CONTINUUM
CONTINUUM MOVEMENT
“In resonance all fluid systems are united. I say that no matter where in the galaxy they may be, all fluid systems function as basically one body or organ of intelligence.”
-Emilie Conrad, founder of Continuum Movement.

Continuum is an on-going exploration of the fluid intelligence that resonates through all living beings, the planet, and the cosmos. It is a meditative movement practice, accessible to people of varied physical abilities.

Using gentle movements, breath, and sound, we observe this intelligence as it moves through our bodies, restoring vitality and fluidity, as well as allowing us to experience deeper states of rest and nourishment.

If this work calls to you, or you are curious to experience Continuum, consider signing up for a webinar with Cherionna Menzam-Sills.
We are the moving water brought to land.
- Emilie Conrad
THE FLUID ELEMENT WITHIN THE HUMAN
Emilie Conrad, the visionary pioneer of Continuum Movement, describes the human body as interpenetrating wave motions that have stabilized within a particular electromagnetic field called Earth, for a purpose that we are unaware of.

Within our bodies, our cells, resides a bio-intelligence that is the product of billions of years of evolution, a system that is continually learning and adjusting to a universal rhythm.

Unfolding this bodily capability, this potential for infinite intelligence has been the basis of the enquiry that is Continuum movement.
PATTERNED LIMITATIONS
Whether due to trauma, physical challenges, or the fast-paced life that has become a norm, the human body learns to adapt in order to survive. Our muscles tense up, become rigid and solidify into patterned states. Repetitive actions, performed day in and day out, cause our bodies to become locked in habitual states, limiting our infinite potential.

Continuum sequences are designed to soften the conditioning, the adaptive patterns and the inhibitors that hamper our access to the cosmic intelligence of our bodies.
FLUID RESONANCE OF COSMIC INTELLIGENCE
Fluid is a resonant element. The fluid within our bodies, our planet, and our universe is engaged in a resonant stream of what Emilie called bio-cosmic nourishment. Her background as a dancer and choreographer allowed Emilie to view this fluid nature in terms of motion and movement, rather than chemical exchange or bio composition.
ELEMENTS OF A CONTINUUM PRACTICE
BREATH AS A WAVE
Continuum brings us in touch with our breathing, builds awareness of the power of breath, and allows the breath to move more fully through our bodies, bringing us nourishment and vitality. Continuum breaths help us relieve stress and enhance relaxation, bringing oxygen to all the cells, and revealing the fluid intelligence that is our birthright.
THE HARMONICS OF LIFE
Sound is a vital aspect of Continuum movement. Emilie found the vibration of sound to be the most powerful method to soften states of rigidity, freeze, and even paralysis within the body. The vibrations move through our bodies, gently moving muscle, tissue, and even bone, to stimulate and revitalize the system.
MOVING MEDICINE
Continuum uses slow, intentional movement to awaken the fluid potential within our tissues. We offer these movements to the body and in turn, the body is moved. These movements open us up to new possibilities, creates new paths, and develops our ability to be present in the moment.

Continuum has been used for 50 years to enhance health and function with many types of health issues. Our bodies are made up mostly of water. Continuum explores why this is so and leads us to an important key to health and well being.
