e31 Animals, Africa, and following your heart, with Carla Feuerriegel

e32 Creativity & Growth through Movement & Play, with Katharina Dodel

Cartwheels, making up stories and curiously asking questions, Katharina Dodel is convinced that this is not something only reserved for kids. She's sure: We humans are made for movement, for being active. We stay awake and healthy if we continually encourage and challenge our body and mind. Through playing she brings it both together as an endless, constant recombining of possibilities. Without comparison and judgment – but with joy and ease. This became the slogan of her work around „wampediboo", her playful orbit where she offers Yoga, Movement Play and Handstand classes. Besides playing with the body, Katharina plays with words as a journalist or when writing poetry and prose. In this episode we talk about what role does movement play in Katharina's life, how she enriches her movement practice from yoga and vice versa., building a community of creative movement practice, and the story behind Wampediboo!
