Using the tools of Shamanik Improv such as games, guided imagery, music, dance, masks, props, costumes, channeling, characters, the unknown, coloring, singing, the inner and outer worlds, poetry, our wits, our wyrd wyld ways (www), individual, paired, and group sharing and other delights, we’ll go on an adventure from before we were born, through the various stages of life such as birth, childhood, and elderhood, to death and the afterlife in a brief, yet vast 6-week time together.

Less like acting, more like playing, we’ll allow our creative impulses to come through and manifest shamelessly. Playing through a different stage each week, we’ll cultivate spontaneity, connection, and creativity, and get in touch with places in our spirits and lives that have possibly been neglected since we were kids. In other words, no pressure to “perform”; only pleasure to play, making room for all emotions! And, as an added bonus, as part of the Life Series, each participant will get an optional discounted Raven’s Remedy* session with your host, Doktor Robert.

I cannot recommend Doktor Robert’s Shamanik Improv Klasses highly enough. The klasses have been sheer GENIUS. They are works of art that you can crawl inside of and dream, play, cry, laugh, dance and imagine. -Rachael Knight

Martha Graham, Shakespeare, Bertolt Brecht, Carl Jung, Virginia Woolf… anybody who’s ever done anything of importance has been doing Shamanik Improv. They didn’t quite know that name. The name needed to be ripening on a tree and finally the fruit is juicy enough for us to actually devour it and know what it is. It is Shamanik Improv that we’ve all been getting these whispers of for millenia. -Daniel Rechtschaffen
