I spent all day dancing, moving, talking and crying with an amazing group of women. <\/p>\n<p>The workshop, Courageous Creativity, is all about unblocking your creativity. Tatiana Zamir, a trained dance and massage therapist, encouraged this through simple breathing and body awareness exercises. We also thought back to time whens our creativity was not valued or recognized. And then we danced that feeling of unworthiness out, and then danced in a way that reclaimed our sense of ideas and voices mattering. It was therapeutic and healing, especially since moving and being in your body is an art form that many of us don&#8217;t tap into. Our bodies retain all the stress we put it through, both physically and emotionally, so it only makes sense for us to turn back into our bodies for answers and guidance. <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3241\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3241\" style=\"width: 625px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"3241\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/2015\/08\/20\/notes-from-the-6-train-finding-exploring-courageous-creativity\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2048,1836\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;A little solitary movement after the workshop. &lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o-1024x918.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o-1024x918.jpg\" alt=\"A little solitary movement after the workshop. \" width=\"625\" height=\"560\" class=\"size-large wp-image-3241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o-1024x918.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o-300x269.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o-624x559.jpg 624w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o-24x22.jpg 24w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o-36x32.jpg 36w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o-48x43.jpg 48w, https:\/\/blog.fitnyc.edu\/admissions\/files\/2015\/08\/11875196_10153566988596908_5025586806130686019_o.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3241\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A little solitary movement after the workshop.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Dance is something I love.
