Aaron Cantor is a movement coach, bodyworker, personal trainer, yogi, and movement generalist. He’s the founder of Primal Practice, an intuitive and playful method of fostering wellness through the development of mindfulness and movement skills. He’s also a coach with Evolve Move Play, a collective that empowers people to cultivate movement practices through their outdoor training program. Aaron’s work shows us that by reconnecting to the body and its capacities through a nourishing blend of strengthening, meditation, and restorative play, one can transform their perception of themselves and the world around them.
Aaron joins us under the Dome to guide listeners through a simple, embodied movement practice; to impart the importance of paying attention to the physical, embodied aspects of the human experience we’re often conditioned to ignore; and to share a vision for a more playful, interconnected, and creative society through the embodiment of more expressive and relational ways of being.
"Liquid Cartography" by Twila Newey I have known my body as a plexus of river maybe forever vessel & blue-green vein, a topographical map flowing just beneath my skin, raised, pooled at the pale inner bend of elbow full, easy target for red needled penetration. Recently they've discovered another liquid system, the color & substance of flow evaporated mystery. Unmapped channels have always run through me then. An elusive network that disappears into line of sinew when the body dries, a desert society of empty seasonal streams. What is the substance of impernance? A trick like light, both wave and particle? When I was as small as the child who floats by my window, his hands swimming through air carried high on the shoulders of an old man, I learned the heft of my body is ninety percent water. A fact that still slips through me like rain.
