SUMMARY:Poetry of Movement with Peggy Lamb: Moving Through Writing
DESCRIPTION:This is your chance to discover how delightfully creative you are! Come play with us as we explore the relationship between the language of words and the language of the body. As we dance the inexpressible\, we will come to know the symbolic language of movement and the cellular wisdom that swims through our bodies. Without judgment or criticism\, we will write our lives\, our dances\, our songs\, and our poetry. Using gentle stretches and movement exercises\, we will open our body’s mind to let our words flow.\n\nPrevious movement and/or writing experience is NOT required.\n\n\nThis class meets every Saturday morning from 10-11 am CT\, September 17th through November 5th\, 2022 at Conley-Guerrero Senior Center at 808 Nile St\, Austin\, TX 78702. The class is donation based and limited to 16 participants. Register here.\n\n\n
