Soul Power
2-day Immersion
February 8th - 9th 2025
London, UK
Take a deep journey on the dancefloor, bringing Body, Heart and Mind together as a way to awaken Soulful consciousness.
Soul Power is a new immersion for 2025. This workshop will invite deep dancefloor journeys to explore how soulful being occurs when our physical, emotional and mental aspects are fully integrated and awake.
Our dance space will be the beautiful meditation hall at Colet House, with its wooden floor, big windows and long history of movement and conscious practice.
The dancefloor is a place where our souls awaken…
Dancing brings us into Body: this physicality is our living vessel for everything.
Moving in the landscapes of the Heart, we can feel more and metabolise our emotions – freeing up the energy that lives inside them. Exploring Mind as a embodied phenomenon brings us into creative and conscious relationship with what is real.
Gabrielle Roth defined the Soul as the alignment (or integration) of Body, Heart and Mind together. Movement enables this possibility and liberates us to become more of who we are. Coming to dance and do this freedom work together has its own particular potency.
What is an Immersion?
Immersions are a way to dive deep into the dance. They give time for experiential study of movement as meditation practice. They give space to the natural, healing and creative process that unfolds on the dancefloor. And they ignite the possibility of surrendering to the ecstatic experience that is dancing for long periods of time!
We will work and play with the core movement maps of The Way of the Dancer, Christian’s fusionary approach to the dancefloor, which integrates 5Rhythms and Movement Medicine with Taoist practice, Animist perspectives and other embodied pathways.
We dance solo, we move with others and we explore as a group.
We gather with a basis of respect and celebration of all bodies, expressions and ways of moving.
We use these protocols as a foundation for a strong, safe container
The journey will include an invitation to prepare before the workshop, and resources to support you to integrate the experience into everyday life.
All bodies welcome.

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!

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.
