Sometimes feelings are hard to explain with words, but your body already knows how to show them. We will learn more about dance/movement by engaging in a few movement-based games. Movement helps us understand the feelings we experience even when we can’t find the words, helping us learn more about ourselves and having fun in the process.

A mantra is a short, positive phrase that you repeat to yourself. The more you repeat it, the more likely it is to become an ingrained belief. During this workshop, we will go through a mantra-card exercise that provides tools you can use to strengthen your sense of self-worth and manage your emotions.

The end of the school year can be rough! We will explore how music can help increase your focus on homework, including studying for exams and completing projects.
