Testimonials
Seth is incredibly engaging and captivating. The students were so connected to the material and remained focused and entertained throughout the 1-hour workshop. Seth keeps things moving at a great pace, makes the material accessible, fills the time with learning opportunities and gets both minds and bodies super active. The age group loves superheros and really latched onto learning about mythology and creating their own fantasy world in which heroes can take on both real and mythological qualities. Great and age appropriate material. The students were excited to share this workshop with their parents/friends during their camp showcase.
