It's been a crazy month. I got a great new part time job, started counselling training, and I took over teaching a course to train counsellors on my own for the first time. I've spent far too many hours working frantically on my laptop early starts and late nights and that will continue. On top of that my car was written off last week but that will be fixed in time. Clearly the universe was trying to slow me down a bit!

But tonight I walked to my venue (thanks to the incredible David Marshall) carrying lights, laptop and speaker! And this is my face watching the dancers do their dance, in the zone, to the music I curate.

I needed the dance to move my body and let go of the tension and feel the joy. I just love watching, holding the space. It feels like what I was born to do. And when we all stop dancing and sit in the ensuing silence, there are no words needed.

Maybe you need a bit exercise or to see other humans, or to try something different. Maybe you need space to remember who you are or love a dance around the kitchen.

Perhaps, like me you've had a stressful and hectic few weeks and know that a dance around with no small talk and no-one to please will bring your soul alive and bring you back to life (or at least get you out of the house!).

Tomorrow we dance, move, rest, lie, sit to music. It's your time and there's no real rules be respectful and take care of you and others, no chat, no devices, no stimulants, no steps.

Come dance your dance.

Take your time, hurry up, the choice is yours, don't be late....a great philosopher once sang...Come as you are.

ps. this is my after dance...I turned up stressed and exhausted and this is the face I left with. Not just me, we all leave GLOWING and at peace. It's magic.

I can't tell you how joyful it was this week to dig out an old tune from so many years ago [Last Train to Llasa]. The literal sound of being taken on a journey somewhere far, far away.

Very symbolic for our conscious dance as it does take us somewhere so different. At the end of every dance we sit down and it's like people landing from another place - there's just silence and stillness.

Nobody wants to speak and break the magic and step out from that magical place. Usually all that is eventually said is thank you.

Thank you and thank you to my community of dancers who keep showing up and thank you to me for trusting and showing up to hold the dance each month.

🌿 Feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your head, or craving real connection?
Your body might be asking you to dance.

Tomorrow, we move. Not to perform. Not to impress.
But to shake off stress, reconnect with ourselves and come back to joy.

✨ This is conscious dance — where there's no right way to move.
Just your breath, your body, your rhythm, your truth.
We create a safe, welcoming space for you to explore your own movement, at your own pace.

Whether you’re holding tension, riding waves of emotion, or just needing to feel alive again — come as you are.
Leave feeling lighter, clearer and more connected.

📅Thursday 25th September
📍 Tilehouse Street Baptist Hall, Hitchin (Free Parking)

Let’s dance our way home.

What an amazing night of dancing and connection!

Towards the end of the session we slowly transition from movement to join in our circle and there is time to share.

It's beautiful.

Often we sit in silence as there are no words to say, no words needed - we have transcended and are fully full, connected to each other and all that is.

It's a magical feeling of peace and togetherness even though we have probably never had a conversation with each other and we all feel it.

However we did then have a lively share about music! About how we can like or dislike the music and how sometimes disliking or not being familiar with the music that we normally like can shift us to another place.

Disrupt us from what we think we know.

For me that's exactly what I want for you in the dance. To be surprised - yes I did just mix Tchaikovsky into Nirvana, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan to Raul Ferrando and then Manu Chao - uh-huh guilty (and delighted) as charged.

I want you to be challenged, to feel that jarring, to not just dance to what you love and know. That's part of the Conscious bit of conscious dance - that opportunity to wake up and change our perception, to find new ways, to be different, to explore, to change, to play, to be annoyed.

So your invitation...what music do you really love to dance/move to? What music touches your soul? What music do you hate?
I'd love to hear.

What a magical evening dancing in the heat. Thank you to our beautiful dance community for showing up and shining their love through their dirty feet and joyful smiles.

Next date 10th July...join us

There's a space for you to dance, move, rest, lie down, do your sitting dance or your I'm too hot dance. It's your space to dance like you.

There is no obligation to "dance" its quite a loaded term isn't? Lots of shadows and fears around that for many so ease your way in and move however you like to the music.

Tonight, 7.30 pm in Hitchin move in beautiful, loving, accepting community where you will be seen and welcomed.
