SMALL GROUP COACHING WORKSHOP
The summer mini group coaching workshop is under way! If you'd like to receive information about the next session simply complete the contact form here. When it's available, I'll send dates, prices, and everything you need to know to register.
Program description: In this small group series, we'll explore the creative process from idea to implementation, including wooing the creative muses, the proper care and feeding of ideas, and gathering the courage to embark on the journey. You'll leave with a clearer understanding of where you want to go, suggestions for your next steps, and a supportive community to walk the path with you.

IMPROV FOR REAL LIFE

• Tuesday, October 17, 2023
• 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm
• Winton Branch Library
• Click here for info and to register.

Learn how applying the improv principle of “Yes And” to everyday life can build confidence, foster better communication, and help you more fully embrace the present moment. We'll play games similar to “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” as we make mistakes and have fun in a supportive, can't fail environment. It's improv fun for real life!

Central Creatives is located at 349 West Commercial Street, in the Piano Works Mall, East Rochester, NY, 14445, right off 490. Park at the end of the plaza near Ferrari Pizza and enter through the RED single door between Weaving Arts Guild and Penn Fair Golf, right next to the antiques shop. Follow the hallway and take the elevator or stairs to the second floor. If you're there for an event, signs will direct you to the Gallery Entrance (near Roc Star Academy), which is the best way to get to my studio (#25). When you get there, text me at the number posted on the door and someone will let you in.
Outside of event times, my studio is open by appointment only.
