HORSE, TAIJI BALL, & ART CONNECTION for Teens

This program offers a combination of a fun way to practice Zhineng Qigong using a ball, an individual guided time with a horse, and free time with art suggestions and materials. The program takes place in an outdoor, natural setting. The goal is for you to reconnect with nature and with yourself through relaxation that Qigong with Taiji Ball can bring, and the powerful effect of interacting with a really gentle horse.

ART EVOLUTION

is a time in space that is inspired by my way of seeing art as a message and a hope to make a difference in people's lives. These workshops are about collaborative creation of Art mostly, but also an opportunity to take a break from your daily life and be in the present moment.

COLLABORATIVE ART

Collaborative Art , or working together on the same piece of art, is a way to learn about ourselves, to create bonds with one another, and to benefit from each other’s unique ways of doing art.

RELAXATION

I believe that the state of relaxation and the feeling of compassion/gratitude/caring for others are ways to have an impact on your well being by providing stress relief and more. They also build highways to intuition and creativity. We use gentle movement and short meditations/visualizations to promote this state of being.

FIELD TRIPS

Visits to contemporary art exhibitions are organized in order to get inspiration and to start a “popcorn discussion” (brainstorming) about what art is, what messages can be communicated through art, and what message you want to share.

WHAT

The art medium and themes will differ each time - portraits, landscapes, abstract art - 2D, 3D, sound, technology and also everyday life objects... Students’ ideas will be welcome as well. These will always unfold with the collabarotive art process.

WHERE

The workshops happen at a private home in Bethesda, MD. Exact address is given upon registration.
