💫INVITATION TO MOVE💫
😍Maryam and LadyFem invite you to join us for our April dance🔥This will be LadyFem's final dance before she heads overseas for winter... so this is your chance to immerse in one of her soundscapes! We're stoked to have the wonderful Maryam back guiding this dance with her beautiful voice, deep wisdom and ease of holding space. These two are great friends and hold a light, yet potent frequency together and we warmly welcome you to drop into something special this month 😍
Somatic Dance is a guided free form movement journey, delving deep into the layers of the body and held in a non-judgemental space where all of you is welcome. No prior dance experience is necessary and all bodies are welcome 🤗
There are no routines or steps to follow here, simply an invitation to discover how your body wishes to move. The guided facilitation is supported by a carefully curated soundscape overseen by a DJ 🎶
This dance is an invitation for you to come and move your body to the unique rhythm of you, supporting a deeper connection with yourself and others 💃🕺
This is a space free from alcohol, shoes and talking. Let the epic music and guidance of your facilitator carry you out of your mind and into your body, allowing yourself to experience the transformative power of Somatic Dance! The music takes the form of a wave, beginning gently before building to a peak, then settling back down to land softly and slowly.
We recommend wearing clothes you are comfortable moving in (layers are great), bring along a drink bottle and a drop or two of curiosity!
Our dance spaces are designed for adults to create a space where you are able to freely explore and express your authentic self, in whichever shape and form it happens to be expressing itself. As part of this, we request that alternate arrangements are made to care for any children while you attend. If you have a child you would like to bring along, please reach out to us and we can have a chat about whether it is a possibility 🥰

🏡The location is: Mt Eden Village Centre, 449 Mount Eden Road, Mount Eden, Auckland 1024

⏰ We welcome you at any time from 6.45pm for a 7pm start.
