Training from the Network by Marjon van Opijnen and Sophia van Ruth | 

When was the last time you approached a serious issue playfully?

‘Huh?’ you may think…

Play allows us to open up to new experiences, to tap into our curiosity and find intuitive and embodied answers to our challenges. Play can be both serious and fun-loving, but always with a sense of lightness.

As a fundamental learning tool in a complex world, play offers many things, it:

  • awakens a side of yourself you may have forgotten
  • energises and relieves tension
  • opens a door to your intuition
  • encourages joy and ease
  • liberates creative possibilities
  • allows failing with flair & rebounding with style

Join us and let your dreams, desires, ideas or challenges dissolve into a collective play session. You might be surprised what new insights it yields, and at the very least you will share a delicious playful afternoon with others.

You are welcome to bring an issue that you would like a new perspective on to the workshop, but you can also just play with everyday stories from your life and use the session to reclaim your playful self. You will go home with some simple practices to bring more play into your life and work.
