Adam Kashmiry
Kashmiry is a Neuro-Divergent performer, Experimental Mover ~ Writer and a Trans Activist.
I work with Movement, Vocality and vocal expression/ sound. Mime and body language.
(Gemini sun, rising and Mercury)
I am a qualified hypnotherapiest and NLP coach. I am interested in themes such as body language, subconscious expression, Psyche's symbolism. I'm curious of the psychology of behaviours, how we process trauma and how our wounds effect our daily choices/interactions.
