Applying InterPlay

InterPlay has been applied around the world in corporations, non-profit organizations, healthcare settings, schools, colleges and universities, mental health organizations, and many other settings.

Some of our InterPlay Twin Cities Teachers and Leaders specialize in creating custom applications of InterPlay in different community, health and business settings.

These InterPlay experts have led workshops for:

cancer survivors
people with eating disorders
learners in public schools and colleges
artists
creative writers
dancers
church communities and clergy
creative entrepreneurs

Our experts combine their broader skills and talents with InterPlay techniques to tailor the experience to the specific needs of organizational development, innovation, or team dynamics, as well as to specific issues around creativity, embodiment, loss and grief and other community health issues.

Many of InterPlay Twin Cities' talented presenters are also available for keynote presentations.
