Core Strokes, a synthesis of modern psychotherapeutic and bodymind methods

The Core Strokes method was developed by Dirk Marivoet after 30 years of practice and teaching in the fields of body psychotherapy, somatic psychology and bodywork.

This method combines the theoretical and practical aspects of the following approaches : • Postural Integration, Energetic Integration and Pelvic-Heart Integration, developed by

Jack W. Painter, PhD • Core Energetics, developed by John C. Pierrakos, MD • Pesso-Boyden System Psychomotor, developed by Albert Pesso and Diane Boyden-Pesso). • Other approaches and systems such as those of William Reich, Carl Jung, Alexander Lowen,

Eric Berne ...

Touch and be touched: learn to live with an open and avail-able heart !

The originality and effectiveness of the Core Strokes method lies in its ability to integrate techniques of bodywork and verbal expression which will "touch" us deep within, in our tissues but also in our emotions, our feelings. wounds, our basic human needs, our soul.

By participating in this training, you will be able to discover how much the Rblows”, the

Rspikes” that we receive can hurt us, close us, and how much the Rcaresses”, the Rstrokes” can bring us support, recognition, and allow us to open our heart, our « Core ». You will learn to express your needs and your emotions, to release your tensions, to let go, to listen and to see differently, to give and to receive.

During this training, others will be your mirrors, stimulating you, but also supporting you in what needs to be healed as well as what needs to be revealed. On a personal level, this trai-ning will be an opportunity to overcome your injuries and learn to live differently, with an open and available heart. Professionally, she will bring you a new and effective approach, posture and tools in your work with your clients.Q
