Upcoming Embodied Writing Events

Move Onto the Page: Embodied Writing

This 2-hour generative co-writing practice invites embodied creativity through breath and conscious movement to help writers move beyond resistance and open into imagination. After an accessible Your Yoga Dance® practice that focuses on curiosity, improvisation, and play, we’ll act as accountability partners as we write in community for an hour. Afterward, participants will have a chance to share new words or discoveries about embodied creative process. Writing prompts will be offered, but writers are encouraged to follow their creative instincts. Participants should wear clothing that allows for movement, and bring their writing tools. No dance experience needed.

October 4th, 9-11am CST, $20
In-person at Plymouth Congregational Church
