Join Steve James in the
Movement Koan Method® video, an innovative fusion of joint-nourishing movement and body-based mindfulness.
About The Movement Koan Method®
This material is an expression of Steve’s 25+ years of deep engagement in various somatic practices (including competitive martial arts, yoga, and qigong), meditation as well as contemplative and mystic traditions.
The Movement Koan® Method forms the basis of the embodiment instructions in all our workshops and intensives alongside the Non-Linear Movement Method®. Those of you who’ve experienced Steve’s movement work first-hand know how effective it is for opening the body and leading into intimacy practices, partnered work, and meditation – so we’re really excited to be able to make this available for you to follow along at home!
The video includes two whole-body standing sequences, a dedicated floor section designed to open the hips and prepare the body for sitting in meditation (or on the floor in general) and a bonus guided meditation in the style Steve teaches at our events.
We hope you will enjoy this video as a new addition to your bodily practices and a great way to give to your body and integrate your workshop experiences in daily life!

Testimonials
Profound insights
"What I love about The Movement Koan Method is how effortless the practice is and how noticeable the benefits are in my own experience. It’s been a fantastic addition to my morning ritual and each time I do it, I enjoy greater openness in my body and a deeper intimacy with what is arising in my experience. During the guided meditation with Steve, I have had profound insights into the nature of my experience, which has come about in a very subtle, gentle and organic way. Regardless what level of experience you have with this modality, I feel everyone would benefit greatly for this powerful offering."
