At this half-day Improv for Creative Freedom workshop you are invited to:
- Unleash your childlike expressive nature in a welcoming, attuned container
- Get into the flow state via improv, dance, and authentic relating games
- Take yourself less seriously by trying on new ways of being you
- Engage in exercises designed to bring this energy into your life
Deep inside you lies an endless well of creative potential: the wild and magical energy of your inner child. Many of us have shut down aspects of our innocent playful expressive nature; societal expectations and ancestral traumas have artificially molded us to conform and fit-in, resulting in various degrees of shut-down and contrived normalcy. This workshop is a call to re-open to the wild joyous free play of who we really are.
Movement and dance practice will invite soulful states to express through our bodies.
Authentic relating exercises will help us connect from the heart, building comfort and rapport as a group. Playful improv games will help us open to the flow and become freer and more confident in our expression.
*~* Bring writing materials-- This special half-day workshop will also feature a period of journaling to gently balance the activity of the day. *~*
Participate at whatever level is authentic to you- this is not an improv performance class. In a low-pressure environment, everyone is encouraged to find their growth edge into a more playful, expressive, loving way of being. No one is required to do anything.
This event is in-person only. Sliding Scale $60 - $220
