F WORDZ WORKSHOP FOR WOMEN 6-7.30PM

You are invited to move, wiggle and dance your hearts out to great music and release all the tension from the last two years. Together as a group of women, we’ll explore sounds and words (swearing very welcome), and will talk about female focussed, taboo topics that matter to us. To close, we’ll spend a little time writing what we’ve seen, heard, felt, and what we think needs to be said.

This is a workshop to get active, release emotions and feel connected with yourself and other girls and women.

Who is this for?

Girls and women aged 14 - 84+, people who identify as female, sisters, mothers, daughters, grandmas & girlfriends. No dance or arts experience needed.

More information about Sam:

Hello! I'm Sam Gilroy, I'm an independent female Artist, Choreographer and Facilitator based in Southampton which has a rich, culturally diverse population of women and people who identify as female. Inspired to connect and create, I am reaching out to ask you to join me in the process I have developed working with non-dancers and professional artists on my feminist project titled: F WORDZ. We will explore ways to express our thoughts and experiences as girls and women to grow a community where we can talk freely, challenge our perceptions and find a place of acceptance and belonging.

This workshop and previous Wednesday Women conversations are supported by A Space Arts at God's House Tower.
