What We Carry

Taking place during the Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival, this workshop invites participants who work in caring and creative health settings to spend an hour exploring gentle wellbeing exercises.

The workshop begins with a light directed physical group warm up - taking some time to notice any muscle tension and work to feel grounded in our bodies and ready for some creative exploration. We’ll then move on to creative activities with a focus on playfulness and grounding. We’ll finish with a group check out, preparing to step back out of the studio and get on with your day. 

No experience in dance necessary - come as you are! 

This is not a therapy session, and participants will not be asked to disclose private material. The workshop will be informed by reflective practice, while acknowledging that this is a one-off event.

Practical Information: Because we will be moving around the space, and sitting on the floor, you may wish to wear loose comfortable clothes you can move in. You will be invited to take your shoes off and work in socks.
