WORKSHOPS
Teaching and learning is at the heart of my creative practice.
My intentions are to work alongside people and to offer dynamic experiences where they can explore their creativity, voice and expression.
I am a facilitator - that means my job is to make things easier. I like to create pathways and processes that work for diverse learning styles and modes of engagement. I love seeing ideas come alive. I love seeing people come to life.
I work in poetry and expression - that means I have a desire to make it easier for messages, stories, and insights to come from within you and into the world.
I am passionate about my work because it helps me see the most interesting parts of humanity. It allows me to be present and in the world competing for our attention, this is valuable. Creativity matters. If you made it this far, I imagine you agree. Let's make something.
Workshops I am currently offering:
- Collective Rap Songwriting (1 - 3 hours): In this workshop, we write a song together. It's a great team building activity and it's a good way to tell a story together.
- Creation Story Workshop (1 hour): The stories we pick up, let go of and hold onto are the essence of who we are and serve as the interface for how we engage with the world around us. In this workshop, I offer prompts for you to reflect on your own creation story so you can see if for yourself.
- Activating the Inner Activist (2 - 4 hours): We all have something to say about something. In this workshop, I provide you with coaching and techniques to consolidate your ideas, do some research and structure a message in the form of a spoken word poem.
- From the Page to the Stage (1.5 hours) In this workshop, participants will learn techniques to transform their poetry text into a spoken word performance.
- One on One Coaching: I am open to providing coaching sessions for people who are interested in refining their craft whether its their written text or performance.
- Custom Workshop Curation: I am open to curating programmes with multiple workshops that can align with teaching and learning deliverables and community based project goals.
