What is Music-Led
Dance ... ?
Music-Led Dance is unguided by words.
I may suggest a theme, however, I leave it to your
inner guide to
suggest movement whether that be quiet, small and
on the floor or
energetic and noisey.

What
people have said after
attending a Music-Led
Dance...
"I never like missing these 'Sunday morning
Dance-church' sessions"
"Robert holds a deep
permissive space for dropping into a personal
exploration of
movement in the moment to a rich backdrop of
sounds, in a group setting that is
both held and yet wide open to exploration.
No instruction. No parameters.
Just a deep invitation to explore the magic of
our embodied expression to
sound and music unfathomably held beyond words"
K. C.
"Robert's music led mornings are welcoming,
free and safe.
There may be a thread to follow,
supported/unfolded by his choice of music,
but it isn't necessary to be with unless it
calls.
A recent dance on one's breath was gorgeous.
All in all, a lovely, warm and embodying way to
spend my Sunday morning."
M. D.
"Robert
has an innately magical way of bringing joy
to dance.
His music, however eclectic and surprising,
always seems to hit the spot."
M. B
" I
think you're holding something really special ..."
N. W.
" loving
you in your depth, genius djing and
commitment to embodied movement and community.
"
H. C.
" I have been dancing
at Robert's dances for years.
I love the diversity of the music and the freedom
and
space Robert creates for complete self expression.
"
Chris F.
"I simply love, love,
loved the evening:
I have attended many dance sessions, nonetheless I
was pretty impressed."
