Workshop: Embodied storytelling with Jo Blake

A professional workshop exploring a range of approaches and processes for working with body and movement within storytelling.

Information

“What you say, you say in a body; you can say nothing outside this body. You must awaken while in this body, for everything exists within it”

— The Gospel of Philip, 2nd century CE

As storytellers, we can sometimes forget that our bodies speak as loudly as our words, and that there is so much play, depth and creativity to be found through noticing how we move. In this workshop, we will explore a range of approaches and processes for working with body and movement within storytelling. The emphasis is on learning through embodied exploration. Bring your questions, your wonderings, your limitations and capacities, and let’s see what happens.

What you will need:

A story! Please come with a myth, fairytale or folk tale in mind.
Wear comfy, loose clothing that you are happy moving in.
