Flow State 

How do you get out of your own way when you’re creating something? Wouldn’t it be nice to easily step into a flow state?

Rediscover the playful joy of writing in this workshop, where you’ll draw on stage improvisation techniques to discover the voice, characters, plot points and dialogue of a story. Step out of your head and into the present moment with live, experiential activities as well as writing exercises and discussion – all in an environment of safety and joy.

Thursday 18 September, 8:30AM-9:30AM
