Facilitator:
Join Ash Rucker, movement educator, founder of Therapart, and Spoke facilitator, for a three-part summer series to express yourself freely, sweat, play, and create. Each session (come one or come all) will allow you to access 3 emotions: self-compassion, joy, and serenity. This movement and art experience offered 1 time each month of summer, will give you the tools to dive deep into how these emotions live in our minds, bodies and souls. Each session will be inspired by artists and activists such as Bell Hooks, Maya Angelou and Alice Walker.

One of the hardest human emotions to experience can surprisingly be joy, as we are taught to focus on the negative in order to protect ourselves. Through guided movement, visualization, journaling, community dialogue, free movement practices and a therapeutic art experience, this session in the Move Through series will support you in being with what's hard (anger, sadness, stuckness, fear), shaking it off, and make space for the silly, playful, joyous version of you. We will take inspiration from Alice Walkers "Possessing the Secret of Joy."
