Harbor Currents–Oct. 10, 2012

Dancing Your Shame into Joy
Attend “Dancing Your Shame into Joy: Re-Claiming Your Noble Gifts,” a free expressive arts workshop led by social worker Claudia Gold, from 2 to 4:30 p.m. Oct. 14, at Building “H” of Angels Gate in San Pedro.

The workshop will include some expressive arts including visual art and body-mind exercises.

Gold is standing for the 90 percent of women, who in a study by researcher
Brene Brown, said they felt ashamed of their bodies. Women have been put into straight-jackets about their appearance, few of them fit, and then women are persuaded that being in them is their agenda. For whose benefit?
As a social worker who has taught 30 college classes locally and worked for 12 years at Long Beach Memorial, she is also offering tools for these women.
