Flowing Verse: Dance, Breath & Poetry
This workshop invites us to explore the wisdom of the body through breath, poetry, and guided movement. We’ll begin with calming breathwork and visualization to ground the nervous system, then move into practices that ignite creative expression. Drawing from poetry and imagery, we’ll explore improvisational movement that reflects our inner landscapes and present-moment truth. Rooted in care, curiosity, and imagination, this space welcomes all bodies, identities, and experience levels. Please bring comfortable clothing, a pen and paper/journal.
Facilitator: Rachel Helten
This series was presented at The Dance Centre Open House in 2024 and 2025, with plans to continue in the future.
