Join critically acclaimed spoken word artist and poet Amy Bodossian for a one-day online workshop.
Poetry has the power to take what's inside of us and give voice to our unique experience in a way that no other art form can.

You will learn:
-
How to switch off the critic, tap into inspiration and write more often

How to structure, edit, shape a poem – what to focus on, what to leave out
-
How to drill down to the heart of what you are wanting to express in a poem
