Further info

We work with community partners, charities, and safe spaces to ensure accessible delivery across Essex. Services are delivered in-person through community classes and workshops, or online via guided movement videos and support materials. Participants do not need any dance experience - just a willingness to move at their own pace in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. 

Survivor Steps: A six week, fully funded programme where movement is used as a tool to rebuild confidence, ease anxiety, and reconnect with yourself. It’s the only trauma-informed movement therapy class of its kind in the UK, created specifically for women who are looking for a way to feel more like themselves again.

Move Through This: A gentle, low-pressure movement class for women who want a bit of space in their week to breathe, move, and feel a sense of ease in their body and mind.Move Through This is not a traditional dance class. It’s a carefully held space that uses elements of dance, mindfulness and body awareness to support nervous system regulation, emotional release and reconnection with self.
