7 Day Santa Fe Retreat
Join award-winning writer/performer Ann Randolph for 7 days of writing and creating in the high desert of New Mexico. This retreat is taking place at the breathtakingly beautiful 30 acre Private Hacienda Linda in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
This very private estate offers stunning views of the Ortiz mountain range and the Sandia peak. Santa Fe is a short 25 minute drive where nightlife and culture abound.
This is a perfect retreat for those seeking to explore memoir, personal essay, solo performance, and self expression in a spectacular setting. This retreat is limited to 12 participants.
"As we write, we are both describing and deciding the direction that our life is taking. " Julia Cameron
This is an invitation for you to discover your own unique and powerful story and the profound transformation that occurs when speaking it out loud. You'll learn to trust your creative impulses, embracing all of who you are. By becoming the author of your own life and learning how to tell your own story, you will not only learn to craft your experience into a compelling narrative but you will also unleash a sense of purpose in your own life you never thought possible.
Through writing exercises, group discussion, and improvisation we will support one another in creating and speaking our stories.
Writing exercises to stimulate memory
Learning to structure the narrative in a compelling way
Discovering ways to create spontaneously
Overcoming performance anxiety
Tools to release yourself from the inner critic
Transforming your ideas/stories into performance
In addition to meeting daily for class, we will culminate the week with a student performance in a nearby Santa Fe venue.
Included in the cost is continental breakfast, healthy vegetarian and/or paleo lunches, entrance fees to Ojo Caliente Hot Springs, and a half hour private session with Ann Randolph before and after the workshop.
Lodging at the venue is not included and ranges from $25 a night ( sleeping bag) to $125 night for the master suite. You may also book your own lodging off site.
