Join the Multi-Level training group for one weekend workshop with visiting trainer, Chris Hosking, and Cher Williscroft, focusing on production methods.
Nb. People who enrol in the 2022A Year-Long Multi-Level Psychodrama Training Programme will automatically be enrolled in all 3 weekend workshops and supervision – they do not need to enrol separately in 2022B Weekend 2 workshop with Chris Hosking/Cher Williscroft.
Focus of workshop:
We will put our attention on the whole spectrum of production techniques and their crisp application in psychodrama, sociodrama, sociometry and role training. We will practice producing dramatic moments from your being and feeling body with an artistic flow, becoming more finely tuned moment by moment. Let’s surprise ourselves and others with our playful spirit, and fluidity as an antidote to over-using our intellect and becoming too serious.
An expanded approach to production by the director, protagonist and audience enables the protagonist to immediate warm up to the enjoyment of living, to their abilities and to what is possible in the present as well as in the future. Come prepared to display the systems we are in, bringing our awareness to the influences from both inside and outside our group. You will receive supervision of your application of the whole range of psychodrama production methods in 1 to 1, family or group settings.
Who can attend?
This weekend workshop is suitable for people who wish to apply the psychodramatic methods of group work, psychodrama sociodrama, sociometry and role training in their work and life. With two trainers, this workshop will be structured to meet the needs of the different levels of experience of participants.
If you are new to psychodrama, have not trained with us before or are returning after a long break from training, please contact us for a training conversation prior to enrolling to ensure you have the psychodrama experience needed to enter a training programme and our training programme will be a good match for you.
