Sydney workshop – The Creative Life

Creativity is something we experience and express in how we build our lives through the everyday: in our relationships, in the challenges we face, in moments of change, in the unexpected. It is what drives us to keep moving forward, to find a way for life to continue, express itself, and expand.

We are creators in every moment, and each person’s creative ability and potential finds expression in diverse ways. Sometimes we associate creativity solely with artistic expression, but this is only one part of our creative capacity.

Everyone is creative. At work, you are creative when you write or you design a solution to meet a need or help someone else. When you cook a meal you are creating nourishment from ingredients that you might never eat separately. When life presents you with a challenge, you are creative when you problem solve and consider options for how to respond.

This 1 day workshop offers 2 Biodanza sessions where music, movement and connection with a group will help you connect with your innate creativity; followed by an optional craft session where you will use your creativity in action, learning to make your own piece of jewellery from leather scraps and metal components of your choice.

Ticket options:
*Full workshop (includes two Biodanza sessions, snacks and jewellery making session)
*Vivencia only (includes two Biodanza sessions and snacks)
Note: bookings close 1 week before the event, so that we can order supplies for the jewellery session.
