Saturday, February 13, 9:30am to 4:30pm
"On days when I am undone, dissolved and humbled by my human limits,
I am blessed by those who let me lean hard on their kindness."
(Cynthia Winton-Henry)
What can InterPlay teach us about kindness? We were raised to be kind and considerate to others. Many of us also make an effort to be kind and considerate to ourselves. Yet with all this effort, we often find ourselves teetering between guilt and exhaustion. Is it possible to bring some fun, balance, wisdom, and grace back into the equation? Through InterPlay’s gentle and accessible forms based in movement, voice, story and stillness, we will playfully explore the physicality of leaning into kindness and what our bodies can teach us. Join us.

As a recovering serious person, I consider InterPlay my 12-step program and my life practice for having more ease and grace. I've been InterPlaying for 27 years and have watched the blooming and spread of InterPlay all over the world with gratefulness and delight.
For the past 13 years I've been immersed in the development and growth of the Leader Training Program and currently serve as the program coordinator. I love offering people the "big body" tools of InterPlay for telling their stories, especially people on the margins of our communities. I am also passionate about embodied spirituality, engaging people in prayer and worship forms that include and honor the body. It has been an amazing experience to participate in and teach InterPlay in many places around the world.
Currently the Leader Training Program is being reshaped to integrate Racial Equity and Transformation into all aspects of InterPlay leader training. This is truly an exciting and exhilerating time to be part of the world-wide community of InterPlay!
