Leap and Feet to the Fire Writers’ Workshops® are offering a 12-week expressive writing program where you can explore the art of writing and storytelling in a collaborative and judgement-free zone!

No writing experience is required! With creatively designed writer's kits and virtual groups, Feet to the Fire Writers’ Workshop facilitators will lead you through this immersive journey of self-expression and self-discovery.

Facilitator: Angela Burton

Angela Burton is the Founder & Chief Writing Motivator of Feet to the Fire Writers' Workshops®, a creative program that inspires older adults to challenge themselves through expressive writing. Burton holds an MFA in Creative Writing from Vermont College of Fine Arts and a B.A. in English from the University of Louisville.

Started in Louisville, KY in 2014, Feet to the Fire has expanded to develop a licensed train-the-facilitator program for senior living communities and wellness organizations. The program currently operates in seven U.S. states. In 2020, amidst the COVID pandemic, Feet to the Fire pivoted to launch a consumer version – writer’s kits and virtual groups for those who are socially isolated by the pandemic, a needed way for people to fill up their days, writing the stories of their lives, finding purpose along the way.
