This is a unique opportunity to discover the transformative power of mindfulness & movement practices in an extraordinary environment, during a week in July when summer is at its height. You will be supported in a small, friendly group & given expert guidance, making this creative residency accessible for both complete beginners, & those with more experience in outdoor adventures &/or somatic movement practices.

We will weave together time learning to sail on the water, & time moving & creating together on the land. With simple prompts & easy-to-follow instructions, you will be guided through different creative explorations which respond to the surrounding environment as it changes day-by-day. Together we will work with breathing, witnessing, movement, touch, stillness, & reflecting in words & images. Through this embodied play we will discover how slowing down & bringing awareness to sensory experiences can help us find new ways of connecting to ourself, others, & the world.

This collaborative practice asks: what might our role be in witnessing, celebrating, & protecting the interwoven ecological tapestry in which we play a key part? By noticing our sensory experiences, we allow ourselves to enter into a receptive state of deep listening & connecting, through which we can imagine, rediscover, & begin to work towards new ways of being in the world. Return home renewed & inspired by the wild shores of the islands, & your imagination.
