These classes explore the foundational practice of Recapitulation from Taisha Abelar’s The Sorcerer’s Crossing. In this series, you will learn 9 different ways to recapitulate events. Each class will present one specific theme and a recapitulation exercise accompanied by martial arts sequences that Taisha taught me. These powerful movements support body strengthening, balance, and coordination, while also revitalizing internal organs and enhancing energy flow. Taisha was a master at focusing her mind on the task at hand, maintaining a state of ‘grounded calmness.” Spending time with her and learning from her wisdom was a gift: her sense of awe and gratefulness for life was contagious to the point that I live it in me every day. In her book, she describes several techniques and practices about connecting to nature, and we will address some of them, including being under a tree to absorb the nurturing energy of the earth, walking in darkness to confront and release fear, and seeing plants as sentient beings.
