Somatic Writing with Kim Sargent-Wishart
Saturday 24 August 2024 10:00 AM - 11:30 PM (UTC+10)
This experiential workshop introduces participants to somatic techniques for writing from the senses. We will share simple movement practices to help connect to the sense of gravity, weight and place as an embodied foundation for the other senses. Explorations into peripheral vision, sound mapping, and imaginative forays into the environment serve as pathways into writing with and from the body’s myriad ways of perceiving.
No experience is necessary, just a willingness to try some gentle experiments in moving and writing, and to share your writing with other participants. Somatic writing can open up new pathways of perception, and foster the development of richness and multi-dimensional writing in any genre.
Up to 15 participants aged 18+. For those interested in exploring movement, kinesthesia and the senses in relation to writing.
Tickets $30pp OR $20pp for Geelong Regional Libraries Members (free to join) OR $10 for Concession holders.
