We would like to invite you to spend a day with us dancing with the theme of freedom. What does this mean to you?
This is a space to reconnect to your body, to your breath, to others & to open to the magic of the dance. We are here to co-create with you and support your journey to expand and deepen your movement practice.
Dancing is a great tool to untangle and free ourselves from stagnant energies.
In the structure of the day we’ll be working with movement, exploring exercises in pairs, meditation, inquiry and sharing.
It’s a freestyle movement which can look like anything and everything you feel. We’ll be stretching, maybe rolling on the floor, moving to music and follow where the body wants to take us.
No previous experience necessary. There are no age or fitness restrictions. Please be welcome as you are and gift yourself a luscious day of movement with us.
Please feel free to share this with anyone who may be interested.
we will be dancing dancing in Casa da Cultura

Why we work together/ how we see each other
Lily about Anne
“In the short time I’ve known Anne, I feel completely at home with her. She’s, strong, grounded and incredibly tuned in to energies. Her honesty and transparency is humbling, and her wisdom and insight is deeply inspiring. I see Anne as a wise shaman who holds beautiful space; be that singing, dancing, healing or having a cup of tea together.
I’m super excited to be co-creating with her and sharing our talents with you on this movement workshop. “
Anne About Lily
“To me Lily is a Human-light being.
In daily life and on the dancefloor I experience Lily as sweet, happy and full off energy and ready to do “The Work”.
More than once her happy face lit me up. She is a woman that can carry herself and shares her love of living. She is a good listener and can be straightforward in a loving way. When we met the first time over a year ago I knew I met a soul sister and wanted to work with her. Love sharing that space with you; sparks and love always arise when we are together.”
Love to see you on the dancefloor Lily and Anne
