Master Class Overview:

Memories are commonly associated with autobiographical events. However, such remembered stories represent only the tip of the iceberg. Implicit memories held in the body dominate the first preverbal years of life and all traumatic events. Clay Field Therapy offers a unique option to connect with the haptic developmental building blocks that shape the physiological identity in children. The workshop will focus on touch explorations of the implicit memory systems. In the therapeutic environment at the Clay Field these can foster new sensorimotor experiences that enhance self-esteem, empowerment, and restoration of developmental deficits. 

You will have the opportunity to:

• Hear how implicit memories are held in the body
• Explore touch explorations of the implicit memory systems
• Experience Clay Field Therapy
• Learn how sensorimotor experiences can benefit clients. 

Training methods will include:

• Interactive presentations
• Large group discussions
• Practice experiences 
• Reflection opportunities
