All Access Webinars: Managing Mental Health and Building Resilience in the Performing Arts

A Hands-on Workshop for Coping with the COVID-19 Crisis 

Living in the time of COVID, many of us are dealing with uncertainty, fear, grief, and anxiety. CAPACOA is here to support you, not only in business but also in your mental and emotional well-being. In partnership with the Canadian Dance Assembly and Dancer Transition Resource Centre: DTRC, we invite you to join us for a workshop with counsellor and consultant Deena Chochinov. She offers accessible information and the latest research on these mind-body effects and provides simple, practical and actionable tools to recognize, manage, and relieve the strains on our mental health. 

Deena also proposes effective practices for communicating with colleagues, staff and clients who are coping with these stresses, while maintaining one’s own personal resilience throughout the pandemic’s duration. Participants are invited to ask questions and share comments afterward.


This webinar is offered in English only. All members and non-members of the performing arts sector are welcome to participate, listen, and share on June 2nd at 3PM (ET). 

Registration is required through Zoom
