In a safe, non-judgmental space, we will free our creative, playful spirits, build self-esteem, and come into fuller expression, authenticity and wholeness using sound, song, movement, writing, art, theatre games, improvisation, drumming, and other expressive arts techniques.

Based in part on the Inter-modal Method developed by Natalie Rodgers

Improvisation is a powerful tool for releasing inhibitions and self-judgement, building self-esteem, developing presence and trusting the unfolding of each moment.
