TRUST YOUR GUT / writing workshop
We have all had experiences--significant and everyday--that we can transform into powerful stories. Our challenge comes in finding the path from memory to prose. Using embodied practices and lessons in Generative Somatics, we will learn to listen to our natural instincts and impulses, using that to translate memories of an experience into a rich and compelling story.
No writing experience is required. Bring yourselves and your writing tools.
