Workshops
Picture
Contact Gwen to brainstorm about a single workshop, a series with or without a flute/piccolo class.

The benefit of a flute/picc class is that the concepts are applied directly, in a safe space, to the embodied mind, resonant sound and music storytelling.

​ In person or on zoom or in combination.

Series

6 sessions of MWL fundamentals  includes weekly 15 minute recorded tutorial, with resources, journal, prompts and weekly live zoom class.

  5. Integrated Awareness of Body, Brain, Breath & Boundaries
  6. Inspired Awareness of Body, Brain, Breath & Boundaries

​These sessions create an essential foundation and common language, upon which we build.

6 Sessions of Musician Intuition - we explore Boundaries, Core Values, Self Compassion, Flow, Teamwork, Leadership and how it directly applies to your relationship to your roles, your relationship to yourself, your instrument and the music. We explore how those principles apply to the stories we empower in our own mind-body, and the Universal stories we tell in Music. 

Leadership from within Series - To live from a place of alignment with ones’ core values, with a healthy ego and internal structure in order to receive feedback and not take it personally. To develop and create an Action Plan -  execute, evaluate and experiment with it, be willing to change it  - all in service of a healthy work environment and community.

Trust container and Team building 
The practice of empathy, recovery, cultivating a creative work culture on stage and behind the scenes. Honouring both the vision and the necessary executive and mental skills.
​
Transactions, Transitions and Transformation 
​Observe the resonance of each. Mindful of power and privilege, choose what you and your organization absorb for the highest good.

Train, Treasure, and Truth
We train in a methodology in order to build up automaticity - to build up trust within ourselves when we go on stage and are vulnerable.  There comes a time in the artists and leaders' internal life where we recognize that there are many paths and menthodigies within the labyrinth of Musicianship.

The training and treasures we've created thus far will see us through the experimenting and implementation of new ideas. It builds confidence as we try out courage and compassion. It builds resilience when we fail and try again. It builds resonance as we hear "Truth."
