Leadership Vision
Through compassionate, thought- provoking movement, we must realize our own potential as individuals, as connections, as communities, and as a planet by remembering to say thank you and approaching everything with eyes full of wonder and an open heart.
Project Description
Be Compassion is a two- fold community engagement initiative working to address poverty and communication in the “Classic City”. Through eight weeks of dance and movement workshops, participants will enhance their emotional, physical, and social well- being. By thorough examination of the self, communities can further develop empathy, mindfulness, and a balance of humility and pride.
