Ever been in a situation you didn\u2019t have the faintest idea how to get yourself out of? This session will take on novel experiences with a poetic twist. Photographs of people in precarious positions will be provided as writing prompts. Participants will be asked to imagine\/write the person in the photograph out of the precarious position. There will also be an optional spoken-word element in which volunteers will be talked into a pose that they, in turn, have to talk and\/or move themselves out of. Presenters Chelsea Cooper and Michelle Deschenes share more below:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Who should attend?<\/strong>
\nAnyone who enjoys yoga, creative writing, spoken word, and spending time getting out of precarious positions with BGSU Creative Writing alumni<\/p>\n

What can attendees expect from your workshop?<\/strong>
\nA limber mind and body<\/p>\n

Name one fun fact or bit of trivia about this session:<\/strong>
\nChelsea and Michelle met while working on their BFAs in Creative Writing. They also interned at MAR<\/em>. They graduated in 2003 and took a trip to Italy that summer. Neither one can find a single photo of them together…<\/p>\n

Quick! Summarize the benefits of this workshop in 10 words or fewer:<\/strong>
\nInspiration…flexibility…beginnings…endings…creativity…stretching…<\/p>\n

Any last words?<\/strong>
\n\u201cTo liberate the potential of your mind, body and soul, you must first expand your imagination. You see, things are always created twice: first in the workshop of the mind and then, and only then, in reality […] because anything you create in your outer world began as a simple blueprint in your inner world.\u201d ~Robin Sharma, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari<\/em><\/p>\n
