About this Event

Feeling stuck, stressed, or disconnected from yourself?

Move to Thrive is a guided wellbeing experience designed to help you release tension, reconnect with your body, and feel more alive through movement, breath, music, and community.

Set inside the Firepit Art Gallery, this session offers something a little different. The creative atmosphere, artwork, and surrounding space become part of the experience, inviting expression, play, and presence.

No dance experience needed. No choreography to learn. No pressure to perform.

A welcoming space to move in ways that feel right for you, without judgement or performance.

What to Expect:

Grounding & Breathwork
Arrive, slow down, and reconnect with the present moment.

Mindful & Intuitive Movement
Gentle guided movement to release stress, soften tension, and build body awareness.

Creative Exploration
At times, we may draw inspiration from the art and space around us through playful prompts and movement invitations.

Joyful Bollywood Dance
An uplifting, Bollywood-inspired community dance. No steps to follow, just movement, rhythm, and joy.

Cool Down & Integration
Gentle stretches and space to land feeling calmer and clearer.

You’ll Leave Feeling:

  • Lighter and more relaxed
  • Grounded and energised
  • More connected to your body
  • Emotionally refreshed
  • Uplifted through movement and community

Who It’s For:

Adults of all abilities, bodies, and energy levels.
Perfect if you’re navigating stress, burnout, overthinking, or simply want more joy and movement in your week.

What to Bring:

Comfortable clothes to move in and a water bottle.
Barefoot, socks, or shoes all welcome.
