dance•werking (Food Justice Summit: From the Ground Up—Unearthing Root Causes)
In partnership with Ph Copeland

Food justice is a justice of the body: the individual body, and its connections within and to the body of the community. Just as we bring awareness and mindfulness to our food journeys, from the individual to the system level, we benefit from growing in awareness of the connections between our mind|body; between us and others; and between us and the systems in which we operate. dancewerking provides the space for an embodied exploration of collaboration, leadership and connection. Prime your mind with new ways of thinking—inspired by new ways of moving. Bring your increased awareness of your own style and collaborative potential back to your team or organization through facilitated conversation and reflective practice.
