Teaching somatics for activists is an important part of our work. In Central and Eastern Europe and the Cacausus, social justice movements are undersupported in every way and, thanks to the culture of overwork and the continuous rise of extremist politics with increasingly repressive and violent tactics - also under stress! Somatics skills and practices help activists get more connected, centered and resilient. Our courses are held in nature, offering rest and regeneration. Please donate so we can share the magic of politicized somatics next month with participants who fight for health, respect, safety and freedom for all. Any amount is deeply appreciated!! https://gofund.me/c08ccf1f

Every emotion is a message reminding us that something is important to us. Perhaps you are overwhelmed by your emotions, or find them distant, hard to understand, or challenging to feel at all... Whatever the case, please join us to spend some time reflecting on what life taught us about how to be with our emotions, observe our current habits and practice some strategies to help us accept and befriend them as they are and honor the deeper values behind them - as always, through art, movement and somatics. We look forward to seeing you there!

Thanks to all the participants of last Friday's Reclaiming Vitality for your deep and colorful exploration of what it means to be my "self" to the fullest, and for sharing that self with each other to create a beautiful, surprising, rich and sometimes messy, risky, collective "us." We look forward to seeing you at the next Reclaiming Vitality on Thursday 12.6. - the theme is reveling in our aliveness and befriending our emotions.

Boundary work means expanding your own presence of self to be able to cherish and honor it, and remaining authentic as you contribute to an "us" with others in which trust and mutual support can happen. Getting skilled at community is the only way our world is going to survive the world's messes. Join us on Friday to explore more of how you want to be present in your own life and share with others. register: formnflow@gmail.com

Next Friday - BOUNDARIES! We look forward to meeting you again at Reclaiming Vitality to explore more around this rich topic! How can we reach for others while still staying present with ourselves? When we break the patterns that hold us back from respecting our own needs and sharing who we really are, we find so much potential for authentic connection to ourselves and others. Join us at 18:00 on 23.5 at DanceLAB for somatics, movement, art and community!

Thank you to everyone who joined Reclaiming Vitality last week to explore evolution and transformation. As Heraclitus said, the only constrant in life is change, so we spent our time together embracing it! We worked with clay to imagine the growth, unfolding, decay and rebirth of organic forms, and transformed accidental marks to images to stories with shared meaning. Thank you for bringing your rich imaginations, playfullness and openness to embrace the process!🐛🦋❤

When I was a full time Montessori teacher, parents sometimes sighed that the class photos didn’t show kids’ faces. We didn’t want to interrupt their precious concentration and preferred to show their joyful engagement in the work…At our Reclaiming Vitality workshop on 28.2, we recentered towards the arrival of spring with the help of all the greens possible, and it is lovely to experience that same joyful engagement here!

Join us on Friday for the first Creative Health networking meeting. Share your own and learn about others' experiences in youth-oriented care. We will brainstorm the possibilities of trauma-sensitive expressive arts-based interventions for young people. See you at Tvůrčí dům Elišky Peškové at 17:00!
Srdečně zveme na naše úvodní setkání iniciativy Kreativní zdraví, která má za cíl organizovat pravidelná setkávání a sdílení zkušeností profesionálů z pomáhajících a uměleckých profesí, kteří vnímají naléhavost sociálně-emocionální podpory dětí a dospívajících a smysl vidí v kreativním přístupu k takovému učení. Naším cílem je vytvořit prostor, kde bychom se mohli setkávat, sdílet, šířit osvětu, implementovat dobrou praxi a vést dialog s klíčovými institucemi.

Maintain mental hygiene with expressive arts therapy.
Find self-acceptance, authenticity, empowerment and healing in a safe therapeutic setting.
Glynis Hull-Rochelle & Laura Henderson are certified drama and art therapists. We aim to help people ride the waves of life’s instability. Some painful thoughts, feelings and memories are stored in our bodies and cannot be accessed or released solely with words. We offer a safe space for clients to play in a dynamic, embodied way, where logic is suspended and the inner voice can speak. By being able to express your stress with a caring witness through drama or art techniques, you can find relief, resilience and self-confidence.
We offer individual sessions for clients 5 years old and up, and run support and therapeutic groups for teens and adults. Glynis also offers parent coaching and family support, drawing on lessons learned through her long experience as a Montessori teacher and enriched by Nonviolent Communication concepts and Gottman’s emotion coaching. Since 2016, we have facilitated a support program for LGBTQIA+ youth.
Together we also offer fun and creative experiential workshops using movement, drama/play, art and discussion/reflection as our main modalities to explore the human condition and unlock our rich internal worlds. Topics range from understanding our strengths and guiding values to stating our limits, assertive communication, respectful relationships, and everything in between.
Who are Form & Flow? More about us.
No human lives in a vacuum. Everyone’s “personal” struggles are influenced by their familial, social, economic, cultural and political circumstances. We take this into account in our work with clients, honoring each individual’s unique and multilayered story. In a world increasingly under pressure, we are committed to utilizing the power of creativity to ignite individual and social transformation. In addition to personal struggles, as activists ourselves, we understand the complexity of collective action and how difficult it can be for individuals to stay sustainably engaged in long-term efforts to confront the themes that affect their lives.
Glynis (originally from the USA) has lived in Prague for 28 years. In addition to being a social-emotional educator and dramatherapist in local schools, she also teaches yoga and circus skills. Glynis believes in the power of social circus and has worked in this capacity with homeless, drug-dependent and incarcerated people as well as domestic violence survivors. She is the mother of two teenagers.
Laura is from the UK and has lived in Prague for 17 years. She is an art therapist and has worked with people with disabilities, senior citizens, and refugee survivors of torture. She is also a researcher at Charles University in the area of creative education. Laura has two children.
We can work in Czech or English and we offer sliding scale rates. Contact us at formnflow@gmail.com or write us here on FB to get more information about our services!
