Inviting your little one to do more by themselves can feel intimidating at first (for you both) but the benefits are well worth it!

When you offer developmentally-appropriate ways to explore and make choices, you support your child’s competence and curiosity

NEW GROUP IN JUNE

Come collaborate, connect, and unravel with us! Bring your existing skills and discover new ones as we explore fiber arts such as finger weaving, God’s eyes, and knitting

Each group will center around a theme that reflects both personal and collective identity, inviting us to learn not only traditional handiwork but also more about ourselves and one another

Fiber arts have long supported self-sufficiency, mindfulness, emotional regulation, resilience, connection, and a sense of belonging

Join this rich lineage as we engage in the ancestral practices of tying, weaving, and threading—together in community—while experimenting, discovering, and growing

Open to ages 8 and up, this group embraces a village-minded, ecosystemic approach. Held at Inspiration Point Park in Denver

Calling all rising stars! In this imaginative and empowering group, participants will build confidence, boost self-esteem, and explore their creative side through movement, play, and theatrical expression—all inspired by the themes and characters of Wicked.

Through guided activities like role-play, choreography, and character exploration, kids will “try on” different parts of themselves in a safe and supportive space. They’ll even create their own magic wands, symbolizing the unique magic each holds inside.

This group will help young individuals:

Strengthen self-expression and confidence
Form new friendships and build community
Develop creative coping skills
Embrace their authentic selves

Together, we’ll explore powerful themes from Wicked—like friendship, identity, and what it really means to be “good”—while dancing, laughing, reflecting, and growing along the way. Join us and defy expectations, onstage and within yourself!

Co-regulation occurs when your child tunes in to your regulated state, which allows them to move out of their dysregulation, and find a state of calm for themselves

Want to learn how this is applied in the moment? Register for our online parenting class, led by Somatic Counselor, Shannon Boarman, MA, LPCC
