My experience is that every human being has their own set of guides on spirit side that help us navigate life. By having a better understanding of the different types of guides and how you can directly connect with them, you can flow through life with greater ease.

In this workshop, we will:

* Learn the different level and dimensions of guides
* Understand how guides give us signs and directions for living on Earth
* Practice exercises to help you connect with your own guides
* Teach you how to find out who your specific guides are
* Leave the workshop knowing at least one of your guides' names

The first workshop was such a success, we're doing it again! Come be a part of this growing workshop for self-identified butch women or FTM! In this six-week workshop, you will build a three to five-minute performance piece incorporating a strip tease that reflects your individual attributes. Create a masculine strip tease or go to the complete other realm and do something crazy feminine or maybe totally in drag or incredibly androgynous. Or perhaps your piece has nothing to do with gender at all. There are no limits, no stereotypes. It's burlesque. Anything goes. Using my original archetypal energy work, (combining tools of physical theatre, archetypal energy, intuition, character exploration and imagery), you create an original performance piece, receive feedback and learn how to further develop the piece. You then perform the piece in class (and on stage if you want). Participants of all backgrounds are welcome and previous performance experience is not a requirement. Opportunity to perform in Dixon Place's HOT! Festival in July! (Not a requirement for the workshop). Please note this builds from week to week, and you get the most out of it if you are available for all dates. Please see Teaching on this website for Victoria's bio and testimonials.

Develop your own performance piece using Victoria Libertore's unique method of archetypal energy work.

In this five-week workshop, you will learn a foundation for creating an original performance using tools of physical theatre, archetypal energy, intuition, character exploration and imagery. Each participant creates original material and builds on it from week to week. There will be group exercises as well as time for each person to present work. All types of performers are welcome: solo, collaborations, text-based and movement-based. The workshop will be a safe and warm environment for you to express your creativity and walk away with performance-ready material. All levels of experience are welcome. Whether you are a novice that is new to making your own creative work or a pro that wants to refine your skills, you will benefit from these tools and from watching each others' journeys as artists in action. Maximum of eight participants.
