Workshop Offerings:

Creative Brain Magic
For Grades P-6

Using theatre, movement and expressive exercises to uncover the creative minds of each student. The way that we each look at the world is unique, the more we acknowledge that the more we realize it’s our greatest capacity. A whole lot of curious play and fun goes into this workshop where students develop motor skills in movement games, confidence in expressing ideas and the skills to follow those initial creative thoughts we often push down, judge or discard. What if your first thought bubble is always the one to follow?!
