I thoroughly enjoyed the 3 of the 5 classes in the series of 5 Dakini Subtle body trainings with Khandro La leading us in such interesting movements - the depth of which my mind and body could not grasp fully - but it certainly was a sweet taste. I am keen to do more of this somatic expression and release method devised by these Buddhist embodiment postures . I laughed and cried and mostly probably frowned with concentration . Khandro La was such a free and joyful example of the practices. Definitely desire more. 💃🥰

Using the word "somatic" is beautiful here, Shona. I believe the somatic experiences we Westerners perceive as somatic really aren't as deep as they could be, for example, "somatic yoga" by definition. Khandro-la takes us into the deepest places of our somatic self in SBT and I too have found myself laughing and crying at the same time in her classes. Since starting SBT, I find that other types of movement (like when I teach yoga/do yoga) aren't as satisfying without incorporating some sort of dakini movement inspired by Khandro-la.
