About
InterPlay is an active, creative way to unlock the wisdom of the body for everyone and every body.
“Twenty-two years ago I found InterPlay. And it was exciting and scary because of the invitation to just be myself, be applauded and affirmed and also to learn how there is wisdom inside my body that I can pay attention to and to be in the heart of a community of people playing, laughing, crying, telling their stories, taking the stuff of our lives which is hard, and sometimes creating art with it.” — Ginny Going
InterPlay brings play into our lives and reminds us that moving our bodies and telling our personal stories reconnects us to joy and self-discovery. As we embrace our creative expression, we develop our inner authority. We actively experience play through noticing, witnessing, stillness, movement, storytelling, and vocalization. At its foundation, InterPlay fosters a generosity of spirit, and we practice seeing the best in others.
As children, we took every chance to be playful. We had no fear of judgment about our curiosity and inventiveness. As we age we stick with what we are comfortable with and what we think is appropriate. Play reduces stress and helps us access subtle thoughts and emotions, so it is a cathartic means of self-exploration. By applying the principles of non-judgment and refraining from the pursuit of perfection, we enjoy the process rather than the product and embrace our imagination.
Each person chooses how much or how little to take part in based on their own comfort level.
