Flying Fox Therapeutic Dance & Movement workshop at St Werburghs Community Centre
See event details

A event held at St Werburghs Community Centre on Saturday 13th May. The event starts at 17:00.


Dance with Flying Fox is a dance journey with live music tailored to dancers’ moment-to-moment vibration, coming home to our bodies and exploring our authentic movement, emotion, social connections, and spirituality.

The framework of Dance with Flying Fox is rooted in Taoism and dance culture from southwest China, where dance is part of our daily life. In this dance culture, we dance to imitate, exaggerate, elaborate, communicate, and transform our experience of life; men working in the field, women doing laundry by the river, children playing, fox preying… It is a way of keeping in touch with our experience and embodied process through moving perspectives. I also blend in various movement traditions and psychotherapy, e.g., sufi-dance, movement meditation, contact improvisation, existential psychotherapy, and expressive art therapy.

Key elements of my dance journey include:
• Finding freedom of motion in our emotional, social, physical, and spiritual being. Letting go of judgments
• Widening our dance repertoire by increasing awareness and breaking away from habits
• (Re)establishing connections to ourselves and others with loving intention

In this session (13th May 2023) The theme for this session is: Alchemy of your dancing elements.
- Explore textures and quality of your movement
- Find your elements in dance - gold, wood, water, fire and earth
- Develop somatic attunement and movement harmony with other
- Sound journey by Artist and DJ JiMu
