Join HFTC for our second writing workshop led by Dr. Shiarnice Burton in collaboration with Inprint.
The way your body moves tells a story. Your outside speaks to what is going on inside.
In this high-energy, interactive workshop, students use movement as a doorway into storytelling. Before writing a single word, participants explore emotions, memories, and personal experiences through guided exercises—moving like weather, carrying invisible objects, and shifting energy levels.
Each activity helps students notice how posture, rhythm, space, and gesture express feelings and ideas. Then, they translate those sensations into vivid written stories and reflections.
By engaging the body first, this workshop lowers writing anxiety, builds emotional awareness, and helps young writers find an authentic voice.
