WHAT IS INTERPLAY?
An easy path to an
embodied life through affirmation, community
and play! Interplay is a philosophy and set
of simple, body-centered activities that creates
art from life in solo, partner, and group
play. It invites us to make stuff up in the
moment, to have fun, laugh with others, discover
ourselves, and claim body wisdom as a path
to having grace, ease, and fullness in our
lives. InterPlay emphasizes the power of affirmation
and re-teaches adults the ability to be spontaneous
that profound process of using ones
inner resources to interact with and enjoy
the world. It is accessible to people of all
ages and abilities and has been used with
folks from 5 to 85
