STRANGE BREW 4EVA ❤️
A selection of videos that only do minuscule justice to my mind blowing, cosmically charged experience of working at the Brew for the past 5 years 😂
Currently celebrating, reminiscing, grieving and acknowledging this utterly transformational era of my life…the sharing of so many nights with so many souls, the vibrational force of humans gathering en masse, sound making, shape shifting, communing, testing the boundaries of the senses. All of everything. Old friendships deepened and delicious new ones made. Lucky lucky we all are! ✨✨✨
With a very full heart I’m slightly deafer
Highly sensitive to bright lights and sudden noises
Bursting with love
Richer in every realm of the multi-verse
LOVE this place and all the many people in it who make it so incredibly special. Long may it reign 👑👑👑
Forever at you service ###xx
thank you thank you thank you

Deeelighted to be back once again with co-hosting the Harbourfest dance tent with the legends and Bandyt. Catch us there Saturday and Sunday 11.30-18.30 🐟🐟🐟
This year I’m also stepping up to lead a kids dance workshop on SUNDAY 13.20-14.05. Gonna be mostly lots of lil movement games, DEFINITELY a limbo, probably a conga line aaaand whatever else we dream up in the moment! Inspo came last year when so many kids wanted to come up on stage but they weren’t allowed - this year we are 💯 making space for that to happen 🥰 🥰
What could possibly go wrong…😂
how do I not have a photo of us?? We need to make amends!

Soul nurturing scenes at Saturdays event. So happy to have been a part of this beautiful gathering. Huge thanks to everyone who came down - it was magic to share it with you and a testimony to the power of collective movement ✨🙌
Having spent the best part of 3 decades immersed in club culture, it feels like both a full circle moment and a turning point towards embracing the sober positive perspective.
LOVED the no phones, no chat boundaries during the techno therapy sesssion. Felt a sense of connection that was authentic, unique, and doubtfree 💯
Gratitude to Jo for bringing this together, Prabuddha .amsterdam for the beautiful space holding, all the participants for showing up with open hearts and minds, and, of course, everyone for supporting and providing the PERFECT environment for it happen ❤️
Hopefully not too long before we do it again!!!

You can find a thousand articles online about the benefits of dancing. They tend to evidence things like increased motivation, cognitive vitality, cardiovascular fitness. I’m more interested in the research that affirms the social benefits; the transformation that happens between people during and after the dance experience.
Studies show that after dancing in unison, participants were more likely to share resources, communicate with empathy and advocate for one another. This happens because when we move together we experience something called Self-Other Merging - we perceive similarities over differences and strangers become known to us in the vulnerability of physical exchange.
The potential of this blows my mind!
The moving body is our most powerful tool - in celebration, in grief, in protest and in healing.

2 X Dream Team
Celebrating my soulful, connected, intuitive co-leads as we reach the end of 1 years dance facilitation at Easton Primary. We’ve been running two projects for and , both of which came to an end this week.
What can I say about the sessions…loud, challenging, joyful, chaotic, so many personalities in the room, so many displays of effortless style and grace, so many bursts of positive growth 🌱🌱🌻
I learnt a ridiculous amount - most particularly trying to maintain a person centred approach within the rigid structures of the school system. More play I say. MORE CREATIVITY IN SCHOOLS NOT LESS.
Feeling the injustice of the general deprioritisation of creative subjects. It seems transparent how beneficial they are to social and emotional development, OBVIOUSLY kids learn best through movement and play (there’s plenty of research to prove it). Also you can literally teach on any topic through the medium.
Enough rant. More praise! Love these women! Thanks for the dancing, thanks for the chats, thanks for putting up with me. It’s been real 😂❤️

4 the lovers 🪽💕
Ciao darlings and blessings 2 you allllll
Here are some class updates from meeee as we step into valentines season and BEYOND t’wards the lightness of spring 🌱
I run lots of session over the week atm but most of them are closed group or 1:1 - this is my only open class AND WHAT SWEET JOY it is!! Thanx to all the lush ones who’ve been coming along since we started in sept. I probably don’t do enough gratitudes for ya because truly, it couldn’t happen without u 🫶
Feels like we’ve got a real cute thing goin on. Selfishly I wanted to create a class that I would enjoy equally as both facilitator and participant with ZERO stress and that’s exactly what it’s been. If you wanna join you can book thru headfirst and it’s now also listed on ClassPass 🎟️🎟️🎟️
I first fell in love with house dance (and the music) when I stumbled unknowingly into a bar called Sin Sin on the Lower East Side in 2007. I’d never been in a space where the dance was so connected, reciprocating, expressive, giving and free. Fair to say that experience changed my perception of what clubbing could be, and probably shifted my entire worldview tbh.
Came back to Bristol feeling I’d discovered a whole new universe. Wouldn’t shut up about it and was no doubt intolerable 😂
And so here we are! Join me on fortnightly Saturdays in sharing this great passion. It’s for anyone who wants to get deep in the groove and free from all worldly concerns 🚀🪐
