A Gentle Landing (AGL) Studio Lab is a space for rest, healing, and play that strengthens the spiritual and creative lives of its participants. It offers a supportive environment where people can step away from algorithm-driven pressures and enter a slower rhythm of reflection, imagination, and embodied grounding.
The Studio Lab hosts gatherings, workshops, and companioning spaces that help individuals build capacity for creative work, deepen their spiritual practices, develop gentler relationships with their craft, and nurture their vocational clarity. It is designed as a trauma-sensitive environment where rest and formation unfold together, and where participants learn to cultivate lives rooted in flourishing rather than productivity.
In this space, creative practice is treated as spiritual practice. Participants are invited to explore their own becoming, tend the body, cultivate aliveness, and practice what Lucille Clifton calls “build[ing] something human.”
our philosophical grounding
A Gentle Landing Studio Lab is grounded in an integrated set of frameworks that shape the pedagogy, ethos, and practices of the space:
Black Feminist Poetics
Centering imagination, lineage, breath, aliveness, and the everyday as sites of knowing.
Womanist Theology
Attending to liberation, embodied wisdom, dignity, survival, and joy within community.
Digital Media Literacy
Naming the formational pressures of digital life and offering practices that support agency, discernment, and humane connection.
Contemplative Practice
Cultivating slowness, presence, healing, and the rhythms of becoming that attend to body, breath, and spirit.
These lenses guide how we gather, create, teach, rest, and build capacity together. They allow the Studio Lab to function as both sanctuary and training ground. This is a place where people learn to be softer with themselves while strengthening the skills required for a life of creative and spiritual integrity.
