Movement is no longer mere expression. It's a form of community activism that is beginning to influence how we organize ourselves. Those who know how to incorporate body wisdom into group dynamics are taking the lead as we gradually move from old models of cog-in-the-wheel actions to an era focused on the development and exchange of knowledge - a knowledge society. Michael Wimmer, Director of EDUCULT, Institute for the Mediation of Arts and Sciences in Vienna, shares that "The 'knowledge society' requires competencies such as quick perceptivity, planning competencies, convincing presentation and negotiation skills, and the social and emotional know-how to behave adequately in a multi-cultural environment." Sounds like InterPlay's skill set to me.
I am thrilled that InterPlay is part of this grand evolution. InterPlayers are beginning to understand the best ways for body wisdom to guide us to our highest good. If joy were the only outcome it would be worth it. But when I check out the growing world of InterPlay online, I know something much bigger is at work. If you check InterPlay's website, you'll see that this movement is widespread, and there are some wonderful tales being told,
Mass movements need to be smart. That's why we're testing an InterPlay community development toolkit workshop at InterPlayce this week. Wheeeeeeee. I'll keep you posted.
