Embodied Poetry: A Yoga and Writing Workshop
Join award-winning poet and storyteller Spencer Mason for a poetry and yoga workshop, with 45 minutes of yoga leading into 45 minutes of embodied responses to writing prompts. Drawing from techniques used in Hatha Yoga and Pranayama, this workshop seeks to create a space where the inner child thrives, and the inner artist is let loose. By centering our creativity in the body and breath, participants may discover new ways of connecting with their craft. Participants will be invited to explore writing in any medium they choose. Please bring a notebook and pen with you.
