PlayDates! was a project I did several years ago. No PlayDates! are currently scheduled, but please let me know if you are interested and I will add you to my contact list for future events.

An important part of lifelong play is stepping outside your comfort zone to try something new...an element of surprise. Typically, we've spent much of our adult lives avoiding trying things that we don't think we'll be good at. Since the beauty of play is that it is process-focused (instead of product-focused), no one who participates needs to be good at the activity.

For these reasons, I don't tell you exactly what we're going to be doing, but I will give you some information to help you decide which types of PlayDates! you'd like to participate in. Each PlayDate! has three scales: Messiness, Physicality, and Vulnerability.

2016 PlayDates!

PlayDate!: Explore Movement AND Creativity

When: TBD
Time: 7:00pm - 9:00pm
Place: 69th St. and Thunderbird, Scottsdale (address provided upon sign-up)
Participation Information (scale key):
Messiness = 5            Physicality = 3          Vulnerability = 4

In this PlayDate! We'll be moving and creating all to some fun, popular music. Hopefully the weather will cooperate, because this one will be outside in my backyard. Wear clothes you don't care about--everything SHOULD wash out, but be on the safe side and don't wear anything you really care about.
