As we transition out of Winter, the season of Water, and into Spring, life is revitalized by the exuberance and determination of Wood. 

The Wood Phase is marked by the smooth process of becoming. Like the first green sprouts bursting above the soil’s grasp, or the wayward weed miraculously whirling its tender face through cracks in the sidewalk, Wood is the energy of germination, birth, arousal, creativity, imagination, passion, growth, determination, and hope. Wood is that

which propels all lifeforms into the active manifestation of their authentic nature and destiny.

We will explore this Wood phase of the Five Phases

(Wu Xing) through breath, movement and interactive lecture.

Wood correlates with the Liver and its paired organ, the Gallbladder.

Water embodies will power, essential power, inherited constitution and fluidity.

During the Winter; In all of nature, Yang has been consumed by Yin. All of the plants and trees now lay dormant in our eyes, they have returned to the Mother (The Earth) for rest and rejuvenation in order to build an enormous amount of energy (Qi) into its roots from which they will be creatively expressed as new life (re-birth) in the Spring

We will explore this Water phase of the Five Phases

(Wu Xing) through breath, movement and interactive lecture.

The Kidney/ Adrenals and Urinary Bladder are governed by the Water Element.
