The Stories We Hold

The Invitation
What are the stories you hold about who you are? And how are they shaping the way you live?
We all carry stories.
Stories about who we are. Who we should be. What we’re capable of. What is acceptable. Whether we’re too much, or not enough.
Some were born from our own experiences. Others were passed down through family, relationships, and the world around us.
Over time, we begin to believe them. To live inside them. To mistake them for who we are.
And these stories don’t only live in our minds. We carry them in our bodies.
When Our Stories Meet Movement
What have I learned to believe about myself?
What am I still carrying that may no longer be mine?
Where do I make myself smaller in order to belong?
Throughout this immersive weekend, we’ll explore these questions through movement.
Not to find the right answers. Not to fix ourselves. But to listen, to feel, and to become curious about what our bodies might reveal.
Through movement, inquiry, and mindful exploration, we’ll create space to recognise familiar patterns, reconnect with parts of ourselves, and discover new possibilities.
This is not about becoming someone else.
It’s about discovering more of who we already are, beyond the stories we’ve learned to live by.
Who Is This For?
For anyone curious about the stories they carry, the patterns they live by, and the possibility of moving beyond what feels familiar.
Whether you’re new to movement or have danced for years, you’re welcome here.
No previous dance experience is needed. No steps to learn. No right way to move.
Just a willingness to be curious.
