I just, yesterday I was in an Uber and had a conversation with the driver and he asked, what do you do?

And I told him, how did you get to work with the body?

And I said, because I distrust this.

And in many ways, it was this instinct that I can't be trusted anymore.

And that sensation, that internal lie, that deep, deep lie beyond, underneath all the lies, the lie that we tell ourselves, the words in our head, they're rarely truth.

Maybe they can't even be truth because words cannot be that truth, but they're not even simulations of truth.

They're a simulacrum.

They're removed from reality.

They're not containers.

They're maybe pointers that by now are pointing at nothing.

The body lies a lot less.

It's very honest.

When I move or when I move with someone, I know the truth.

Or when we talk, who knows?

It feels like you have an incredibly holistic understanding of the body, of the body as a doorway to explore trapped emotions, to explore self-expression.

And you have explored many different formats and modalities to add something.

They all add something.

And

it's much a deeper understanding than the conventional western understanding of exercise and movement and the way that we kind of live our life very much so identified with our thoughts moving through the world and view movement as something that we should do for our health maybe an hour a day you invite it as a living practice in a much deeper context so

we'll bring this down to the individual and to the practical, but there is this understanding of exercise as a form of movement.
