Dreamscapes of Body and Lineage: A Generative Workshop
$150
In this class we will delve into the complexities of knowing ourselves when our histories and lineages are fragmented. We will explore how we can create a sense of unity and connectedness in a self that contains not only multitudes, but buried and forgotten histories. Through writing exercises, visioning, and ritual, we will work to uncover the hidden wisdom of our bodies and tap into the power of language and imagination to create powerful bridges between our past, present, and future selves.
Students will receive a copy of Dream of Xibalba a poetry collection which explores fragmentation and lineage in the tradition of surrealist Latin American poetry. This class is open to writers of all levels who are interested in exploring the intersections of language, lineage, and selfhood.
Materials for class:
Tuition includes a materials fee.
Students should bring yoga mats and cushion or blanket, as well as several small objects of personal significance for altar building, as well as writing utensils of choice.
