about
This summer camp was specifically designed for artists, facilitators, therapists, healers, creative practitioners, teachers, community activists who want to skill up and develop their own unique and original method on the intersection of art, healing, and community. In this both theory, method, and practice oriented summer camp you will gain tools, skills, and experiences in designing your own retreat/workshop, holding a safe space, supporting a group process, and individual unfolding.

I will also introduce you to the three main components of the "School of Disobedience" method:
- somatic practice & body-work ;
- alternative pedagogy with creativity & grounding exercises ;
- immersive multi-sensory experiences & community rituals.
During four days, we will explore together how to:
- build safety, say "no", set and respect boundaries ;
- maintain a horizontal structure and judgment-free environment ;
- develop other's imagination, spontaneity, and creativity ;
- encourage self-acceptance and self-liberation towards empowerment ;
- facilitate feedbacking, witnessing, and group discussion ;
- write your own creativity and grounding exercises ;
- be always calm and prepared (eg. react to oversharing...) ;
- sign and protect your own method, discuss about copyright, authorship, ownership ;
- imagine immersive multi-sensory experiences (participatory performances, rituals, ceremonies, interactive dispositives...) ;
- create and hold spaces (design rooms, develop your own method, creative or healing practice...) ;
- build communities (around events, workshops, collaborations, festivities, social activities...).
