Core Energetics is a form of somatic psychology that utilizes body-and-spirit dialogue to treat everything from PTSD to addiction, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Activities include group movement, expressive work, and social dynamics to promote emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual growth.
Green Space Studios will offer a Somatic Healing Group based on Core Energetics on every other Tuesday from Feb. 13 to June 18.
The facilitator of these bi-weekly sessions is Valerie Green, a Certified Practitioner in Core Energetics and Body/Mind Fitness who also founded and runs Green Space. She favors environments where participants connect to each other, freely express their feelings, and take risks.
The price is $300 for the 10 sessions, which run from 7 pm to 9 pm. The scheduled dates are Feb. 13, Feb. 27, March 12, March 26, April 9, April 23, May 7, May 21, June 4, and June 18 at Green Space, which is located at 37-24 24th St.
A performer since her childhood in Ohio, Green moved to New York City in 1995. She founded her own company, Dance Entropy, in 1998, and established Green Space as its headquarters. While creating choreography, performing, and presenting, she also teaches via her Dance Your Frame process. She’s developed the Skimming the Surface and Movement Playground workshops as well as her Core Energetics program.
