About Us

We recognize the healing and restorative power of the arts.

This process of self-care is inspired by the somatic and creative arts as a form of self-inquiry. It combines two Filipino words, galaw (to move) and nilay (to reflect), showing our need to integrate our being and doing.

It will guide you to feel (dama), experience (danas), flow (daloy), and learn to be a joyful and kind witness to yourself in a creative, sometimes playful manner. Practical tools for wellness, release, self-care and creative expression will also be offered especially catered to your specific needs.

In Galaw-Nilay, we recognize te healing and restorative power of the arts.
