Somatic Acts: Invitations into Embodied Experience

Somatic Act 3e
Touch of ´Somebody Else´s Shoes

Allow for at least 30 minutes. You will need a pair of ´Somebody Else´s shoes and a comfortable place to move.
This Somatic Act can be done as a solo, duet or group.

This Somatic Act is a continuation of Somatic Act 3a: Touch of Shoes. After finishing Somatic Act 3a, repeat it again but this time wearing Somebody Else´s shoes. For example, a friend, partner, a sister, and more.

After each pair of shoes is worn, you can also add Somatic Act 3b: Touch of Invisible Shoes and Somatic Act 3c: Touch of Shoes: Character. This can include exploring walking back and forth between wearing both pairs of ´invisible shoes´, noticing the difference in not only sensing the movement of your feet, but how it informs the character of your walk.

Allow time and spaciousness between all steps to support rest when needed.
