If your body could speak, what would it say?

The Tamalpa Experience introduces an approach that enlivens dialogue between body and imagination, and life experiences and art making. Using movement, drawing, poetic writing, and improvisational performance, participants will tap into art’s symbolic language to explore current life themes and generate new resources.

This intensive workshop is offered three times a year and is designed to give participants an experiential understanding of Tamalpa’s work in movement-based healing arts. Recommended as an introduction to our training programs.

This workshop is designed for everyone. No previous experience in dance/art needed.
