Developmental Transformations (DvT) Workshop

The Montreal DvT website describes DvT as a playful, embodied method that increases spontaneity and creativity as well as improving one's ability to relate with others. DvT is based on the principle that all life is unstable and instead of trying to create a false impression of stability, we practice going with the flow and embrace the instability of being. DvT can be used for both therapeutic and life practice purposes.

Workshop Details: For this particular DvT workshop we will begin with a brief intro and a short warmup. Then the main part of the workshop will involve a mixture of facilitated one-on-one and group activities, interspersed with time for written and imagistic reflection. The workshop will take place on Thursday April 15th 2021, from 7-9pm EST. Tickets cost $25. Our workshop will cap at 15 participants, so tickets are limited as well. Please contact The Deep Play Institute for sliding scale options if needed.  A Zoom link will be provided to all participants the week prior to the workshop.
