Interactive Workshops For Every Audience
Ethical Storytelling In Documentary Film
Cultural narratives shape reality, yet documentary filmmaking can easily perpetuate cycles of exploitation for both people and places. This workshop provides a framework to examine and understand the role we all play in storytelling – asking the question:
“What role will you play in
building a better system?”
Beyond the Hero: Redefining Adventure Storytelling
This session challenges storytellers—both seasoned and emerging—to reimagine narrative arcs that decenter humans and embrace reciprocity with the land, resisting extractive tropes in favor of interdependence and place-based wisdom.
Rooted in both media critique and archetypal psychology, participants learn the mental health impact of traditional outdoor narratives while exploring new story formats to disrupt the outdoor cliché.
Trail Running 101
Whether you’re new to trail running or a seasoned vet, dig into skills for both individual and group enjoyment of time on the trails.
What if becoming the leader you’ve always meant to be just required putting one foot in front of the other?
Equanimity Outdoors
This backcountry educational course provides students with the community and capabilities to develop agency in their journey of mountain education alongside personal empowerment.
Empathic & Authentic Communication for Inclusive Leaders
This course lays the foundation for always-authentic leadership that can be inclusive every day, every way. With a focus on building healthy communication patterns and audience-tailored listening, this workshop addresses the question:
“How can I be the most effective leader for my team?”
