10:00 AM - 10:55 AM: Dance Free by the Sea with Hannah Green (Dance Free CIC)
Start your day with an uplifting morning dance session led by Hannah. Moving freely by the sea, energising body and soul. This is a chance to connect to rhythms, each other, and nature through joyful movement.
Beginning with a warm welcome and a few simple guidelines on how to truly dance free in your body. Hannah will then guide you through a gentle, facilitated movement meditation over calming music for 5 minutes, helping you drop into your body. This will flow into a 50-minute music journey β€” a wave of diverse rhythms from all over the world β€” perfect for free, uninhibited movement.
Simply move as much or as little as you like, however you feel. It's a wonderfully warm, fun, and welcoming space to let go and be free.
