EVENTS OF THE DAY:
2:00-4:00 p.m.: Labrisz somatic workshop
Baross16 Community Center (Debrecen, Baross Gábor u. 16.)
PLEASE NOTE The workshop (like all programs) is FREE, but advance registration is required for the workshop event, which we are accepting until August 17, 2025, at the email address szucsreka@labrisz.hu!
Focus: body-mind connection, self-care, inner awareness, organ awareness
Facilitators: Rózsa Kedves-Katonai, certified psychologist and yoga instructor & Dóra Ida Szűcs, contemporary dancer, choreographer, performer
Purpose of the class: This event is organized by the LABRISZ Lesbian Association and aims to provide a space for us to slow down, listen inwardly, and connect with our bodies, feelings, and inner worlds.
What matters here is not how your movements look, but how you are present in them. You don't have to conform, you don't have to know anything – just listen, let go, and connect.
The exercises – self-massage, meditation, Taoist movement forms, and free improvisation – help you listen to your body's messages and move at your own pace toward regeneration, letting go, or rebuilding.
We believe that if we learn to connect with ourselves in a compassionate and accepting way, we will become more open, understanding, and accepting towards others. Self-love and self-healing are therefore not only personal but also communal. This space is therefore not only individual but also shared—a place where we can be present with each other just as we are.
