About

Ruth Schowalter
Welcome to InterPlay with Ruth Schowalter!

I am an artist, educator, and certified InterPlay leader.  I use the improvisational system of InterPlay in primarily three arenas: 1) Facilitating North American English Fluency; 2) Supporting Effective Science Communication; and 3) Providing training for certification for Applied InterPlay for Educators.

In addition, I use InterPlay to build and support communities seeking to
  • honor their creativity through visual arts and movement
  • conserve the environment
  • share their different faiths
  • celebrate the solstices and equinoxes
  • find joy, ease, and connection

InterPlay is an active, creative way to unlock the wisdom of the body.

Active
When you are engaged in InterPlay, you won't be just sitting and listening.  

Creative
InterPlay is about making things. It speaks to "art" connection, and also suggests engagement and fun. It also implies that it is different from other methodologies--these are new, different ideas.

Unlock   
InterPlay is the "key" to something that we have but may be hidden from us, something   that hasn't previously been available. It's a door-opener.

Wisdom of the body     
Wisdom of the body is the radical connection!  "Wisdom," which is the smartest use of our individual and collective experience, is rooted in our physicality. No more disembodied brains!

I DO INTERPLAY! I take extra pleasure in the fact that I teach what I do! Being an InterPlayer informs my using InterPlay as a methodology in the ESL classroom, my science communication workshops, and how I initiate other educators into using it for the instruction of whatever subject they are teaching. That is me, front and center, moving during a Walk, Stop, Run at "Evening InterPlay," which I facilitate in my Atlanta community once a month. (photo by Tony Martin)
