Taira's classes and workshops offer participants practical resources for living their lives
more fully with greater awareness and with heightened creativity.
Taira attracts a diverse range of participants to her adult classes/workshops—
women and men from 20 to 80 years old with little artistic confidence to professional artists/dancers/performers.
Taira's teaching is quietly powerful and…a welcome breath of fresh air… What a gift she
is! Thank you, Taira!
-E.Dobbertin, psychotherapist
I took some wonderful items away with me: concepts of approaching art, interesting
exercises, and a couple of pieces of art that I still have on display at home. Taira is very
relaxed, confident, competent and intuitive -- she is a delightful teacher as well as fellow
participant in the art of Creativity.
-Susan S., workshop participant
Taira led such wonderful sessions and she held a powerful space for the group. It was
touching and a joy to experience and watch.
-Billy Cauley, musician and music educator
Loved the workshop!
-Raymond Sigrist, R.N.
Her gentle voice is like waves-- comes with perception, traces our path, then recedes
away into nothing but quiet. Extraordinary experience. Throughout the workshop,
Taira's teaching was about trust. When we trust each other and trust ourselves, we are
able to heal ourselves and each other.
-Dohee Lee, performance artist
Taira has a unique way of bringing the outdoors to life…The way she set the stage
was…incredibly effective at getting me into a deep state of sensory awareness that
carried on for hours. I was blown away! Thank you, Taira.
-Robert Teaford, physician
Taira, you have given my daughter such an incredible gift that will last her entire life.
How lucky she is to have you… A big part of who she is has come from you.
-Lola Rossman, R.N. parent of daughter in Girls Night Out
