Creativity Meeting Contemplation

Saturday 29th April
Pitchcombe Village Hall
The first part in our four course series on Creativity Meeting Contemplation. This course looks at how we can distinguish conditions for ethical communication.
When we improve the quality of dialogue in our relationships, we recognise where latent creativity can be made use of.
For more details follow the link below.
Learning Structure
The essential form within each session remains a circular dialogue, returning to the core disciplines of the spoken voice, the gestural body and the imaginal mind. Through the integration of these forms we nurture a listening practice.
Learning Benefits
This work generates an ongoing internal dialogue, expanding the understanding of oneself.
Through the process, you will achieve a greater sense of personal empowerment which informs the transformation of your particular skill development or self-enquiry.

Learning Leader
The sessions are led by Nicholas Twilley who offers 30 years of educational and performative experience.
