Write Your Heart Out
with Danielle Riccardi and Jay Erickson

Poetry as a practice for connecting with your emotional body and moving energy 

Join Danielle Riccardi and Jay Erickson, two local semi-pro published writers for a workshop designed to unleash your inner poet. We will use an adaption of the “Journal Ladder” process to start simple and small and build to an expression that allows for writing to be a release, healing, insight, or sense-making. 

We will explore the yoga of poetry and how a poem, like a physical form, can constellate and contain a certain shape of energy and how the music and imagery and vast permission of poetry is nothing to fear or avert but a vast playground and dance floor for all those who have language. 

Come with curiosity, courage and comfortable clothes. And alliteration.
