Session—"Moving Dialogues: What Do I Need From My Community? What Can I Offer?"

Tap into your own creativity, clarity, and happiness. Moving Dialogues are a powerful way to come together, experience each other’s perspective, and create deeper meaning. Zero dance experience is expected—Moving Dialogues are for everyone and every body. Be prepared to: write, move your body, think, and play.

Who is "Moving Dialogues" for?

Anyone seeking authentic feedback on any topic, to create community between groups, to build teamwork, support, and empathy for any group within an organization. Or, to create a community quickly amongst strangers, new-hires, or retreat attendees.
