Ariel-Paul Sanders
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Arie is passionate about guiding the youth back into connection with the larger web of life. He believes the natural world provides an endless resource that allows us to deepen into the fullness of our potential through the meeting of ourselves with our surroundings.
A fundamental question for young people today is how to orient ourselves in a world where things don't seem to make sense anymore. This question can be both an existential catalyst for growth and a deeply distressing inquiry. Ariel-Paul is inspired to create spaces big enough to hold the complexity of this question and believes that an embodied connection to mother earth is a fundamental resource in this process.
Arie is trained with a bachelor of Child and Youth Care and am trained in somatic relational attachment therapy. He practices and facilitates the arts of Sacred Clown and Poetry. He has a longtime philosophical/spiritual practice of meditation and imaginal inquiry inspired by the work of Rudolf Steiner's Anthroposohy and the Christian Mystical Tradition. I have recently been expanding this to include Indigenous ways of knowing, doing, and being through an apprenticeship in the Pachakuti Mesa tradition of the Quero people from the Peruvian Andes.
