Contraindications
These workshops are not suitable for people who are very sensitive to noise and screaming (as people sometimes express their emotions with their voice). If you're undergoing treatment with antipsychotic medication or have had psychotic episodes, this is also not for you. Other contraindications include pregnancy and epilepsy. If you have serious medical conditions or strong anger management issues, get in touch to make sure this is right for you.
