About this Event

Join us on a beautiful journey of transformation, where movement becomes a potent catalyst for exploration, creativity and self-expression - where anything feels possible, and all of us is welcome.

Beginning lying on yoga mats, you'll be invited to relax completely, before flowing gently through some simple rhythmic movements to tune in to the natural intelligence of your body. By becoming intimate with the sensations being generated, you can learn to enjoy moving in ways that are deeply nourishing for both mind and body, allowing tensions to dissolve.

The ecstatic dance that follows will be very lightly facilitated to support continued connection with whatever is being felt in the moment. Expect a rich, emotive soundscape with plenty of softness and warmth, as well as lively, uplifting rhythms to help shake off any remaining tensions and let go into dancing with complete freedom - on your own or with others.

We'll integrate the journey with a soothing crystalline sound bath, before coming together for a closing circle and post-dance gathering, with healthy snacks and drinks available.

Emerge feeling relaxed, calm and fully alive
