Joy is Power
Joy is not small.�Joy is not trivial.
Joy is resistance.

Dancing on the grass at 7am with hundreds of women?�
That is power in motion.

Who remembers this moment?

The Sunrise

6:30am. Bare feet on the grass. The first light touching the ocean.

There is something deeply powerful about choosing to rise early for something bigger than ourselves.

This is what Valentine’s Day looks like in Byron Bay.

Would you join us again next year?

We’re calling on every woman in the Byron Shire, and across the whole Northern Rivers, to help us spread the word.

On Valentine’s Day each year, women come together dressed in red to DANCE and BREAK THE CHAIN - symbolically breaking the cycle of violence.

We dance to raise awareness, honour survivors, support change, and stand united.

And afterwards… we celebrate our strength with a healing ocean swim.

V-Day is a global activist movement to end violence against all women, girls, and the Earth. It’s powered by everyday grassroots leaders, artists, mothers, daughters, survivors and allies - all calling for change.

👉 Please SHARE this post. The more women who know, the more powerful we become. Let’s make sure every woman in the Northern Rivers knows that she is welcome, included, and needed.

❤️ You are part of the movement. Together we rise.

We rose together.�We stood together.�We danced together.

Thank you to every single soul who joined us on the grass this Valentine’s Day.

The energy we created at sunrise is still rippling through our community.

💜 Until next year…

This event is not connected to V-Day Byron Bay. We are just helping spread word.

Simone McIvor is putting together an International Women’s Day fundraiser on Sunday, March 8th at Coorabell Hall in support of Mākou, a social enterprise I’m in the early stages of building. We collaborate with women to create economic independence, preserve cultural traditions, and develop community-led projects across the Northern Territory, India, Africa, Palestine, and Afghanistan.

Funds raised from this event will go directly toward travel and on-the-ground engagement, letting us take a real grassroots approach: building genuine relationships, working alongside communities, and making sure every dollar has meaningful impact.

Afternoon kicks off with a Welcome to Country ceremony 🌿

More Dance opportunities:

“The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever– 20 July
Calling all Kates!

I'll be teaching the iconic Wuthering Heights dance on the beach at Brunswick Heads for four Saturdays from *8:00–9:00am*, leading up to the big day on *Sunday 20 July*, when we’ll gather as a *tragedy of Kates* to dance together... somewhere!

* Saturdays, 8–9am on the beach):*
- 24 May
- 14 June
- 28 June
- 12 July

No prior *Kate* experience is necessary — all Kates are welcome! All humans can be a Kate. The dance is only 3 minutes long: a passionate burst of movement that anyone can learn. It’s fine if you can’t make every session. We’ll stretch, move, and enjoy dancing in the sand together.

On *Sunday 20 July*, we’ll don our red dresses, place red flowers in our hair, and waft about with great tragic joy.

*It’s all free — I just fancy it.*

If you'd like to join, contact me to be added to the WhatsApp group.Then you can add other Kates to the group. “
