Yokohama JALT:

Teaching Alive: Embodied Approaches to Teacher Well-being and Burnout Prevention

Date: Sunday, June 21st, 2026 Time: 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Speaker: Eucharia Donnery (Soka University)

Description:
This interactive workshop explores teacher welfare through embodied, drama-based pedagogy. Rather than treating well-being as simply "stress management," the session positions wellness as relational, physical, emotional, and performative: how teachers inhabit classrooms, relationships, expectations, and themselves. Participants will actively engage in short performative activities, reflective movement, pair interaction, tableau work, and collaborative meaning-making. The workshop is designed to be energizing, gentle, and practical while also creating space for honest reflection about exhaustion, care, boundaries, and sustainability in education.

Organization: Yokohama Chapter of the Japan Association for Language Teaching (Yokohama JALT)

Cost: JALT Members: free
Non-members: 2,000 yen (free for first time)

Venue: Keio University, Hiyoshi Campus, Raiosha Building 2F (map: map)
