From a participant: Thank you so much for an inspiring experience and a new way of thinking about dance connections .
I have been experiencing different modalities on how to tap into one’s own body-wisdom for a few years now. How surprising to find process work in combination with movement, to drop as deeply and quickly as weekend workshops do, but this time within the hour. As if time is the ultimate measure to rate or recommend a practice. I continue to love workshops and now I love this practice too.

What it is about - Being an activist for the soul
All is movement. All is relationship. But how do I work with this in a way that feels right, healthy, providing growth and substance in my life? In each session we will explore how our bodies move, how we relate from the different places inside us to meet others, the world, and stay true to who we are. Our focus will be on what feels good, right, vital, expanding these qualities to meet our wholeness in the dance. There will be an opportunity to bring words to the experience in a one to one facilitation while supported and witnessed by the group.
This is a combination of dance and Process Work. In doing the work, we create change in ourselves and therefore support change in the world around us.
During the sessions - Healing happens in the body - witnessed with compassion
We will use movement and the spoken word creating the poetry that is present in our bodies.

We will
- hold space for each other,
- dance, feeling into our current physical state and our mental mood,
- have an opportunity to explore one to one,
- be the witness, feeling into those same places in ourselves,
- be witnessed as we step into a new layer of trust in our bodies,
- over time learn to trust our body's movement - quirky, strange, pleasant.
A 1 Day Open Floor Workshop in Glasgow
|
Join me close to midwinter in Scotland, at a time when our bodies need the warmth and joy of movement. Come and delight in the chill and the dark that we will light up with movement, connection, glittering stars, candles and an optional hot tub….
The venue is the Universal Hall, which is situated within beautiful dunes and a 2minute walk to the Findhorn Bay. The natural environment supports the movement of our dancing journey.
Taking the time to gather close to the winter solstice and the end of the year, we will explore how Open Floor movement practice can support the discovery and integration of what has been and who we are becoming.
