ing BAREFOOT DANCE, CREATE, CONNECT
Has come together after many years of my own personal dancing experience with total freedom.
Exploring different dance modalities with amazing teachers and facilitators and tapping into something deep within.
I was blessed, receiving the gift of remembering to listen and welcome my body's wisdom through movement.
This was exactly what I needed, pure joy and bliss, like nothing I've ever experienced before.
To bring in all together, leaning and exploring further the simple and insightful processes, the wisdom and depth my Transpersonal Art Therapy course brought to me was the next layer I needed. And finally, feeling confident enough to hold the space and facilitating various art therapy groups on the Coast. Plus, the help and encouragement of some amazing supportive friends and colleagues. That was the little nude I needed.
The joy of connection with the groups, tapping into our inner wisdom through movement, art, our stories and witnessing each other was another level of pure joy to be part of.
And so, BAREFOOT DANCE, CREATE, CONNECT, was born in 2016, a safe and sacred space to gather.
GATHERING TOGETHER
as a group
RECONNECTING to your AUTHENTIC SELF
LETTING GO and CELEBRATE LIFE

Barefoot Dance, Create, Connect is a safe and sacred space where the music and lyrics carry you along an intimate journey.
A place where you can awakening your authentic self and tap into more of yourself.
Each class is an invitation for you to dive into more of YOU.
Leaving the critic at the door with your shoes, and allow your bodies language to speak, revealing, releasing and expressing what at times words can not
A place to celebrate your magnificence
A place to let your inner-child to be free
A place where happy and sad tears can flow
And a place to let your body speak to you through its own wisdom.
There are no dance steps to lead you and no dance experience is needed
At the end of some classes,
following, after the dance, there is time for you to draw, collage or simple just let the experiences of the dance sit with you
Before we end we sit in circle, a time to share your experience of your dance and art if you choose to. Finally an offering of fruit and natural chocolates for you to enjoy and there are always lovely guidance cards with words of wisdom to end the night.
The dance is a way for you to discover another way for your body, to communicate
A way to express what your feeling at the moment.
A way to bring to the surface feelings and emotions that maybe laying dormant.
The dance is a way to communicate with the subconscious.
