Poetic Pleasure – a workshop with Rata Gordon exploring the ways that writing poetry can bring us into a world of rich sensory engagement and pleasure. We will experiment with the ways that writing itself can be a pleasurable act, and explore the theme of ‘finding our pleasure’ through reading and writing poetry.

Rata Gordon is a poet, Open Floor movement teacher, Registered Arts Therapist and creative mentor. Rata’s poems have been published widely, and their book Second Person was published in 2020 by Te Herenga Waka University Press. Rata has over a decade’s experience of facilitating group spaces that are both settling for the nervous system, and creatively inspiring. www.ratagordon.com
