Co-Creating Authentic Connections    NEW!

This class is composed of structured interactions in larger and smaller groups, from dyads to the whole class. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about one another, share about their own lives and build skills and agreements that allow for deeper conversations and connections. The class will be a bit of encounter group blended with theater and team-building games, with a dash of improv. Expect to touch and be touched, both physically and emotionally. Feed your playful side and counteract feelings of isolation or loneliness. Come willing to take some risks, stretch yourself and make some new friends!

NOTE: Although this class shares some elements with growth-oriented therapy groups, it is not therapy. Participants should be able to manage their own experience and emotions in the class without needing help from others. A private continuation of this group will be available upon the conclusion of the class. Signed liability waiver required to participate.
