PULSE is a deeper drop-in movement space in south Devon. We gather on the dancefloor. We use movement, music and collective intention to invite a vibrant field of energy and presence for ourselves and for the wider community. Pulse is open to anyone wanting to dance: bodies are welcomed in all embodiments of ability, shape, gender, ethnicity, neuronature, age and culture.
STRUCTURE
The sessions will usually feature a warm-up, some teaching and a dancing journey through the Waves. There will be invitations to connect with other dancers and move in the group field – along with full encouragement to be who you are in the moment.
These dances are open: you can come to one, some, or all – as you like or are able.
And: there is an invitation is to participate regularly and be part of co-creating a space that holds depth, connection and continuity in the dance. There is a discount offered to dancers booking all the sessions in a series at once.
VISION
Pulse is born of a desire to hold a regular deep dance space for the South Devon dance community.
We begin with a series of three sessions, launching in the spring and moving into summer. Another series is planned for the autumn. Then let’s see how things evolve 🙂
MAPS
The teaching framework for Pulse is The Way of the Dancer, Christian’s evolving synthesis of 5Rhythms and Movement Medicine with Taoist, Animist and contemporary Subcultural approaches to the dancefloor and community ritual space.
Prior experience of conscious dance practice can be helpful but is not essential.
If you’re new to this kind of dancing, please let us know on the day so we can orient you.
