Hey you, Glad you made it here. I'm LEXX, an embodied DJ and facilitator. I hold free-movement dances that begin with grounding, build up to reach maximum f!ck it release, and end with a soft landing. You can think of it like a wave - building, reaching a peak and gently washing out. I'm delivering this event with Ren, an Essex-based sound therapist and mindfulness guide, who will perform a sound bath to hug our nervous systems after the dance.
THE VIBE
This is a loving space held by two Queer facilitators, and everybody is welcome to join. You don't need to have any dance experience. In fact, the less technical you can be, the better! You choose how you dance and you can't get it wrong. Respect each other and yourself.
THE SCHEDULE
Please arrive for 3:30PM. If you can only attend in part, please let me via [email protected].
• 3:40-3:50PM: Opening meditation.
• 3:50-5:20PM: Dance with LEXX.
• 5:20-6:00PM: Sound bath by Ren.

ACCESS
The Beehive Centre is fully accessible for wheelchair users. The hall in which the event is taking place is situated on the right as you enter the building. There are accessible toilets on the left as you enter the building. If you have any access requirements, please contact me on [email protected].
WHAT TO BRING
Beaut Autumn is with us, so I recommend that you bring a few layers which you can shed when you move and get warm, and put back on when you find stillness. You might want to bring a blanket if you want to get cosy for the sound bath. I'll be offering a warm drink (vegan, GF), so if you'd like some, please bring a cup.
TICKETS
The ticket prices reflect how much is needed to cover the venue and sound system hire, and to pay ourselves fairly for our time and skills. If money is a barrier to you joining at the moment, please get in touch via [email protected].
