WORK EXCHANGE OPPORTUNITY

Any artists out there wanting to journey through a transformative series?

Our delightful group member who was going to create art installations (or altars) in my upcoming movement rites series, starting TOMORROW, has had to pull out today due to sickness.
So there's an opportunity for someone who wants to come in as a work exchange to help create the "sacred architecture of the series" (like the images shown).

Maybe you love to create art but haven't shared it much. This series can be a beautiful place to co-create art that supports our critical rituals and dances in a nurturing community. It's a creative, rich and important role in the series.

Reach out to me directly if you're interested - I need to lock it in asap! 🙂

Last change to join our group for this upcoming committed series.

This 7-week journey for people moving through change, asking big questions, or longing to reconnect with body, soul, and community.

We gather weekly to dance, reflect, create, and mark what’s shifting in us. This is a modern-day rite of passage, rooted in Open Floor movement practice, ritual, and shared transformation.
If you’re at a threshold — or simply ready for something to move — you’re welcome.

Contact me if you have any questions or finances are the thing holding you back.

"The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance."

Our Warrandyte Saturday morning dance is one year old tomorrow!

Huge gratitude to all those who have sought refuge on these floor boards in the dance, with the tunes, the trees, the kindred spirits on this beautiful country we are blessed to gather on.

So cool. Hope to see you for a dance and chai tomorrow (10-12), North Warrandyte.

📣 Movement Rites Series begins in 3 weeks!

For those who haven't met me yet, I'm Henry Fowkes – Open Floor teacher, group facilitator, and Gestalt Psychotherapist with a passion for creating spaces where transformation can unfold naturally.

I believe in the paradoxical truth that real change happens when we stop trying so hard to change and instead inhabit what is truly here.

In this 9th Movement Rites series, we'll explore how embracing exactly where we are opens doorways to who we're becoming.

My approach? Down-to-earth, energetic, and deeply trusting of your innate resilience. I bring my whole self – parent, dancer, therapist, and perpetual student of life – to hold space for your journey.

🌟 Early bird offer ends in ONE WEEK!

If finances are the only thing holding you back from joining us, please reach out. I'm happy to discuss options.

Henry

I've been working hard creating a new website and launching a bunch Open Floor dance offerings for the year ahead so you can lock them in for some 'sacred structure' for your year.

Wishing you all in our dance community a nourishing summer period across the threshold to the New Year.
