Fear to Fire: Igniting Passion & Power in Your Creative Process

Join us in person in Beverly Hills OR from the comfort of your own home on zoom!

This workshop is designed to help artists transform their relationship with emotional energy, focusing on fear as a dynamic and essential source of creativity, vitality, and inspiration. Instead of avoiding fear, trying to overcome it or allowing it to shut them down or shrink their expression, participants will learn to engage with fear differently—letting it flow through the body as a powerful, liberating force.

Through guided practices, they’ll learn how they typically hold or stop the flow of fear in the body and how to release that tension, reclaiming parts of themselves and expanding their creative power, allowing fear to energize and enhance their work.

When fear is allowed to move freely, it transforms from a perceived block into a wellspring of strength, clarity, and passion. They will leave with renewed authenticity, freedom, and passion for their creative process.

What you will learn:

• How to work with emotional energy, as a body.

• How to deepen your ability to meet yourself and hold your experience.

• How to recognize moments of choice and expand your capacity to make those moves.

• A clearer understanding of how you get stuck and how to free yourself in a physical, tangible, realistic way.

Workshop Flow:

• Exploring Fear:

  • Discover how fear manifests in your creative process (e.g., anxiety, procrastination, avoidance, self-doubt).

  • Journal and discuss how fear limits you and your expression, and how that happens in the body.

  • Opening up the subject of emotional power, that emotions are just energy in the body that you can learn to work with.

• Body-based Practices:

  • Experience how emotional energy either moves in the body as flow, or how your contract around it.

  • Learn physical tools to release the effort against fear and access its potency.

• Embodied Movement Practice to Transform Fear:

  • Work with a specific reaction to fear in your creative process or life.

  • Through movement, breath, body awareness, and guidance learn to shift that stuck energy into creative power.

  • Learn to trust yourself. 

•  Integration:

  • Reflect and share insights.

  • Leave with tangible tools to keep exploring fear as a potent emotion energy for your creative life.

This workshop invites artists to embrace fear as a part of the body’s wisdom and power. By learning to engage with fear somatically, artists gain an empowered relationship to emotional energy, opening doors to deeper creativity, authenticity, and passion.

What if you could change your relationship to your emotions, especially fear?

What if you had embodied tools for meeting yourself in challenge that gave you more aliveness, creativity and freedom. What if you trusted yourself? Come find out what's possible!
