Workshops
Over the years, I have developed and facilitated a wide range of workshops for a variety of audiences. Below, you’ll find a sample of my work. Each of these offerings is currently available, and similar content can be tailored to you or your group’s unique needs.
Letters, Numbers, Shapes, and… Colors?: Racial Consciousness in Early Childhood
Using current research, this workshop explores the relationships between general developmental milestones and the development of racial awareness in early childhood. Participants will walk away with clear strategies for talking with children about race at various stages.
Duration: 120 minutes
Format: Virtual or in-person
Ideal Capacity: 15-30 participants
Beyond Freeze Dance: Movement, Trauma, and Learning
Encouraging kids to move their bodies is about more than “getting the wiggles out!” Through experiential practice, this workshop invites participants to re-imagine all the ways movement supports children’s learning, and provides easy ways to begin integrating movement into your day.
Duration: 90 minutes
Format: In-person preferred, virtual available
Ideal Capacity: 15-150 participants
Transformative Justice and Parenting: Discipline and Relationship in a Revolutionary World
This workshop supports adults in reshaping our approaches to discipline by de-centering punishment and moving toward relationship. Participants receive a cursory introduction to Transformative Justice, discuss and experiment with anti-carceral parenting practices, and (hopefully) begin to heal.
Duration: 75 minutes (extended 3.5 hour version available for select audiences)
Format: In-person preferred, virtual available
Ideal Capacity: 15-60 participants
I also facilitate retreats and strategic planning processes.
