Pulse
December 30
End of Year Special
Totnes, Devon, UK
THE DANCE IS SOLD OUT!
Spaces will not be available on the door
Next Pulse Jan 22nd @Studio 6
Pulse is a deeper drop-in movement space in south Devon.
We gather on the dancefloor. We use movement, music and collective intention to invite a vibrant field of energy and presence for ourselves and for the wider community.
Come and wrap up the year on the dancefloor: we’ll move together to integrate, digest and celebrate what’s passed – and invite energy into new possibilities for 2026.
.
VISION
Pulse is born of a desire to hold a regular deep dance space for the South Devon dance community.
We began with a series of three sessions in spring-summer, then went monthly in the autumn. This is an end of year special to wrap up 2025… Next year will see us relocate to the amazing Studio 6 in Dartington, as part of a weekly Thursday dance space there, alternating with Rosie Perks’ fortnightly closed group and David Ellis’ open Dance Home sessions.
.
STRUCTURE
The sessions will usually feature a warm-up, some teaching and a dancing journey through the Waves. There will be invitations to connect with other dancers and move in the group field – along with full encouragement to be who you are in the moment.
These dances are open: you can come to one, some, or all – as you like or are able.
And: there is an invitation is to participate regularly and be part of co-creating a space that holds depth, connection and continuity in the dance. There is a discount offered to dancers booking all the sessions in a series at once.
.
MAPS
The teaching framework for Pulse is The Way of the Dancer, Christian’s evolving synthesis of 5Rhythms and Movement Medicine with Taoist, Animist and contemporary Subcultural approaches to the dancefloor and community ritual space.
Prior experience of conscious dance practice can be helpful but is not essential.
If you’re new to this kind of dancing, please let us know on the day so we can orient you.

Context for Pricing:
A three-tier contribution system is offered in recognition that we have wide disparities in our access to financial resources. If those more well-resourced contribute more, this helps the dancefloor be accessible to dancers with less finance. Please consider the wider context and use your integrity in choosing what level you contribute. Thanks!
Please note: Tickets at the lowest level are limited.
If you are able, please pay the middle or higher level contributions, leaving the lower level tickets for those who need them. If the lowest level of contribution is out of reach for you, please contact us about bursaries.
