Grace, Play and Rest
Meg MacLeod and
Maria Thomas
Asheville, NC
Friday, May 20, 6:30 - 8:30 pm
At this playshop, InterPlay forms will be used to explore and "mess around with" the theme of Grace, Play and Rest.
Each of us has likely experienced that when we take the time during our day to come back to
ourselves and rest inside, even if just for 3 timed minutes or 3 full breaths, that what comes to us to do is more fulfilling, more "right" and brings us more comfort.
Cost: $10 - $20 sliding scale

Leaders
Meg MacLeod
Meg MacLeod has been leading InterPlay classes and workshops since 1998: in the USA, the Netherlands, Scotland, Germany and Switzerland – in on-going classes, school teachers trainings, camp counselors, university dance and drama students, and at birthdays community celebrations and conferences. She has directed and performed in numerous choreographed and InterPlay (improvisational) concerts.
Some of her main influencers are the Work of Byron Kate, her 12-step recovery and Arnold Mindell's ideas on quantum physics, the Tao and the Dreaming body.
Earlier years.
As school teacher, she regularly directed performances starring the children or brought her musician friends to her school to perform for the kids. In the mid- late-80s as an artist-in-residence, she developed and solo-performed five interactive concerts using music, stories and dance/movement to teach social studies and ecology in 24 US states, Germany and the UK.
As a community activist for Walkable Communities in the 90s she produced several highly successful conferences and two organizations until becoming physically and emotionally 'burned-out'. She credits recovery of her senses and health to InterPlay and other systems and loves to share the playfulness and trust in her intuition and in life she has recovered.
Current passions are music and song-writing, InterPlaying and becoming more fluent in the Dutch language.
