Movement with Miriam

01/03/2026

What a long break I've had from Social Media! Phew. Behind the scenes I've been reflecting, digesting and preparing inwardly for the next journey in my professional (+ personal) life. It's a work in progress but there are pretty big changes happening. More about that soon... I'm sorry/not sorry if you haven't heard from me and have been wondering where the classes and offerings are. Here is my intention for the rest of summer and into autumn....

🍃 Parent & Child Acroyoga: two levels now- complete beginner and intermediate level which caters for children with either acro experience or those with good body awareness gained through another discipline such as dance, gymnastics, climbing etc.

🌋 Fortnightly Conscious Dance sessions for finding your own dance, community connection & tending to your inner landscape

🐒 Fortnightly Contact Improvisation class + jam for those interested in technique, play, movement research, learning.

Details will be posted in the events.
Reach out with any questions!

Gratitude to the community that came together, the land for witnessing us, and the teachings of Gabrielle Roth woven together and developed by the years of learnings and wisdom from our magnificent facilitator Natalie Poole
It was a treat!!

I’ve come away with:

~ More depth of understanding of 5Rhythms & perspective of Conscious Dance

~ New reflections on my own woundings & matriarchal ancestral lineage & the manifestation within my body & dance (noticing & acknowledging the patterns)

~ Refreshed sense of somatic embodiment of the organ systems within the body, & how to access a felt sense of the inner body

~ Greater capacity to empathise & confidence in working with emotions for my clients

~ A greater trust in how spirit manifests itself in dance

It feels rich and wonderful to have these opportunities both on a personal and also a professional development level. It feels like a space not everyone has access to, so I’m feeling the privilege and I’m also motivated to share my learnings here in Ōtepoti which always get digested, processed and then re-imagined into my own conscious dance, improvisation, & one-on-one somatic therapy offerings.

Please stay in touch if that’s interesting to you & feel free to connect or reach out 🌿

Gratitude for your act of Receiving 🌿

Gather & Ground on Sunday was a tangible experience of community dropping down into a deeper space collectively. Through the warm sun that caressed our skin as we entered the hall, to the scent of Tee’s incense, hot cups of mint or lemon balm tea, & honest smiling kōrero afterwards.

It felt deeply nourishing & such an honour to witness the shift in people as they found their wellspring of resources within themselves. Through body, through movement, through breath, through presence, curiosity & opening.

Whether you’re so ready to drop in, or still standing at the edge waiting for the right time, the journey is yours & in your timing, in your hands.

Ngā mihi nui ki a koe 🙏🏼🌿

Kia ora koutou,

Two sleeps till we Gather & Ground in collaboration with Transformation With Tee 🌬🌱

Tee Manunui will be offering her beautifully woven mahi to bring us into heart space, dropping the masks & opening to our unique gifts.

I will offer you some potent movement prompts to drop into your space of creative flow & step into your edge.

You will leave having attuned inward, moved some stagnant energy, experienced newness, gone on your own inner journey held by the group and the two facilitators, and will come out the other side via connection, sharing & grounding 🌿

It will be magic & we’d love you there. ✨

Arohanui
