Embodied Writing Practice

Week 6 | M, Tu, W, Th, F | Hultquist 201B | Ages 14 and up

This class is an hour long movement and writing practice for people of all abilities. The first 20 minutes is a short gentle movement and breathing practice (can be done from a chair). Then, a writing prompt will be given. You will then begin writing for 20 minutes. The idea is to keep your hand moving. You may write in response to the prompt. Or you may chose to write something completely different. A time of optional sharing will follow to bear witness to each other's creativity. You will be amazed at the writing you will generate from this simple practice. Led by expert yoga teacher and author Joanne Spence. No yoga experience necessary.
