SOMATIC DANCE CONVENTION 2026 - the return…


THIS YEAR'S THEME:

🚀 THE NEURO-VERSE 🚀

A Two-Room "Summit" Flow: Dance, Embodiment, and Transformation.

Welcome to the second year of the UK’s premier Somatic experience! This year, we journey into the Neuro-Verse. An expansive, futuristic landscape where we celebrate internal experience over external appearance. This is a sanctuary for Bio-Intelligence, where every conscious rhythm is a medicine, and every nervous system is a map to embodiment.


📍 EVENT DETAILS

Location: Richmix, Shoreditch, London

Date: 19 April 2026

Time: 12:30 PM – 10:00 PM


Registration / Check-In:

  • Opens at 12:30 PM
  • VIP ticket holders receive goodie bags, and general ticket holders receive wristbands
  • Staff available for guidance, questions, and accessibility needs


🚀 WHAT TO EXPECT

From the moment you arrive, you are no longer a spectator; you are an explorer.

The Neuro-Verse is for movers, dancers, creatives, therapists, seekers, and curious Souls. No dance experience required.

Here, every rhythm is valid, every body is honored, and regulation matters more than perfection.


🧭 TWO-ROOM SUMMIT FLOW

Navigate your own coordination. Move freely between rooms; there is no wrong path, only what your nervous system calls for.

12:30 PM | Arrival and Neural Grounding

A shared opening to land, regulate, and synchronise our collective nervous systems.


✨ CHOOSE YOUR PATH

THE SANCTUARY (Main Stage)

  • Shadow Work and Sacred Rage – Exploring boundaries with neurodivergence
  • Somatic Storytelling with EFT – Exploring emotional expression.
  • Beat Motion – Neuro-rhythm and embodied flow
  • Somatic Belly Dance – Core and energy activation

🗝 KEYNOTE PANEL

Bio-Intelligence in the Neuro-Verse: The Evolution of Diverse Embodiment

A movement-first panel exploring how to:

  • Re-code the nervous system
  • Move beyond masking
  • Use introspection to access the language of the Soul


🌅 EVENING PEAK (Main Stage)

  • Cacao: Journey to Joy – Heart-opening Neuro+ reset
  • Somatic Sound Bath – Sensory-friendly integration
  • NEURO-GLOW DANCE – Celebrate, connect, and close the circuit


🛡 SOMATIC SAFETY, CONSENT, and CARE

  • All practices are invitational
  • Touch is never required; all partner/group work is consent-based
  • Step out, move, or rest at any point.
  • Quiet integration spaces and facilitators are available
  • Some sessions explore Shadow Work, boundaries, and Sacred Rage.

This is neither a performance nor a clinical therapy space; it is a guided embodied exploration where presence matters more than appearance.


🤍 ACCESSIBILITY AND INCLUSION

We happily Hold Space for neurodivergent bodies, varied sensory requirements, and different energy levels.

Refund Policy

Refund Policy:

All ticket sales for the Somatic Dance convention on Sunday 19 April are final. Please review the following terms before completing your purchase:

  • No Refunds: We do not offer refunds for any reason, including change of mind, scheduling conflicts, or personal illness. This policy ensures we can meet our financial commitments to our venue and facilitators.
  • Ticket Transfers: If you are unable to attend, you may sell or gift your ticket to another person. You must notify us at [Your Email] with the new attendee’s full name and email address at least 48 hours before the event to ensure they are on the guest list.
  • Event Cancellation: In the event that the convention is cancelled by the organizers, all participants will receive a full refund of the ticket price.

Strategic Considerations for "No Refunds"

  • Visibility: To "reduce disputes" as you intended, this policy must be visible before the checkout button. On Eventbrite and OutSavvy, ensure the "Refund Policy" dropdown explicitly states "No Refunds."
  • The "Transfer" Buffer: Since somatic communities value peer-to-peer connection, emphasizing that tickets are transferable reduces the perceived financial risk for the buyer without costing you any revenue.
  • Consumer Rights Note: Under UK consumer law (specifically the Consumer Rights Act 2015 regarding "Services"), event organizers are generally permitted to have a no-refund policy for "leisure activities on a specific date," provided it is clearly stated at the point of sale.
