Some lovely photos from Somatic Healing Dance Journey with Gayle Newbolt last Friday! Thanks for visiting, Gayle.

"At a somatic healing dance journey the invitation is simple — to come home to your body.
These gatherings are spaces of curiosity, play and gentle exploration, where somatic practice meets conscious movement and dance. Followed by the integration and rest your nervous system is craving. "

Check out these absolutely lovely snaps from Jounce Ensemble's Wild at Heart concert from last Sunday.

'Wild at Heart' was a concert of original compositions capturing the Tasmanian wilderness and environment through beautiful melodies and haunting soundscapes. Featuring Harps, Flutes, violin, cor anglais, recorder, mandolins, guitar and cello - we were so happy to have Jounce Ensemble visit!
