In our quest to discover new creative outlets that fill the well and open up new space for and in our writing, Writespace programming director Jamie Portwood teams up with dancer, choreographer, writer, and Writespacer Eloísa Castillo to lead an experience of movement in the body and on the page. Eloísa and Jamie will lead participants through a series of movement and writing exercises designed to foster expression and free creative energy. This workshop will be specific to using movement in the body to process 2022 and prepare for 2023.
Eloísa A. Castillo was born in Houston but spent years of her childhood in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. She returned to Houston to finish high school and received her bachelor’s degree in dance from Sam Houston State University.
As a Latina creator and educator, Eloísa began writing her first novel after being diagnosed with epilepsy and undergoing multiple surgeries, therapies, and treatments.
When she’s not writing, she chooses aquatics and lunch with friends to relax. She also volunteers and advocates strongly for many different, creative art and aid organizations like Writespace and the Epilepsy Foundation.
