What could writing become if we moved away from the critiquing model and into imaginative and intuitive enquiry? Infusing vital practices from practitioners of dance and the healing arts. What might happen if we do it together?
Let’s grow away from the standard group model together. Root our practices and methods in imaginative approaches, movement, and enquiry. With WriteMovement, Nicola choreographs an emergent, witnessing process for participants to experience their own and each other’s vital creative process.

I miss coming to that place.
Some Yin Energy to go do the Yang Work.
Open to writers across any form, whether novelists, artists, musicians, dancers, poets, or health, body, and spirit care professionals. If you’ve got something you want to write, here’s your opportunity to get clear and bright on the matter before moving into the work in inspired ways.
