Body Ensouled, Enacted and Entranced: A 2-Day Workshop with Daria Halprin

There is a potent connection to be made between the physical, emotional and imaginative experience of the mover. Working with our life material as we make this connection, movement as metaphor and as narrative, reveals, expresses and transforms. Drawing upon her life and work as a dancer, poet, teacher, and therapist, this workshop with Daria Halprin will be a creative exploration on returning home to the body and to the heart of what matters in your life through art making.
