This is a spiritually inflected class with lots of group interaction, so be prepared to open your heart chakra wider than usual!  In addition to stretching from both the inside and out, movement, play, visualization and writing from the body will be our focus. Some historical and philosophical context for the pursuit of "Crazy Wisdom" will be offered as well. This class is especially good for actors, speakers, kachinas and anyone looking to boost their confidence or amp their presentation skills, whether for personal or career purposes. Minimum class size 6 people - maximum 12.  Please sign up asap! We will have a substantial break or two, so bring a bag lunch and a cozy blanket for a light nap.
