I recently taught a workshop in beautiful Philadelphia PA called The Art of Play.

The focus was on creative movement and exposure to different moving and martial arts like combat yoga and steel mace work (heavy but artistic and graceful.)

My creative movement workshops are about connection and communication.

Communication with yourself, with other people but also with the mediums and tools we use and play with.

I like to think of ourselves as craft folk and often use the imagery of us shaping the medium or the object, and in return, having the medium or object shape us back.

We touch the clay and the clay touches us back. We touch the yoga block or dragon's pearl and they touch us back.

Creative Movement Training is all about physical problem solving.

This Art of Play workshop took place in beautiful Jim Thorpe PA. The artists/athletes were quite a diverse group of movers, yogis, dancers, physical education teachers and gym rats.

A good time was had by all. We change partners often to bring even more variety and challenge.
