Her unique approach will help you find your unique signature, or expand your concept of it. Wherever you are on your journey as a musician or creator, regardless of genre or arts discipline, this retreat will unlock the true artist within. Participate in a groundbreaking process that taps into your authentic creativity and expands your horizons. Unearth ideas and sounds of all kinds on 'inspiration walks' throughout Breno, gallery tours, and other unique excursions. The group will refine their skills and work together towards a mutual goal: spontaneous creation.

Creativity and Improv Retreat

July 17-31, 2023 Breno, Italy

Come on a creative holiday retreat with me in Italy this July!!

For the first time, I am guiding a group of the curious and the creative on a journey into the heart of creativity and finding one’s own inner muse (the muse lives within us, they are not external, although we gather externally the energy we need to create internally!)

Not only will you share two beautiful weeks of incredible food, majestic walks in the Alps, Italian language lessons, daily meditations, but also be immersed into my ‘Seeds of Creativity’ course and ‘Spontaneous Creations’ ensemble! As a musician I will also offer 'The Creative Performer' which explores our heightened choice making and creating a unique sound signature, and I will also be featuring the innovative and transformative, Alice Kay Kanack's 'Creativity Ability Development Method (CAD)' for all levels of experience. 

We will be highly experimental and free form, curating our experience as we go, finding where our ideas are emanating from, exploring our own ‘cycle of creativity’, consistently ‘making something out of nothing’ and being open to everything around us as inspiration for ‘what comes next’.

Just bring your curiosity and energy, along with an instrument if you are a performer, a writing pad if you are a writer, your dance attire if you are a choreographer or dancer, your open mind if you are a novice creator or just want to find out more about living your life through the creative lens.
