Rooted in the playful, powerful practices of InterPlay, this Professional Group Supervision series offers:
A space of sounding, sighing, moving, and meaning-making
Permission to bring your full self—messy, wise, weary, curious
Tools for listening to your body, to each other, while witnessing with creativity and care

Opportunity to explore a piece of work that can be held within the group.

Through one-hand dances, babbling, storytelling, exformation and deep noticing, we’ll tend the subtle stories behind your sessions:

How do you hold space with your voice?
What truth hums beneath your words?
What if your body could speak without explanation?
