About this Event
Join us for a warm evening of movement, music and connection — a space to explore, express, and simply be yourself.
This somatic dance weaves together elements of somatic movement and Yoga Nidra practices, gently supporting you to reconnect with your body’s natural wisdom.
Lying on a yoga mat, you're invited to settle into deep rest before awakening the body through simple, breath-led movement. As awareness shifts toward sensation, movement begins to flow more softly and intuitively - dissolving tension and nourishing both mind and body.
The ecstatic dance continues with light facilitation, supporting you to stay present and embodied. Expect a rich, emotive soundscape, journeying from softness into an organic deep house vibe, building toward lively, expansive crescendos and euphoric peaks - inviting you to shake off the remnants of the week and dance with complete freedom, on your own or with others.
We’ll close with a soothing crystalline sound bath led by Justine Nolan, followed by a gentle integration circle and post-dance gathering, with healthy snacks and drinks available.
Emerge feeling calm, centred and fully alive

ABOUT YOUR DJ AND FACILITATOR
Jane combines many years of training in spiritual and somatic practices with her experience as a psychotherapist to create grounded, heart-centred spaces for you to come home to yourself - to feel human.
With a deeply embodied sense of the transformative power of movement, her DJ sets flow intuitively through shadow and light, building through neoclassical, electronica and global rhythms to deep, melodic house and techno - inviting you to fully let go into whatever arises, before softening into deeper presence and connection.
Known for her Dancing Freedom woodland dances in Hackney Wick, she has guest-DJed for others including Ecstatic Dance UK, Rumble and The Psychedelic Society.
In addition to this monthly somatic dance, she also offers weekly somatic movement and Yoga Nidra sessions at Social Yoga.
