Bodywriting™ Retreats have served at least 130 women from Oregon, Texas, Arizona and California. Many who have participated in Bodywriting™ do not consider themselves "artists." They come to grow and learn about themselves, to be immersed in art-making, to take a risk, stretch their boundaries, explore new possibilities or mark a passage. One participant recently wrote, "I signed up for this because it is a RISK, and I know how risking can help you move to another place in life."
