How would it feel to dance every week in your own potent circle of women?

A space to come home.
To move to the rhythm of your own playlists.
To journal with music, what is rising within you.
To speak the unspoken through your body. ❤️

I am calling four women only.
Four women willing to step into a sacred container with one another.
Just three other women... and you.
They may be women you already know, or you may come simply as yourself, a woman walking her own path, feeling the quiet pull to belong to something deeper.
This is a private journey that I will hold and guide.

Together, we will learn the foundations of this practice. And after three gatherings, if the circle feels ready, you will birth your own container—holding each other, witnessing each other and listening together,

My story is woven into this invitation.
I dance every Sunday night with the same three women.
Week after week we have returned to the same sacred fire.

After the first year, we noticed something, subtle, but strong.
Through the language of the body, beyond words, we have learned how to truly see one another. When we dance, we listen without speaking. The energy moves through one body and is felt and witnessed by the others and passed along, to be released.
A single gesture can carry many layers.
An expressive sweep of the hand can hold grief, joy, memory and release, it is not ours to question.
When emotion is allowed to move fully through the body freely, the resonance of the dance deepens and amplifies, we amplify..
- and the joy!! whoa the joy ###
Through many seasons of life, we have kept showing up for one another. it is now sixteen years since our first dance and we would never have imagined this connection could journey into this expansion. Yet we are still here.. dancing alongside one another in our raw, unspun beauty, and we wouldn't have it any other way! There are few places left unseen, yet there is still more to evolve and so it continues.. we are connected sisters in community, we are safe and we will dance till the end x

This is a call to four women who feel ready to create something like this in their own lives.
Yes, it takes courage...
But if something in your body is already whispering “yes… I am ready”
then this message was meant for you. ❤️

Thank you to my wild women - you know who you are x

Weekend mini retreats @ Sundance Studio Tania Bainbridge Within by Dari Kim Rayner Artist Tropical Tai Chi x

As promised… this month’s workshops are juicy. 🍑

Workshops are where we get to go beyond the regular class.

✨ More time to dive deeper and be open to curiosity.
✨ Space for teachers to combine & share their other passions.
✨ Create divine space, just for you.
✨ Explore something new and exciting.
✨ A chance for you to pause, reflect and reconnect.

Not everyone has the time (or dollars) to escape to Thailand or Indonesia for a retreat… but the truth is, you don’t have to travel far when you live in Mission Beach.

At the end of a long winding road, deep in the rainforest beside a babbling creek, Sundance Studio becomes your mini retreat.

For a few hours you can step out of the world and into something deeply nourishing. 🌿

This month I’ve created a flyer for every workshop so you can easily see what’s coming up and choose the experiences that call to you. Think of it as your weekend retreat menu right here in Mission Beach.

Bookings are now open — follow the links and secure your place.

Much love, Danielle 🌿

PS: Some excellent value, early bird discounts apply to some workshops - take a look!

Welcome to our month of March 🍒- it started with the sun and moved into a peaceful drizzle - the perfect medicine to quench the thirst of the rainforest... and our creek!

And we welcome the eclipse as something of an inward time.. more reflection on that later.

This month we have some exciting additions to our timetable.

🍇 Kim will open up a new time for her Pranayama breath session. Her first class for the new time, starts Friday, March 9th at 9am and will continue every Friday after that. If you would like to catch her this week, then join us for 6am session on Wednesday. A beautiful eclipse inward regulation practice.

🍓 Imo Kars will continue her Tuesday session with the new name: Somatic Stress Release Flow. We are hoping this encapsulates the energetics of this class more for people to understand the subtle realm that movement can access and the benefits you will receive. If you're curiosity is sparking some call to you, then come and join others who are now making this their favourite thing to do in the week.

🥭 Silence, meditation and movement are the elements to my offering every Friday morning at 7am. If you want to imbue a very feminine practice that honours your time and awakens the marma within you, then please join me; vibrations of earth serenity to flow into your weekend.

🥑 Aerial Silks Beginners has been going strong this year with an extra time added every fortnight on a Monday evening at 6pm; please contact me if you are interested in trying a class.

🍉 Yoga Remedial Therapy is feeling so cosy with our faithful regulars, please join if you feel called to open your Sunday by the creek, playing with rainforest energy. 7:30am

And the workshops this month are so juicy, that I will add an extra post just for workshops - this will be the start of something new, so each of you may easily find, plan and book your mini retreats every weekend. 🍑

Much love, Danielle 🌿

I LOVE it when daughter’s advocate for their mother’s strengths and passions!

Here, Courtney shares about her experience in detail of why she loves the practice so much.

“Qi Gong ~ one of the strongest energy enhancers out there.
The traditional form from ancient Chinese Medicine
The path between body and mind shortens when breath and movement are deliberately slowed down.
Intentional movements coupled with deep rhythmic belly breathing, allow us to move from the busy mind into our bodies.
Deep somatic releases become easier to harness, as we move away from the busy-ness of life and allow ourselves to ground and take control of our very life force within us.
Once you feel the literal *buzzing* of energy between the palms of your hands, you will come to understand what it is to harness this power, and allow yourself to understand this energy through the rest of your senses.
Liz, my incredible mum, has been studying and sharing her knowledge of Qi Gong and Tai Chi for well over a Decade, and is looking forward to sharing with you her Practice, with Tropical Tai Chi” - Courtney McCullough
