Creative Dance and Movement Groups

Who are these groups for?

For any individual who would like to take time out, and focus on their own personal development through a creative dance and movement process. You are welcome whether you are a professional, housewife, dancer, novice or experienced mover, or someone suffering from an ongoing physical illness. The entry requirement is a willingness to experience moving and ‘being moved’ through one’s body-self expression.

The purpose of these groups

This will allow individuals to become more in touch with themselves from a bodily perspective. Following a developmental body movement prospective, participants may come to appreciate their bodily senses and learn to listen to its language - a contrast to the busy modem world that we live in. Being creative may access a greater understanding of self through connecting thoughts and feelings with body action. The group context enables people to share these new felt experiences at will. Please note that I run these groups as a movement specialist and not an altemate to therapy or counselling.

Practical Details

There are two separate groups running on a Saturdays once a month between February and July 2003 providing three hours of creative exploration and a 15-minute break. The number of places is limited to keep a relaxed and personal atmosphere.

Bookings
