STILTWALKING WORKSHOPS for Teens

WISE GUISE STILTWALKING EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM: This program is specifically designed to promote confidence and self-determination through the experience of being "larger-than-life." In a culture where so many of us are "disappeared" stiltwalking gives us a chance to be seen. Wise Fool's stiltwalking workshops stress trust, responsibility and respect for self and others. They build self-esteem and peer support systems for struggling youth. Stiltwalking workshops are also highly successful as leadership training exercises.

$40 per artist, per contact hour. 1-15 students, 1 artist, 15-20 students, 2 artists. 2-4 one-and-a-half hour sessions recommended depending on class size and age range. Stilts can be built by Wise Fool artists for $45 per pair or rented for $15 per pair. (1 pair of stilts for each 3 students participating is recommended)

For Adults: We can do it too! A challenge to our fear of heights and our feeling that we can't do anything new. Prices include a pair of stilts* for each participant to keep and 2 three hour sessions.

Groups 6 and under $75-100 per person sliding scale Groups 6-12 $60-100 per person sliding scale
