Using the Tamalpa approach, we will use drawing, movement, dance and poetic writing to come into closer contact with who we are at this moment in our lives. What is asking for our attention? What themes are surfacing? What images, symbols, metaphors, and stories present themselves through our art and our movement? What in our lives needs tending? Through guided exploration, we will speak the language of the body and the arts to deepen our experience of self.To get the most out of this online class, please prepare a comfortable space to move in with access to your online device and reliable internet service.
