Flow Arts is a fitness meditation practice that puts bodies in balance and motion. Flow Arts blends meditation, play, exercise and dance into a fun and healthful activity that moves the body, stills the mind and uplifts the spirit. It is movement with an external focus aimed at putting you "in the zone" or, as we like to say, in the Flow. The techniques are simple, but the adaptations are infinite, allowing for wild variations in personal style and expression, as well as the opportunity to make & share novel discoveries. The movement can be aerobic, calming, energizing, challenging, showy or anything else. Flow Arts improves dexterity, focus, coordination, body awareness, spatial skills and promotes brain plasticity. It is grounding wellness practice that is also a sexy performance art. Flow Arts is like Yoga, Tai Chi, Dance and Juggling all rolled into Fun! I've tried many different types of physical and energetic practices -- Flow Arts is the most effective, most fun, most clarifying, most energizing, easiest to stick to system I have found. Students start learning tricks and forms on the very first day, and most progress quite rapidly. Learning new things rewards patience and triggers a dopamine boost. Flow Arts success is neurochemically habit forming! It is a fast growing wellness & lifestyle art form that is just about to break through into our collective cultural consciousness. Flow Temple's mission is to introduce Flow Arts to the world and to catalyze its integration into mainstream culture as an accepted and accessible vitality-increasing personal practice in the vein of Yoga, Tai Chi, meditation, Pilates, Tae Bo, etc. You get to be an early adopting trend setter. Many people say that though Flow Arts is great, they personally could never do it. "I'm too uncoordinated," "I've got no rhythm," "I'll hit myself, "I can't dance." I said all that. Everyone can learn Flow Arts. I'm teaching my 65 year old mom who had all the same self deprecating objections. She's rocking it and loving it! In addition to body movement and spatial awareness, there are lessons to be gleaned from Flow Arts that will promote life harmony, improve your happiness, and make smoother all your interations with people. Practicing Flow Arts teaches patience, confidence, learning to learn, embracing novelty and uncertainty, letting things Flow and take their own course instead of trying to jam and force them, calmly and appropriately handling situations in which you would otherwise panic, and helps you overcome fear. Take a moment and really imagine what your life would be like if you made marked improvement in those areas. Students come out of every Flow Arts class session feeling challenged, rewarded, energized and totally excited about how much they have learned and how fast they have progressed. Students make VERY visible and measurable progress every time, and feel good about it. Mom practiced Transcendental Meditation in the 60s and she feels light and energized after our Flow Arts sessions – the same benefits she got from TM! Flow Temple offers free optional phone coaching to help keep you on the path. If you want it, we'll call you every single day to support and encourage your practice to help you get the most out of Flow Temple classes that you possibly can.
