So much to reflect on!

*How do we nourish creativity?

*How do we teach mindfully?

*How energise practice and repetition?

*How envoice performers?

*How address, engage with and communicate with others?

*How send out our students as ambassadors for our creative practices?

Just some of the universal questions for all of us teaching – creatively, mindfully, reflectively, performance-enhancingly – in HE!

A series of blog posts here will sketch some of the answers suggested in the Conference and in its blogs https://rcconference.wordpress.com/conference-blog/
