The 34th annual BMCA conference will take place at University of California, Santa Barbara. We hope to see you there! In the meantime, please email Erica, BMCA Lead Conference Administrator or Toni Smith, Conference Chair, with questions.
Self and Other
Valuing Self and Other acknowledges difference and begins to reveal our vibrant interdependence. What somatic practices or rituals foster our ability to meet with a deeper awareness of Self, while finding discovery and heartfelt respect for Other? Can we meet without assuming another’s experience? What does somatic research bring forth?
BMCA would like to express gratitude to 34th BMCA Conference Site Liaison, brooke smiley, for focusing the theme for this event.
