The dynamics of power pervade human relationships in couples, families and groups. Power can be used to protect or to abuse. How do we understand the effects of the use of power on our somato-psychological development and well-being? This experiential workshop will explore the influence of power as it affects our psyche-soma - for good, for not so good, and for evil. We will explore the embedding of power dynamics in body, personality and character organization and their enactment in the transference. Exercise Classes: Bioenergetic Body Work Classes Location: Ripley-Grier Studios 131 West 72nd Street, Studio 3R Work with the body addresses breathing and chronic muscular tension through a variety of movements, positions, and exercises. Bioenergetic Exercises facilitate change on a deep body level, increasing one’s ability to experience pleasure and contactfulness in living--feeling connected to oneself, to others, and to one's surroundings. Please wear clothing in which you feel comfortable moving. To Enroll: (212) 665-3908 IIBA Professional Development Workshop
Somatic Transference: Relational-Family-Power Dynamics IIBA Faculty: Elaine Tuccillo, Diana Guest, and Maryse Doess The struggle for authenticity, intimacy and healthy open communication in relationships toward the goal of making a safe emotional space is met with obstacles. Working with individuals in psychotherapy, the Bioenergetic therapist must be attuned specifically to relational problems and patterns that are determined by transference and family power dynamics. These unconscious relational and early attachment dynamics work to structure the somatopsychic character patterns of the individual and the family through such psychic forces as identification, introjection, projection, idealization, scapegoating, polarization and competition, empathy, love and hate. The interplay of these unconscious dynamics is revealed in body language, emotional expression and behavioral interactions that are complexly intertwined with verbal communication. In this workshop we will investigate the somatic underbelly and somatic impact of these various relational vectors to see how they are embedded in unconscious communications between parent and child, couples, peers, siblings, in friendships and work relationships. The general goal will be to appreciate the somatospychological impact (both constructive and destructive) of these dynamics on patterns of individual and family development, and their legacy of repetition. Main goals and setting. The work will take place in small groups with participants at a similar level of advanced skill and experience in bioenergetics. Three tracks will accommodate participants from advanced trainees to experienced therapists and trainers. Track 1 concerns newly graduated CBTs and advanced trainees (4 plus years of training). Track 2 concerns advanced CBTs. Track 3 concerns supervisors, local trainers and IIBA faculty applicants. Group themes will include advanced considerations in working with somatic transference, supervision of in-group and outside case material, teaching theory and practice. The work will be intensively experiential and supervisory in nature and there will be an opportunity for those interested in application as IIBA faculty to develop their skill as teachers and to be seen and evaluated by members of the selection committee. Program: The program will include large group sessions on selected topics presented by the staff of the workshop or from faculty applicant participants. Some of the topics that will be addressed include: the nature of the safe emotional space; transference dynamics that obstruct authenticity and intimacy, especially those that are determined by trauma and chronic abuse; power dynamics in dyads and families and their effect on somatopsychic development and development of relationships. Among other forces we will examine the role of seduction, manipulation, intimidation, oedipal competition, and punishment as they operate with subtlety, unconsciously or obviously. Therapeutic strategies and interventions for identifying and responding to these dynamics will be explored. Topics not covered in large group presentations will be discussed and processed in the small groups through the use of case studies and personal experience. Price and scholarship: Keeping the cost of the PDW as low as possible is a primary concern of the Teaching Committee and the Executive Committee. The Faculty staff contributes to this goal by accepting reduced fees. We have located a retreat center that has reasonable fees and several room options. This year the prices are in dollars. We are aware that for some members, attendance is prevented largely by travel cost. The way we can help is by offering scholarships. Any request of such financial assistance must be addressed to Odila Weigand, chairperson of the teaching committee at odilawei@superig.com.br. We are looking forward to welcoming a group of committed, open, dedicated Bioenergetic therapists for five days of hard work, exciting learning and enriching personal development. The language will be in English although Maryse does speak French, Spanish and some Portuguese as well. We encourage participants from all countries and we know from past experience that participants can help each other with translation.
