UNLOCKING CONFIDENCE & CREATIVITY
workshop
This workshop will nurture experiences from which confidence
and creativity can emerge. By fostering an attitude of playfulness and non-judgemental
self acceptance Raelene will promote the development of self trust and a belief that whatever
you do will be okay. She will faciltate games, vocal explorations, experiences and tricks of the trade
to overcome anxiety, guide you through the creative process,
and experience the joy of confident self-expression.
Yoga teacher and dance movement therapist Elizabeth MacKenzie will gently ease us into our explorations.
Elizabeth works with aliveness and connection through the body in order to experience
confidence and creativity.
There will be a long lunch break to enjoy the area and/or go out for lunch.
