Our week in Prince
Rupert really flew by! Lina and I enjoyed working with a wonderful group of
ladies at the Jim Ciccone Civic Centre this week. Exploring the town's little
hiking trails and thrift shops by day, our evenings were dedicated to sharing
movement and fun and we were happy that our group of participants were so keen
to express themselves. Over the course of the week they approached the creative
activities with a great spirit of play and openness, and favourites included
the impulse game (where we explored physical contact to inspire movement
initiation), and flocking (where we worked as a team to improvise in
unison). We also enjoyed hearing a bit about their lives here in Prince
Rupert, and it was neat to see their personal backgrounds come out in their
dancing. After saying our goodbyes to all the great folks at the Civic Centre,
Lina flew back to Vancouver on Saturday, and I boarded the bus from Prince Rupert to
Terrace- which was such a wonderfully scenic and peaceful journey.
Lina and I will meet
again in Stewart, but now, on to Kitimat! Caroline Liffmann and I are excited
to be working with the wonderful kids at Haisla Community School in Kitamat
Village next week. Looking forward to this next adventure…
