AEROSHA: Movement Prologues

AEROSHA: Movement Prologue beckons you into a transformative artistic journey where, cloaked in our signature darkened sanctuary and immersive sound, your body awakens to dormant sensual intelligence and your own unique embodied vocabulary.

This introductory event welcomes participants of all backgrounds, bodies, identities, and experience levels to explore movement as artistic liberation.

Through carefully crafted verbal guidance, you'll be led through a progressive voyage of sensory awareness—first thawing rigid patterns held in your physical form, then melting into motion with increasing fluidity, imagination, and intuition.

This floor-based, eyes-closed experience creates a rare opportunity to reconnect with your body's natural expressiveness without the pressure of performance or the constraints of technique. As layers of self-consciousness dissolve in the darkness, many participants report a surprising discovery: the body holds wisdom that the mind has neglected.

Your journey unfolds through a curated soundscape designed to evoke emotional landscapes to explore. Each sonic element serves as both invitation and permission to explore movement qualities rarely expressed in everyday life—from glacial slowness to primal intensity, from structured form to liquid improvisation.

Participants frequently describe unexpected emotional release, profound moments of self-recognition, and a surprising reclamation of pleasure in their right-now body. Many discover that this seemingly simple exploration reverberates far beyond the AEROSHA event, influencing how they navigate everyday life with heightened sensory awareness and creative confidence.

Our Movement Prologue serves as both a complete artistic event and the gateway to deeper AEROSHA movement and mentorship experiences. 

Prepare to leave with renewed body awareness, creative inspiration, and a profound sense of connection to your authentic sensual voice that extends far beyond the studio walls.

Prologue PREREQUISITES

Our AEROSHA: Movement Prologue Experience welcomes all adult participants regardless of background or physical ability. This experience is designed to meet each participant exactly where they are, honoring all bodies, identities, abilities, and comfort levels. The only true prerequisite is curiosity about your own creative expression and willingness to respect our shared sacred space.

NOTE: Participants may attend Prologue Experiences as many times as inspired, even those who are highly familiar with Aerosha movement will find this experience nurturing and fitting for your own unique language to be deeply satisfied.

NOTE: Photo, video, audio, are never permitted in any Aerosha space to protect privacy of the participants and sanctity of the space. Rachael is available to book private photo sessions, space is limited, please inquire via email at rachael@aerosha.com.

WHAT TO BRING

• Optional Yoga mat (for comfort and defining personal space, we do provide our signature mat for you so this would be in addition to that, as desired)
• Small blanket or throw (for added warmth and comfort during closing integration and/or as a textural movement partner)
• Water bottle (optional if you want it near you—we provide drinking water as needed)
• Comfortable layers of clothing (see "What to Wear" for details)

All other elements of the experience will be provided in our carefully curated environment. If you have special requests or concerns, please reach out to AeroshaHQ@gmail.com anytime.

WHAT TO WEAR

The Aerosha space is intentionally darkened, freeing you from visual self-consciousness. There is no "correct" attire—only what allows you to move authentically. Please note that while we celebrate creative expression, all participants remain clothed throughout the experience.

Clothing should ideally allow free movement while providing expression, comfort, and coziness. 

We recommend:

• Layers that can be adjusted as your body temperature changes
• Soft, stretchy fabrics that allow full range of motion
• Clothing that makes you feel both comfortable and expressive
• Socks and legwear are welcome and encouraged for warmth and self-expression (sliding)

For your comfort:

• Kneepads are available for take-home purchase.
• Clean “used” kneepads are available for your use.
