory to reconnect with inherent corporeal wisdom.
an experimental practice for women, that understands dance and movement as a somatic narrative, invoking a body that creates positive ruptures, visits new subjectivities, which affects and is affected by sensibilities that encourage new ways of living.
a revolution conceived by moving…
investigating movement as a tool to decolonize a patriarchal recipient-body. excessively domesticated, covered in pasteurized varnish, plasticized senses, silenced instincts, cautious gestures. numbed, anesthetized.
sign by sign, as weapons that despise the poverty of those resigned ones, that dream and insurrect tools to destabilize the ordinary. A courageous dance that heals inflicted wounds into scars for strong skins, overcoming injuries to flesh and bones.
a hollow body that drifts contours and doesn’t stop oscillating – escaping matter, automatism, ideologies. a fertile body-vessel that insists in housing the drive to visit new and unique territories.
DanzaMedicina operates in a dozen countries, with more than 600 students in retreats and workshops and another 5 thousand participants in virtual courses. For information about agenda and upcoming events CLICK HERE
It was a deep process of surrendering and connecting with myself - in which I was guided throughout my shadows, traumas, fears, my pain and vulnerabilities; into a process of rebirth, acceptance and self love - It just changed my life forever and I thank Morena from all my heart!

My experience with DanzaMedicina was so wonderful that I cannot even express. I knew the emotional traumas I carried with me throughout life, but certainly I did not think they were still so present . As we started working on the workshops of DanzaMedicina we subtly started gliding towards unimaginable places of our lives, where there was still unresolved childhood pain that was held within for more than 60 years.

I was able to release tension, sadness, guilt and fear through the practices we did together. I was able to see the similarities we share as women, the battle we fight separately when we should and could be doing it together. I felt love, support and strength.

What will you tell your girl when she menstruates for the first time? In many traditions, the menarche is considered a rite of passage, the moment when a girl becomes a woman. This book, "The girl who became Moon", comes to bring us ancient wisdom - ancient memories, forgotten and silenced for so long - of a time when we felt the honor, power and pride of inhabiting a female body.
Also available in Spanish, Portuguese and Basque language.
![[Port👇🏽] By pulling the red thread of ancestry, we encounter women who are corporeally immaterial, who become part of this circle, closing the circuit of healing: those who dance with us and communicate through fear, through the shiver down the spi](https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/562a01bae4b05e6cc1f31568/1713617992362-I14QKYLG6606LZ4IY4LQ/image-asset.jpeg)
