What to expect:
This Open Floor Weekly Dance and Mediation Practice is conducted within a held space and supports embodiment and presence through a lightly guided dance journey.
There are no steps to learn or remember. It's about your remembering of you, yourself, your authentic movement and expression. An opportunity to deepen within yourself, to enquire and share the present moment with yourself and each other in expression creativity and artistry.
The music is diverse and ranges in volume. If you are sensitive to loud music, please take care of yourself and bring ear plugs if required.
Open Floor is generally practiced with bare feet. If you need shoes please wear non slip, soft flat shoes so you can feel the ground.
