Leaders
Cynthia Winton-Henry
Cynthia Winton-Henry, M.Div., co-founded InterPlay and Body Wisdom, Inc., with Phil Porter. Her interest in supporting body and soul led her to curate the Hidden Monastery Online Dance Chapels and courses for those seeking the spiritual intelligence needed for our time at cynthiawinton-henry.com.. As an artist, auhtor and mentor, she can be found on Substack at The Dancing Center where her research into "what the body wants" in community arts, shelters, churches, businesses, classrooms, and everyday life led her to create the somatic curricula she needs to address racism, leadership for the Earth, and the Arts of Ensoulment. Featured on the Body Intelligence Summit, Spiritual Directors International, and as a credential facilitator for the Sacred Dance, her publications include What the Body Wants; Dance - A Sacred Art: Discovering the Joy of Movement as Spiritual Practice, Chasing the Dance of Life: A Faith Journey, and The Art of Ensoulment: How to Create From Body and Soul..
