Exploring gender fluidity through dance & the divinity…

This is a beautiful podcast that I recorded for Natalie Orr, an incredible human and friend. I met Natalie many years ago in one of my nine lives, when I was directing and running a company in Leeds, which I created in 2005, called Element Dance (now owned and directed by Hannah Bertram and called […]

Happy New Year! (Yes really!)

Did you know we began a new year on Thursday 19th May 2022? In the Tzolkin calendar (also known as the Galactic Mayan cycle), a new 260-day cycle (instead of 365 day cycle) began on May 19, 2022! The Mayan calendar is my favourite way to follow the stars and my intuition, and is laid […]
