This class is all about helping you feel more confident, speak up, and connect with others—without the pressure. You'll get to explore your interests, pick a topic that matters to you, and build a creative project around it (think: art, media, music, writing—whatever fits your vibe). You can choose to share your project with the group, or your instructor can help present it for you.
We'll keep the group small so it feels more comfortable, and you'll get space to practice being yourself, speaking out, and building real-life skills like communication, self-esteem, and dealing with stress in social situations. This is a great “warm-up” if you're working on feeling more at ease around others.
No tests, no pressure—just support, creativity, and a chance to grow. Bring an electronic device (cell phone, tablet or laptop) Let instructor know during registration if one is needed for class.
