"To do Soma is to strive to be free and so to be revolutionary and happy."
Has anyone had any experience with this form of therapy, which apparently combines Gestalt theory, Capoeria martial arts, and revolutionary politics? It originates in Brazil, and apparently doesn't have a large english-speaking following (i.e. there's no wikipedia entry regarding it) - although it sounds potentially very awesome as, perhaps a 'discipline of undiscipline'. I personally have very little idea of how good it is or nature, but you can read more here:

and the website, which is apparently in English as well as Portugese though I haven't figured out how you transform it:

Has anyone had any full physical experience with it, and could explain and divulge more? |
