‍Upcoming Programmes:

‍

5 September: Rising with Tenderness - Early Spring Movement

You are warmly invited to come and move with me as we celebrate the changing season. With gentle guidance, I will introduce you to dance movement therapy ideas inspired by Marianne Chace (warm up, theme & closure) as well as the Laban Movement Analyse theories ( LMA) playing around 'Rising & Sinking 'polarities.' The session will cover:

• Gentle arrival and grounding
• Breath and mobility warm-up
• Seated or standing improvisation with spring imagery
• Mirroring duos
• Calm closing and reflection.

This is an invitation and all the above is optional. This session will be a heartfelt, fun, compassionate and welcoming space in which to explore sensations & emotions through your dance and  movement.

12 September: Doodle, Create and Unwind (with Kelly Roos)

In this session, participants will explore the relaxing and enjoyable art of doodling with fine line pens. In this creative workshop, experiment with lines, shapes, patterns and repeated designs to create your own unique artwork. We’ll use simple outlines as a starting point, which could include animals, plants, objects or abstract shapes, before filling them with your own patterns and ideas. No previous drawing experience is needed — just bring your curiosity and have fun exploring where a line can take you!

19 September: Turn Up the Music performance

In this session, participants will hear and celebrate the  musical learning of a section of our students. Expect everything from  beginners to intermediate students and some exciting talent!

‍

26 September: Journalling as Self Care (with Lizanne Knights)

Following Lizanne’s first journalling session earlier this year, she will provide the opportunity for reflection on your journaling experience to date, bearing in mind that your journal always meets you where you are in life and without judgement.

Whilst not exclusively for those who journal regularly or who have done so during the last six months, this will be a safe space to share experiences. There will be an opportunity to discuss what aids and what distracts from your journaling .

Do come along (with your journal) if you want to gain insights and ideas to deepen your practice  and/ or you are curious to explore journaling further.
