2025 Community Enrichment Events
September 19: Surviving Parenting and Teaching with Jaimen McMillan
In this lecture and participatory workshop with Jaimen McMillan, parents and teachers will share what has worked for them, and examine what has not worked. Then, using the discipline of Spacial Dynamics®, we will learn techniques to create spaces to meet the children in new ways. Through simple movements and interactive exercises we will see that space is more than the abstract distance that separates us, but can become a substance that can connect us. We will experience that creating the dynamic we long for may indeed involve changing ourselves. Come prepared to share, think, move, and laugh!
Founder and director of the Spacial Dynamics Institute and developer of the Spacial Dynamics® method, Jaimen McMillan has been leading trainings for movement professionals since 1980. In addition, he has a private practice, working with a wide spectrum of clients ranging from those with movement challenges, to top-level athletes and professional performance artists, all learning to enhance their skills and abilities. Mr. McMillan is a prominent lecturer in the areas of physical education, movement therapy, consults in the fields of business leadership and injury prevention, and is a recognized contributor to the world-peace movement.
