Discovering Your True Inner Dancer

Are you naturally living uninhibited, happy, boppy, fun and full of energy and vitality like the JIVE?
Do you long to unleash you LATIN-SIDE: smoulder-y, intense, passionate, sensual and alive with feeling?
Is it easy for you to let go of stress and flow beautifully in life, gliding effortlessly like the WALTZ?

It's Strictly Come Dancing Season on the TV and for many of us it is our "guilty pleasure". We dance around our lounges, engrossed in the razzmatazz of  the Strictly Vibe, loving the different mood of each dance.

For me there is a wonderful link between the feel good BBC programme and the tranformational power of the Vital Development system.  Both take people on a journey and both focus exclusively on uplifting those involved.

Dancing is truly a quick and easy way to improve your life and with Vital Development there is no stress about learning any steps - so even better!!!

Isabella Florshutz and I are collaborating to offer a special workshop on Saturday 24th October "Vital Danza Meets Strictly Come Dancing."  We are both huge fans of the show, loving the glamour and beauty of it all. We'd love to help you feel like a celebrating for a few hours.  For all the details click HERE

To find out more about your true inner dancer and how to expand your repertoire come and take a short quiz with me at The Starting Over well-being show at Emerson College Wednesday 21st October.  I have vouchers for half price entrance so drop me an email if you'd like to come along for half price and experience all the other free taster available to you.

Feedback from the taster session;
"Helen is an inspiration and a breath of fresh air, despite knowing no one, I was made to feel instantly welcome and a warm sense of belonging. Helen gently guided and empowered us to get in touch with ourselves, connect with others, and to be in this moment, free to express without judgement. I came away feeling relaxed, invigorated, and with a feeling of joy in my soul - THANK YOU!"  (S.T Horsham)

‘I love the venue for the new Vital Danza  group – the Yoga Garden yurt in Storrington.  I loved dancing in a round space, no dark corners away from the light.  It was great to able to dance outside in nature when the weather permitted.  And it was surprisingly easy to reach from East Brighton, courtesy of the Brighton by-pass.  Altogether, the yurty experience added to the delights of Vital Danza.’  (T.B. Brighton)

The First in a NEW series of Videos - sharing how the exercises of Vital Development can improve your health and happiness.

An exercise to de-stress, stop worrying and help you sleep.

Our culture promotes rational, logical thought as the "best" way to function in our society. We prize success in intellectual education and "hard-nosed business".  If we have a problem we right lists and weigh up the pros and cons.  This lifestyle often leaves us feeling pressurised, stressed, worried and unable to sleep soundly at night.

However, there is another way to be that is more relaxed, accepting and peaceful.  One way towards living like this is to be more embodied.  This means being more aware and focused on the feelings in our body, basing decisions on instincts, intuition and  gut reactions rather than trying to work in all out and "get it right"!

If this seems like a good idea but difficult to achieve Vital Danza can help.  Each class is carefully designed so that you can release the tension in your body, have fun, feel more joyful and then deeply relax in a supportive and caring environment.  

Here I wish to share with you just one of the many exercises that I know will help you de-stress, stop worrying and get better sleep.

Music to use for this exercise is: Oh My Love -John Lennon, Common Threads - Bobby Mc Ferrin,  Let the Earth be Strong - Helen Glavin

Of course,  Vital Danza is designed to be practised in a group setting. The facilitator will carefully plan a unique sequence of exercises for each class to enable the best experience for each participate. Do join me any Friday at 8.15pm at the Tree of Life Centre.  Or Tuesdays from 8th September at 2pm at the Yoga Garden.

Congratulations the Friday Group is Open to New Participants

Last week marked the one year anniversary of me running a weekly Friday night session at the Tree of Life Centre in Hove.  I want to celebrate this group and all the lovely people who have attend over the year, whether came once or twice or you are one of the wonderful regular dancers -each and every person added something unique to our joint experience.

The Tree of Life Studio is such a gorgeous place to dance it has a safe and comfortable atmosphere which enables participants to be confident and creative in their individual expression and authentic interaction.

Although each week the class can feel very different I am also following the tried and tested Vital Development system that is taught all over the world.  

• First, we dance to energising, joyful music to release stress, come into the body and the present moment.
• Second, we play with creative expression and embody a wide range of postive feelings.
• Third,  we slow down and become more aware of our internal world.
• Fourth, we incorporate gentle, sensitive healing touch.
• Lastly,  relax into the heart and allow our well-being and happiness to expand.                         

These sessions are suitable for beginners, you do NOT need to be a good dancer, simply ready to enjoy a fun, uplifting and empowering evening.

Please contact Helen on 077927 63106 if you have any questions.
