You only have one life.
Let it be embodied.

A welcoming community of connection, learning & exploration

1. In our first class we will explore the role of the pelvic floor, some misinformation about it and ways you can support yours so that it can best support you. We will introduce some simple yet effective ways of initiating breath into the body that can be used every day in any situation.
2. During our second session, we will discover the body’s energy and how to bring it to rest in the pelvic bowl. We will explore receptivity and where resilience and resourcefulness live in the body.
3. The third class will offer ways of shifting the centre of our awareness from the busy and isolated confines of the head and down into the deep calm and intelligence of the body. The series will end with a deeply restful experience of the whole body releasing to the breath.

This virtual workshop, led by TEPP co-director Allyson Woodrooffe, will be limited to 8 participants to allow for rich and intimate conversation. Spread over three one-hour sessions, this workshop is not a typical pre-natal class!

The workshop runs over three weeks: October 6, 13 & 20 from 10 – 11:15 am ET (North American ET!) Your sign up fee covers all three sessions.

This retreat is a five-day immersion in the embodiment practices of Philip Shepherd, run by Philip and Allyson Woodrooffe.

The goal of the retreat is to provide participants with the strategies, skills and insights to land in the wholeness of their being and experience its ease, richness and grace. The aim is to have fun along the way. Some experience with The Embodied Present Process is an asset (whether through an online course or an in-person workshop), but is not a prerequisite.

The retreat takes place on the beautiful grounds of The Well of Mercy, just over an hour north of Charlotte, NC.

Included in the retreat price is 5 nights private accommodation and all meals. Due to Covid protocols, all accommodation is private. But if you are coming with a partner or person in your bubble and would like to share a room, please sign up and let us know and we will issue a refund for shared accommodation. Meals are lovingly prepared and nutritionally balanced.
