in Oakland!
Coke Tani, Amy Shoemaker, and Gretchen Wegner

Oakland, CA

Saturday morning through Sunday noon, March 16-17, April 13-14, May 18-19, June 15-16

The InterPlay Life Practice Program is an active, creative way to lead your own life. Immerse yourself in the system of InterPlay—ideas and practices that can move you from where you are to where you would like to be.

  • Unlock the wisdom of your body!
  • Have more fun!
  • Decrease stress and increase ease.
  • Make wiser, more grounded decisions.
  • Thrive by getting body, mind, heart and spirit to all work together.
  • Find easy ways to change what you want to change in your life: relationships, work, community, home, spirit, body image…
  • Discover your hidden resources.

You will be meeting regularly over a period of time with a group of fellow InterPlayers. You may use this supportive, affirming community to help you shape your life in ways that are best for you. You will get individual attention from the Program leaders who will help you identify your personal desires and intentions.

For March 16-17, April 13-14, May 18-19 and June 15-16, the weekend schedule will be:

Saturday 9:30am-12pm, 1-4pm, 5:30-7:30pm

Leaders
Coke Tani
Coke is a body memoirist, dancer, soul care provider, and teacher/facilitator. Coke has co-led InterPlay's Life Practice and Leader Training Programs, and served as InterPlay's Liaison to Leaders of Color. Currently, she leads InterPlay in a variety of in-person and online settings, and mentors leaders-in-training. She also offers private 1:1 focus sessions (aka embodied spiritual direction), valuing all the ways this practice decolonizes the ways we know and live. She serves InterPlay's Racial Equity & Transformation efforts through its Culture & Curriculum Pod and its Advisory Council. In former years, Coke was a community-based therapist, solo performer, and Wing It! ensemble member.
Amy Shoemaker

Amy is the Bay Area Regional Coordinator for InterPlay, an InterPlay teacher, Wing It! Member, and Spiritual Director living in San Francisco. She discovered InterPlay as a student at Pacific School of Religion and immediately took to it - like a fish to water. Amy is available for workshops and retreats nationwide.

Gretchen Wegner
Gretchen Wegner is a teacher, performer, and academic life coach who delights in helping others find expressive freedom. When she first came to InterPlay she was a burned out brainiac with degrees in Intercultural/Post-Colonial Performance Studies and Education (phew!); now she is an impassioned storyteller, dancer and teacher (yay!). Her warm presence and structured classes make the technique of InterPlay fun, accessible and transformative. Gretchen teaches the Tuesday night drop-in class at InterPlayce and performs with Wing-It Ensemble.
