Dear Dancers

What’s below: extra class/Rhythm Circle | Friday 5Rhythms | Weston-s-Mare | 6 day workshop | summary calendar

Happy New Year – and to support you creating that, we’ll be offering three classes a week, on Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays. And this week’s Thursday class is another ‘drop-in’ as a ‘taster’ for Rhythm Circle. So do come and dance – and get a sense of what we do differently in the closed group.

Thursday Jan 8, 7:30-10:00pm

Renewal – Waves/Heartbeat workshop with Bernadette

6 days at EarthSpirit Centre, Nr Glastonbury 
Jan 12-17, 2026

As we step into another new year, we gather in the dance to shed what no longer serves, and to open to what wants to move through us. Timed to follow after the busy holiday period itself, why not make space for you, and join the really lovely group that’s coming together already 🙂

See you on the dance floors. 

All Love, 
Jon for Bernadette & team xxx

Please arrive in time to be actually dancing at the advertised start times
– shorter queues, less hanging around, a better warm-up for all 🙂
