Climb into Your Embodied Presence.
Your word choice helped me expand into life-affirming ways of relating to my body. This was especially important now since I have some injuries. I loved passing the glow ball back and forth; the noticings were rich. The loving ‘yes’ to welcome all of me in this space felt like a gift!
I arrived tired from a long day, but my body felt alive and buzzing at the end of the experience. Such a safe, nonjudgmental space to play! The true gifts from my day came to me—that I had touched people and been touched by them. I felt my heart expand.
Introductory Class
Curious about this play thing? An introductory class is the perfect way to experience it for yourself. All classes introduce participants to the InterPlay system of movement, storytelling, and vocal improvisation to foster your unique expression as well as connection, energy and ease.
Our introductory Invitation to Glow class was received so well, we’re extending the bounty with a three-part drop in series. Step into one or more on-line classes to take a nourishing pause and discover how wise, physical play replenishes your wholeness and vitality. Experience the ease of moving gently with your body’s wisdom, listening to your inner compass, and experiencing your own unique GLOW. Rather than draining energy, play restores and sustains it—offering you a powerful resource for resilience, joy, and well-being.
What participants said:
My Glow reminds me I can have this 24/7!
I want to hang on to this feeling as long as I can.
I feel like I’m at a Glow party!

If you find yourself always having things handled, figuring things out, and taking an enormous share of responsibility to get things done then you know it is exhausting. You may feel your energy depleted, your sense of joy and vitality weighed down, or perhaps even broken. As a heart-centered warrior, you love substance and care about lifting others up. You want others to be happy but you want to be happy too.
If you are like me, you want More. You want purpose and Ease; fulfillment and Play. You want to feel your strength but your Softness also. This course helps you move more authentically and powerfully in the world with greater ease. In this six-week experiential course you:
Find your natural Wholeness Connect to your real Desires, and Move from your unique Power center

In the process you explore InterPlay forms, journaling prompts and guided meditations to create a unique gesture ritual that you helps you feel and sense your tenderness, your wholeness and your desires. You also discover a necessary boundary or two through the play.
