Continuum is the name given to a way that, in truth, like the Tao, can not be named, nor defined. It's modern western incarnation flows directly from it's founder Emilie Conrad, and further co-developed by Susan Harper and many others.
Continuum is an invitation to play in the ocean of being human. We are fluid systems and in Moving Inquiry we experiment with movement, breath, sound, creative ritual, and relating that mirrors and engages our living fluid nature. By learning to differentiate and sense into the many complex layers of our own biology and thought - by opening the gates of our own internal perception - we come into conscious relationship with all life. The awakening of this consciousness infuses every part of our being - physical, emotional, spiritual, and communal - with spontaneous grace and ease.
The Benefits are that we become:
Continuum compliments: yoga, meditation, bodywork, athletics, music, dance, healing, community, and creativity in general.
Meetings offer space for community exchange, discussion of Moving Inquiry philosophy, demonstrations of open form explorations, and a longer time of personal movement inquiry called a “Dive”.
My Experience has been that the inquiry of Continuum is without end, but the stream of it it can be entered very simply and very quickly by coming to it's essential aesthetic.
The Benefits are that we become:
- present
- supple
- balanced
- strong
- joyful
- relaxed
- adaptable
- trusting of our inate biological intelligence
- and filled with the deep pleasure of breathing in every moment.

A Continuum aesthetic and exploration
You are amazing. You are a confluence of the 10,000 things coming together as you - right now. Remember that, and please do yourself this favor: Enjoy one - easy – long – slow - breath. Enjoy another as your lift one hand and turn it slowly over and back. Notice it’s texture, it’s shape, it’s color. Behold the miracle of it. Close your eyes and feel the radiant aliveness within it. Slowly open and close your hand - make a mild fist – splay it gently open. Allow it to move in any way it wants. Stay present to the sensation of the body breathing as you become more and more intimate with the sensation of your hand and it’s unlimited capacity for fluid exploratory movement. Come to a deep-hearted appreciation for the gift of this - your - hand.
Appreciation is energy. It opens the flow of life.
