What is Music-Led Dance ... ?


Music-Led Dance is unguided by words.
I may suggest a theme, however, I leave it to your inner guide to
suggest movement whether that be quiet, small and on the floor or
energetic and noisey.

What people have said after
attending a
Music-Led Dance...


"I never like missing these 'Sunday morning Dance-church' sessions"

 

"Robert holds a deep permissive space for dropping into a personal exploration of
movement in the moment to a rich backdrop of sounds, in a group setting that is
both held and yet wide open to exploration.
No instruction. No parameters.
Just a deep invitation to explore the magic of our embodied expression to
sound and music unfathomably held beyond words
"

K. C.


"Robert's music led mornings are welcoming, free and safe.
There may be a thread to follow, supported/unfolded by his choice of music,
but it isn't necessary to be with unless it calls.
A recent dance on one's breath was gorgeous.
All in all, a lovely, warm and embodying way to spend my Sunday morning.
"

M. D.

 

"Robert has an innately magical way of bringing joy to  dance.
His music, however eclectic and surprising, always seems to hit the spot."

M. B

 

" I think you're holding something really special ..."
N. W.

 

" loving you in your depth, genius djing and
commitment to embodied movement and community.
"

H. C.

 

" I have been dancing at Robert's dances for years.
I love the diversity of the music and the freedom and
space Robert creates for complete self expression.
"


Chris F.

 

"I simply love, love, loved the evening:
I have attended many dance sessions, nonetheless I was pretty impressed."
