The sessions are meant to be practical and interactive, and are open to all members of the MIT community. Each session is limited to 30 participants. Pre-registration is encouraged but drop-ins are welcome if space is available.

In this first workshop on January 30, participants will explore how to loosen their minds and bodies though a series of improv games and activities. Please wear clothing you feel comfortable moving in. This session will be led by Dr. Jennifer Novotney, the American Chemical Society's 2014 Chemistry Champion.
