Tamalpa Experience Workshops

If your body could speak,
what would it say?

These 2-day intensive workshops are offered twice a year (Winter and Spring) and are designed to give participants an experiential understanding of our work in movement-based healing arts. Recommended as an introduction to our training programs.

The Tamalpa Experience: Dialogues Between Life And Art Workshop introduces an approach that enlivens dialogues between body and imagination, life experiences and art making. Using movement, drawing, writing and improvisational performance, participants will tap into art's symbolic language to explore current life themes and generate new resources.
