This workshop led by Margot Henderson and Susanne Olbrich is an invitation to explore the theme of "Homecoming" and what it means for everyone of us. Creative writing and music improvisation will be sources of inspiration and means of expression at the same time. Gentle movement practices facilitate coming home to the body and moving from DOING to BEING. We become receptive for music and words to emerge. Margot and Susanne encourage experimentation, aiming to inspire confidence in your own voice and creative process. Everyone welcome — no previous experience in music or writing necessary! Please bring along musical instruments, pen and paper.
