x-dance is a dynamic practice that blends dance, self-expression and meditation in the same breath. Unlike traditional dance forms, there are no specific steps to follow here. Instead, you’ll be guided by an eclectic mix of music and inspirational prompts, inviting you to tune into your body, connect with yourself and to follow intuitive movement moment by moment. There are no “right” or “wrong” ways to move here – just an open invitation to discover and express yourself.Using the 5Rhythms framework, we will explore 5 fundamental life energies (rhythms) through the dance. The music is played like a “wave” where it goes up and comes back down again. There are 3 essential ingredients to each event:
✨ Freedom to be: You’re invited to let go of the thinking mind, explore physical and emotional landscapes without any pressure of performance or “getting it right”
✨ Invitations, not instructions: You’ll receive impulses and ideas to explore different aspects of movement and self-expression. Most importantly, you’ll be encouraged to follow what feels true for you.
✨ Presence: Dance becomes a meditation in motion, inviting presence directly through the body in each movement. As you feel the music and let the dance move you, your thoughts will be allowed to quiet down.
💎 For you
Perhaps you want to release tension from daily life and connect with your body? Or, you really love good music and want to dance outside the club space? Or, you’re curious to find greater freedom in your body …
Maybe you’ve danced 1000 times, or never before. Wherever, however, come as you are and give yourself the permission to dance, to be curious and to meet yourself in ways you might never have imagined.
x-dance is an open and non-judgemental space that invites you to come exactly as you are. No previous dance or other experience required.

🌀 Flow
Doors open at 19.15 and close promptly at 19.45. Please note entry after 19.45 isn’t possible.
🌀 Welcome + Introduction: After a guided warm-up through the body, we’ll have a general welcome and introduction to the theme for the evening before we go into the dance.
🌀 Dance + Music: Let go of any preconceived notions you might have about dance. Unlike anything you’ve experienced before, there is no choreography or special moves in this space. The music is played in a form of a wave where the rhythms will rise to a crescendo and then gently fall – and you’ll get to discover how it feels to move to those beats, moment by moment. During the dance, you’ll be guided with some words of inspiration and invitations (never instructions) to enhance your experience.
🌀 Take it Further - Gathering after class: Once the official dance is over, we open the space for all who want to stay and connect. There will be snacks, opportunities for exchange and spaces for quiet reflections, too.
🌀 No phones: To allow for greatest spontaneity, creativity and freedom of expression, no phones on the dance floor.
