Prayer is the interaction between word and the body. Our neshamot may respond to a word or phrase, and our prayer deepens or, conversely, we get distracted. We will work with the art of physical presence, inhabiting the words from Tehillim, the Psalms, and eventually, writing our own psalms/prayers from both the individual and communal movement experiences of our bodies.
