CHRISTIAN DE SOUSA
Movement Medicine™
Christian (London/Devon, UK) is a dancer, movement facilitator, DJ, artist & Dad. He first experienced the liberation of dancing as a teenage raver, eventually meeting Gabrielle Roth and the 5Rhythms in 1998, training as a teacher in 2005 and going on to build a vibrant community within the London tribe.
Having studied and mentored with Ya’Acov & Susannah Darling Khan throughout this time, he was deeply moved by the subtle power of Movement Medicine and became one of the first MM ‘pathfinder’ teachers in 2010. Christian is core faculty for the School of Movement Medicine, whilst continuing to practice and teach the Rhythms and occasionally experimenting with his own emerging map, dancingTao, a synthesis of these two and other influences. He founded the dTc (dancingTao collective) an engaged group of facilitators, artists, therapists and other dancing agents of change – and is the creator of the book and multimedia art project Postcards from Babylon – a rough guide to liberation. Favourite fruit/nut combination: peaches and almonds, eaten in the sun.
