Each session begins with a short centering meditation, a bridge between the world of the mundane and the sacred world of art.  Something magical happens when we relinquish our control to the great creative power inside us.  Listening with the eye of the heart, Elana supports her students in the creation of powerful works.

What students say:

Gloria Garvin, Ph.D., writer and educator: "Elana connects writers with the essence and heart of their own creativity, no matter what the medium."

Erik Liberman, award-winning actor and author: "My friend, Tony-nominated actress Michele Shay, said, 'If you want the best, call Elana! I worked in one of Elana's groups in Los Angeles for a year, before moving to New York, and continuing our sessions over the phone. Her extraordinary guidance is no less palpable from across the country! With Elana's help, I successfully submitted my play to The Sundance Theatre Lab. My writing continues to blossom under her watchful eye, deep sensitivity, and wisdom."
