THIS COURSE IS FULL – COURAGE TO BE – Emerson, UK

with Vivian Gladwell and Ali Stockford

THIS COURSE IS FULL

The word “courage” comes from a root that means “heart.” Through clowning and connecting to our playful spirit we can develop and sustain, in ourselves and each other, the heart to be who we truly are, to trust life and ourselves. “Taking heart” is a profoundly inward process, and an invitation for overcoming the fears that block us from being fully present in the “Here and Now.” This course establishes the ground for all our work and is an essential first step before going on to more advanced courses.
The group is limited to 12

Facilitators:
