Course Description

This course is an emergent event and encounter. Trusting the scaffolding of the human being as a being of body, soul and spirit, we will explore ancient to present day methods, experiences and approaches to accessing our sense of knowing, of inspiration, and of purpose. Conversation, investigations, presentations, ritual and experiential activities with the arts will invite us into a declarative space of “I am this body of knowledge”.

Learning Invitations: An exploration of ancient to present day ideas on the construct of the human being. Exploration of each participant's body of knowledge through various creative methods and mediums, and through a diversity of lenses. Creation or renew a body of personal practice to strengthen and support their individual process of coming to know.
