Moscow Training Group

From Russia with love!

In December 2022, we participated in a seminar held by Odila Weigand. An amazing 4-day process was dedicated to body reading, psychodynamic issues, diagnostic benchmarks, and patient observation in the BA therapy. We felt as if through Odila we had touched Lowen and felt the connection of times and the infinite presence of his spirit.

In January 2023, a great and very special event happened for Moscow Training Group when Gabriel Puopolo De Almeida came to snow-covered Moscow for a live seminar. He spent 8 days warming our frozen souls with Brazilian warmth and music. We shared grief, joy, fear, and learned more about the beauty and power of BA and ourselves. Gabriel told us, "I am here to help you so that you can help your patients and your people in this difficult time."

In February and late April 2023, Dante Moretti gave us 2 intensive seminars on working with psychodynamics in BA, for which we are very grateful.

In March 2023, “notre fleur de Coeur” Louise Fréchette gave us a 4-day workshop on "Expanding concepts and techniques related to transference and countertransference, and intersubjective relationships and resonance". Louise herself is a shining example of humanity and strength of spirit for us!

We are grateful to Rogerio Ziotti for conducting the great intervision groups on psychoanalysis and to Gabriel Puopolo De Almeida on the Theory of Reichian Therapy.

And we are very much looking forward to the next workshop of our trainer Anat Gihon in June.
