Music is the Healing Force of the Universe

You are invited to join us for a very special dancing journey into sound.
We’ll be weaving together diverse musical lineages: leaning into conscious dance maps, underground subcultures and the time-honoured human ritual of communing in rhythm, melody and togetherness.
All bodies welcome.

Schedule
1. Entering the embodied listening space + first musical journey, with FX10K
2. Embodying music: experiential enquiry with Christian
3. Break for rest, integration and connection
3. Two-hour music-led ritual dance journey with Christian.

This is a music-focussed, DJ-led deep dance space. We will move through multiple genres, time periods and lineages, spanning electronic, instrumental and organic music. There will be some teaching of maps that support dancers to go deeper into music. The journeys will also include a little microphone flow to offer pathways through the sound, invite your embodied full presence and facilitate an optimum experience for all.

Protocols
Respect for all bodies & cultures.
No talking, devices, or drugs/alcohol on the dancefloor.
