We are very excited to announce our first Manawa Hui!

Creative Flow // Tall Poppies Storytelling is an immersive event designed to unleash your creativity and connect you with a supportive community.

This evening promises to be a blend of movement, improvisation, and heartfelt storytelling.

-Doors open at 6pm-

Opening Circle

Creative Exercises: Expressive activities that ignite your creativity and prepare you for deeper storytelling.

Movement Warm-Up: Begin with gentle movements to awaken your body and connect with your breath, setting the stage for a relaxed and open state of mind.

Improv Prompts:Engage in playful improvisation exercises that spark spontaneity and break down barriers, fostering a sense of freedom and joy.

Tall Poppies Storytelling:You are invited to prepare a five to seven-minute true story about yourself, centered around the theme Manawa/heart/

- Most of the audience will just watch, but seven names will be drawn to share their stories. If you feel inspired, prepare a story and give it a go!

- Here are some tips for preparing your story:

- Use the broad theme to inspire memories of personal, life-changing experiences.

- Choose one of your most memorable moments and share the leading up and aftermath.

- Humor is welcome, but not necessary. Authentic voices are powerful on stage.

- Write it down to get it to five minutes and pinpoint the most crucial moments to include.

Closing Circle: Reflect and share your experiences in a supportive circle, ending with a gratitude exercise and a calming meditation to help you transition back to your daily life.

Manawa Hui is a safe space where we as "non" artists (if you ask us, we are all artists!) get to be creative, be heard, seen, and form authentic connections through the arts.

Join us for Creative Flow // Tall Poppies Storytelling and experience the power of connecting through shared stories and expressive movement. The story telling part is voluntary and not compulsory, so don't be scared—come and enjoy being in the juicy creative flow!
