When inspiration strikes, you feel alive.
What if you were able to just switch on your creativity?
When we feel an urge to create, we can often feel pressure to make it happen. We mistakenly believe we need to try harder. It’s “mind over matter.”
But the source of your creative power isn’t in your mind, it’s in…

...Your Body
Are you an aspiring writer who wants to break old habits and unlock your voice?
Are you an experienced writer who has started a project but is struggling to finish it?

I never in a million years would have said I’m a writer or I write before I took Sense Writing. I didn’t think I had anything to say at all or that I could actually articulate it on paper.”
Emily TobeyHow Sense Writing Differs
The Common Methods
Senses Writing goes beyond the common methods such as traditional genre classes and free writes.
These can either make the product or process feel forced or keep you spiraling in old habits of thought and language, obscuring your true voice.
Sense Writing
Sense Writing‘s specialized writing and movement sequences help you reach a place of supple awareness, where elements of craft and story emerge and flow organically.
With Sense Writing, habits of thought and language gently dissolve to unlock your voice. The practice is both structured and continually expansive to fit your evolving needs.
The Common Methods
Traditional craft classes teach writing through the elements of storytelling, such as character and conflict, which can make the writing process and product feel forced.
Free writes often use prompts to bypass overthinking. These free writes may eventually reinforce old habits of thought and language, keeping you in a spiral of repetition, obscuring your true voice.

Before Sense Writing I was overthinking everything, I had to have an objective, I had to have an audience, I had to have everything in mind. And when you’re so overwhelmed who has the energy to pick up that pen and find a piece of paper? I didn’t. Sense Writing has cured that, amazingly.“
Ariela PelegThis course is not for you if:
- You believe creativity is something that “happens” to you and prefer to stay out of the driver’s seat.
- You don’t feel any hesitation in getting started in your writing.
- Your creative projects can do just fine coming in unpredictable bursts.
- You are not willing to explore deeper emotions underlying your creative patterns.
- You cannot support fellow students in their own creative journeys.

Madelyn Kent is a New York-based playwright and director, and former Creative Writing Faculty member at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. A pioneer in physical approaches to creativity, she developed Sense Writing because she believes the techniques she used to build a sustainable artistic path should be shared, not hidden away. To contribute to a more richly creative world, she wants to empower other artists to find their way forward, too.
Madelyn’s plays have been presented in theaters in Europe and New York, including Soho Rep, where she is a founding member of the the Obie award winning Writer/Director Lab. After over 10 years of teaching, the limitations of available methods of teaching creative writing became impossible to ignore. The standard approaches seemed to overlook deeper issues of anxiety and blocks, and in some cases, reinforced them. Already deeply immersed in various physical approaches to creativity, she realized the crucial role physicality played in the realm of expression and imagination.
In 2008, Madelyn left New York and her teaching position to become a Practitioner in Feldenkrais Somatic Education. Upon returning to New York, she combined her expertise in Somatic Education, teaching, and writing to develop Sense Writing, which she has taught in live workshops to over 1,000 people in ten countries. She has helped students— from award-winning filmmakers and journalists to people who have never written before— find trust and joy in their creativity and build the resilient writing practice they’ve always wanted. Now for the first time Sense Writing is available to anyone in the world.
FAQs
From the very first day, the private Facebook group is open. This is an optional group, where you can share your thoughts and reflections on any of that week's lessons, get extra support, and where Madelyn will be to answer questions. Though the Facebook group will be an engaged community made up of participants from around the world, if you do not use Facebook, you will still get the full benefits of the course from the lessons themselves.
Madelyn is always present to respond to your reflections and questions personally whether in the group or through email.
Our first live call will be scheduled during our second week, after you have settled into the program.
Sense Writing is an approach that people return to again and again as their writing transform and projects change. Though the program runs for 12-weeks, you can come back to the material in Sense Writing Online any time you need to in the future-- as your writing practice grows and evolves.

It's impossible to meet everyone's schedule across all time zones. If you are worried about missing some live call sessions and are hesitant to sign up, please don't let this impede you. The live sessions are recorded and you can submit a question to me beforehand which I will answer in the session.
Each Monday the lessons for that week are released in the member area. Though the Facebook discussions and the live call session will most likely reflect on that week's lesson, going at your own pace is a value of Sense Writing. You can take your time going through the weeks. And remember: you always have access to all the course materials.
