We believe movement matters and that everyone can dance.

Meet our team below.
​

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!
Adam Griffin
Adam 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. Adam is part of the Family Dance team and regularly facilitates along with Asher.
​
He’s a qualified Soul Motion teacher & CCI Co-counsellor. His 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
Trained as a drama movement therapist and in embodied leadership, I am a lifelong lover of dance. I also love to eat dark chocolate and smell wild roses.
I support various sessions and co-facilitate.

Asher has a degree B.A. Hons In Drama and Theatre Arts (Dance) and trained in physical theatre at Ecole International du Theatre Jacques Lecoq. He delivers dance workshops and classes in a wide range of contexts within the local community. Asher is passionate about the creative potential of dance, particularly improvised dance.

​
Through Movement for Life, Asher is delighted to co-lead Family Dance, making dance and creative exploration more accessible to the children, families and adults in the local community. Asher creates special moving stories at the beginning of dances for all to join in.



Harmony Isgolde
I have supported the women’s in-person sessions as an assistant since 2019. Now in 2025, after training to lead this work, I’ll be taking on the facilitator role along with two women who have all been in the sessions for many years.​
She brings a decade of movement practice experience, and in her wider life she's a massage therapist.
