Created by Brazilian choreographer Chaim Gebber, the Conscious Body System (CBS) is a series of mental and physical exercises that enhance body functionality through improvisational techniques and cross-lateral movement patterns. These exercises are designed to cultivate awareness, benefiting both personal and collective physicality. CBS encourages movers to actively build strength rather than conserve it, teaching them how to apply this strength safely and healthily. The method emphasizes precision and conscious engagement with each person’s unique body structure. CBS training develops essential movement skills, particularly transitioning smoothly to and from the floor, gradually progressing toward confidence with rapid weight shifts. This is practiced by shifting weight safely at personalized speeds—whether quickly or as slowly as needed. Each class begins with paired hands-on work, using gentle massage to activate muscles, warm up the skin, and ease the joints. After approximately 15 minutes of this reciprocal massage, participants engage in group exercises that include contact work. Here, each person focuses on their own movement while maintaining awareness and connection with others.
