Performance Art is what Candace calls the Embodiment Practice. An opportunity to creatively communicate your insight, perspective, and experience of "the heart of the matter", your truths! And, also, to make inquiries of "we, the people".
​ To do a little social research on the 'We'.
What do you care about? What stories, messages and questions live in your body?
​What is asking to come through you? How does it want to come through?
 What is it that you feel We, the People, need to hear? What stories need to be told?
How do they contribute to "...the wellness of the individual [you], the society and the Earth?"

​The structure of the Intensive
Weeks 1 through 4:
2x/week (except for 3rd week will only meet once)
3 Self-Exploration Witnessing sessions - these are one-to-one sessions. 
​2 Creative Communication Groups - meeting the group you will be performing/collaborating with

Weeks 5 through 8:
​2x/week (plus an additional meeting in week 8 for the performance(s))
4 Creative Communication Groups (in which you would practice with the group the expansion of what we are discovering in the one-to-one S.E.W.ing sessions) 
3 sessions focused on putting a final performance art piece together with the group

​Culmination:
A Performance Art Piece - "Women, Women, Truth and Rhythm"
 weekend of the 8th (possibly 9th) week, 2 showings
It will be an ensemble piece that consists of a series of solo pieces woven together with some collaboratively generated material. All of it will stem from the participants' personal explorations in the Self-Exploration Witnessing and Creative Communication sessions.

Integration:
Week 9
this is the final gathering in which we share about our performance experiences and vision going forward with this embodiment practice
