BodyLovesDance - a celebration of being alive and self-expression through dance!
About this Event

A journey of a lifetime of dances begins with a single conscious dance class.

To enjoy conscious dance we need to understand that it's not about performance, goal achieving, body shaping, calories burning, looking great.

So why dance?

Because it makes us feel more alive and it brings us to the present moment;

Because it has a power to transform how we feel, both physically and emotionally;

Because it gives us freedom to engage in movement which connects us to the space within as well as with others, in a playful and meaningful way.

Each session is an invitation to explore your creativity, listen to your body and feel simply and fully alive. It's about finding movement that is supportive and nourishing. It's about learning to listen and follow your intuition. There are no steps to learn, you don't need experience and all moves are welcome.

We dance solo, in partnership and in community. This is a safe space to explore embodiment and expression, open to all, whether you love dancing or think you can't dance, there is no right or wrong way.

What to bring:

  • Water bottle to stay hydrated
  • Clothing that is comfortable to move in
  • Anything else to ensure your comfort and support.

Cost £15 drop in / £10 students&low waged

Music begins 7:15pm and we finish by 9pm with a closing circle.

***************

About Bernadeta: she is an advocate for dance and any practice which is liberating the body, heart and mind (cold water dipping, connection with nature, writing, painting, clowning etc) from the constant voice of not good enough, the inner critic etc . Bernadeta trained with The School of Movement Medicine extensively (5years +) which is preeminent in the field of conscious dance. She has been teaching for the last 6 years. Her style is engaging and playful, with a lot of depth and light.
