Join us for ‘Assemble Your Inner Hero,’ a dynamic and engaging workshop where we’ll explore how the power of storytelling can illuminate pathways to personal growth. Through interactive activities, and group discussions of iconic movie moments, you’ll be surprised at the amazing lessons we uncover. As you can see from the initial quote, Kung Fu Panda is one of my all-time favourite movies, and I’ve drawn many life lessons from it—from Po breaking stereotypes of what heroes look like and having fun being one, to Master Oogway’s mindful, zen-like wisdom. You might not believe it, but I even wrote ‘inner peace’ as one of my work goals in a goal setting evaluation during my lawyer days.
WHAT WILL WE EXPLORE?
During this workshop, we’ll explore and identify the admirable traits of your beloved movie characters based on different themes. Based on how this aligns with your own values and aspirations, we’ll heart storm ways to call on these hero and their model qualities into your daily life. The takeaway, is for you to develop a personalised blueprint, yes, your very own “Inner Hero Assembly,” toolkit that you can call refer to and call upon as reminders to cultivate your desired characteristics.
Movies also provide us with an opportunity to explore other cultures and genres that we may not have encountered. This workshop is also a chance to connect with fellow participants and expand our horizons on what else is out there. It opens a window to new perspectives, experiences, and inclusive conversations.
Whether you’re drawn to the unwavering determination of a classic hero, the quiet strength of a supporting character, or the transformative journey of an unlikely protagonist, recognise the characteristics of your hero and cultivate potential within you.
This is more than just a movie discussion; it’s a journey of self-discovery, using the magic of cinema to unlock your own inner hero. Inspire you! Share your favourite movie moments and quotes, and assemble the best version of yourself!
