We believe movement matters and that everyone can dance.

Leela Fisk

I I initiated the committee of Movement for Life community group after a decade of leading community dance as an individual practitioner. As a new mother back then, I felt the need to create sanctuary-like spaces for caregivers to connect with their bodies, and to create community spaces for families to enjoy physical play together.

I’m a happier person and a better parent when I move creatively regularly in my life.

 

One of my favourite places to dance is in the sea! 

Treasurer

Adam Griffin

I can often be seen in the background at Movement for Life, either assisting in classes, setting up and twiddling sound system knobs or as a general sounding block for the road ahead. I was part of the Family Dance team which has now been passed on to a new group.

​

I'm a qualified Soul Motion teacher & CCI Co-counsellor. My teaching comes from a blend of somatic enquiry into the nature of our body felt sense and the practice of trust and being with our innate abilities as movement artists and wild beings.

Kate Reed

I am a lifelong lover of dance. I have a passion for connecting with aliveness through movement, nature and creative expression. I bring my openness, my love of dance and the natural landscape into my work, alongside my training in drama and movement therapy, environmental arts therapy and embodied leadership.

 

I also love to eat dark chocolate and smell wild roses.

 

I've been assisting and co-leading sessions with Movement for Life since 2019. 

Secretary

Harmony Isgolde

I currently co-lead Women in Movement, which is a project formally initiated by Movement for life to provide a movement space for mothers & female carers. I lead this group along with two women who have all been in the sessions for many years.​

​

I bring a decade of movement practice experience, and in my wider life I'm a massage therapist.
