Arts in CPD Programs

Felt Sense Arts in Continuing Professional Development Programs

Continuing Professional Development (CPD)  trainees who experience inner stoppages can find that imaginary space and alternative world experiences are beneficial

They can find real-life solutions through unexpected and unpredictable experiences that are effective, sensory-based and playful. Arts that are based on the Felt Sense concept are known to facilitate such experiences 

Our Felt Sense Arts approach is designed to address learning experiences that are structured in a way that can make trainees feel stuck. Our Felt Sense Arts tools are versatile and can be implemented in any CPD setting

Felt Sense Arts-based Hands-on Methods We Offer

In Felt Sense Arts CPD programs, we employ a variety of hands-on methods that are customized to the training setting, its topics and issues, and its target audiences. Please find below some examples of the methods we use:

 

  • Expressive Portraying: Doing a one-line blind draw from faces as a warm up and to connect

 

  • Embodied Doodling: Energizing the body through spontaneous repetitive art activities for stress release and grounding

 

  • Felt Art Journaling: Processing difficult emotions, issues or intentions through multiple layers of artistic expression from the body sense

 

  • Museum Art-Based Engagement: Receptive-active art activities that respond to fine arts from the art sense (Paolo Bianchi) and find aesthetic connection and deeper meaning

 

 

  • Experiential Dynamic Shape Drawing (DSD): Focus through the drawing of rhythmical moving and swinging lines while breathing using Lombard braid patterns for inspiration (Anthroposophical Art Therapy)
