Individual Sessions in gentle, guided movement and somatic experience tailored to your needs is an opportunity to have a one-to-one, both supportive and exploratory time for yourself. It is an opportunity to awaken your inner healing resources and/or expand on knowing yourself in more embodied, accepting and inclusive ways. Find your balance with my help! Anna
Sessions with Dr Anna Dako can be booked in three formats: via zoom, as an indoor/studio session or as an outdoor walk on a chosen location. In-person sessions can be booked for three locations: Aberdeen, Edinburgh & London.
Dunami offers also tailored Walks to Wellbeing sessions for organisations, delivered to organised groups. These walks are designed to meet specific needs and interests of individual groups and can be a fantastic offer within 'the wellbeing and green exercise scheme' of any organisation.
At Dunami, eco-somatic movement arts, intercultural dialogue and wellbeing are at the heart of everything we do.
Join us for Soma Scapes - a workshop series inspired by the transitional changes in the natural environment, and offered to help you find most supporting ways to tune your wellbeing into the natural rhythms of the seasons.
The Seedling is also Dunami's regular workshop in dance, movement and somatics that connects the intercultural and environmental contexts of practice. The Seedling is delivered by experienced practitioners who share their individual methodologies of work to facilitate new skills in creative wellbeing.
Contact us if you would like to host us for a workshop at your organisation! We would love to hear from you and discuss possible themes and interests!
Are you interested in delving deeper into the world of eco-somatic practice? Begin your own healing journey and develop a greater sense of self within ecologically inclusive contexts and get to know the methodology of Somatic Felt Thinking.
The best way to support your wellbeing is by walking! Walk to Wellbeing at your local nature paths, anywhere in the world, and sign up for Audio Walks guided by Dr Anna Dako. On purchase, you will receive one year long access to this online self-therapy course plus a free 1:1 individual support session with Anna.
Art Projects and Filmed Productions
Ecosomatic arts, inter-cultural dialogue, creative wellbeing and sustainability are the core of Dunami's work. Through the filmed or staged collaborative projects and research, we aim to promote these themes further and highlight key environmental, cultural and societal issues facing us all today.
If you are interested in collaborating, commissioning, or brainstorming on an idea, reach out to us!
Dunami offers screenings and presentations about the work and its processes. Screenings have previously taken place as part of dance festivals, symposiums and conferences at locations throughout the UK and abroad.
Check out our nominated for Scottish Landscape Award production ' Forest Within', and support our further work! We will greatly appreciate your donation, no matter the amount!
Practice as research is the core focus of Anna Dako's ongoing practice. Resulting directly from the projects and workshops delivered by Dunami, Anna has created a range of materials for publication in journals and books to support your individual needs for creative self-development and psycho-somatic wellbeing.
Educational Outreach Activities
At Dunami, we aim to promote and educate about the benefits and versatile applications of ecosomatic practices. We offer a range of educational outreach activities (including workshops, seminars and lectures) on the subject. These can be tailored to individual educational settings and audience members.
Contact us for details, and tell us about your interests and ideas.
We would love to hear from you!
