This month's theme is "You Can't Stay Stuck if You're Moving"
You will learn how the process works... by consciously owning our patterns and then moving our bodies away from repetitive and outdated patterns and stuck points. Within this creative and fun process we begin to tap into our deeper creativity, aliveness and true path from the inside out. The workshops and trainings offer you an opportunity to study and experience the powerful methods utilized in Expressive Arts Therapies that can include art, music, movement, drama and play as a path toward healing and wholeness. Also explores the various methods in relation to working with children, adults and ourselves.
Come learn about the power of Creative Arts Therapy, Movement and Imagery. You will move through the creative and personal limits we find in our lives to be released into your true strength and new inspiration from within! $25 students/$50 pre-reg. and door. http://www.bodyworks-studio.com/workshops2.htm or call 480-894-2090 to register.
