Out Into Nature Ongoing Body Tales Group
with Olivia Corson in Oakland
Every other Tuesday, 10 am–1:30 pm
"This group will meet in my home studio for our first session. After that we will meet either in the home studio, or outdoors at Redwood Park in the Oakland hills, depending on the weather. It has been many years since I offered an outdoor class and I am delighted to be forming this new group which meets out in nature for some sessions and in my home studio for some sessions. For our outdoor sessions, there is a 10-minute walk down a gorgeous hill to The Wonderful Sunny Meadow and The Lovely Shady Redwood Grove that we will meet in."
