Creative Movement

Core workshop 1

 

This is the Movement in Worship foundation course, it is suitable for all including beginners.

The uniqueness in which you have been created is a gift that you can give back to God in your worship.

This workshop is designed to explore body movement to its fullest potential. It aims to enable you to break out of the movement stereotypes that so often depict Christian dance.

Exercises enable you to discover and develop your Unique Movement Vocabulary. This is then developed using Dynamic Mass Sculpture to see a corporate expression emerge. DMS facilitates groups of people to move creatively together, demonstrating the unity we have in Christ. This often develops into intercessory and prophetic movement.

Imagination & Movement

‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’ – Acts 17:28

We are on this earth and yet we live in a spiritual reality which is greater. Using our imagination is key in exploring this. Our imagination also enables us to visualise and interpret what we read in the scriptures bringing them to life.

I am highly grateful for the inspiration I received from attending The Creative Well. Andy certainly draws his wisdom from the Lord above.  It is noticeable Andy is intimate with the presence of the Holy Trinity through Worship. His love flows from experience and knowledge to those who are eager to learn. I am looking forward to absorbing and releasing the following thread, The Creative Fountain, that Andy is mentoring next.
