The Embodied Space

MOVEMENT LAB

When I started out to create with this space— I had an idea of what it could be, what I wanted with my mind. What has been evolving is so much better/bigger/beyond that which I could ever have anticipated, hoped or planned for!
Honestly.

I feel so humbled. So grateful.
So much energy in motion; so emotional!

I feel reminded over and again... Reminded of why, not that I’d forgotten, more remembering what parts of me already intuitively knew.

The level of vulnerability that goes way beyond the movement and into the honesty, the sharing of self, the internal struggle we ‘all’ have in our own unique ways to move freely and as ourselves in the world. The things that stop us. The ache of invitation that is a gentle quiet whisper within one’s own body, that at some point becomes a truth that moves us.

The truth that lives in the body!

What I wanna say is — do the thing that scares you, that feels just beyond your comfort zone, cause this; me creating this; inviting this, this was that! And the inner expansion and the life of it’s own that Movement Lab has taken on, is so beyond…it’s quite literally expanding me.

To those who move with me…you have my admiration, my humble gratitude, my pride; I’m so damn proud of you for trusting YOUR own bodies and leaning in so deeply to yourselves. Your body’s wisdom! My own learning from YOU and the excitement and utter joy of moving WITH.

Thankyou, from my heart to yours for moving with me!

I want to remind you that you are the earth.

Let me take you on a journey, into yourself, into your body, to return to the earth and the human you are and then, fortified and cracked open, rise.

Cause for me…the connection to my depths, the earth. Always the earth. She, she, her wisdom, woven deeply with my being, and knowing that I am held by the earth and by my own being means I can let go and surrender to the dance that comes from these depths within. I have somewhere to let go from!

This, currently is what’s going on in my head and heart as I’m planning my set.

What I’m learning as I go is —
— The practical reality that bpm’s need to be somewhat close to each other. And I have a lot of very spread out bpm’s atm.
— The music I lose my s**t to and find myself in other realms in on the dance floor, may actually not be the music I end up playing. Although there will still be good reason to get primal and wild, cause movement is human. And that’s what I want to remind you and me both of.
— How I feel while dancing and how I feel while listening with the intention to curate and build something that feels spiritual, they’re not exactly the same, somehow.
— I’m finding my why, which is less about the dance floor and more about the soundscape and the experiment of waving sounds that make me feel pulled deeper into my being. This is first for me. Maybe not the best thing for a DJ to admit. But also, in all other areas of my life, if I don’t do it for me first, there’s no power, no presence, nothing sacred behind it!
— I might be finding myself very seriously recording my own voice to get the sounds that I want…but we’ll see. Tis already plenty to learn!!

— And lastly, this is sacred. I am being cracked open over and over. Tears. Gratitude. The invitation and need to reflect on the journey I have been on — in my movement and dance, in owning myself and my presence in the world.

So much is coming up— I mean, I was mercilessly teased as a kid/teenager/even young adult for my taste in music and I’m gone get up there and lay bare my taste in music.

My own dance, healed me. Continues to heal me. I didn’t start moving my body until I was 28 and had been crook with chronic fatigue for almost a decade— so this is sacred work as far as I’m concerned. Not just a physical thing. A primal thing- a human who is connected to the earth, the universe, themselves and their people thing.

And currently in my movement I am discovering the utter delight of moving WITH MY CREW! How much it matters to be on the dance floor with the people I love, who I can bump shoulders with and weave bodies with, share sweat with, anticipate beat drops and make primal noise with.

I’ve always had a reverence and respect for the DJ’s in this community who hold me on the dance floor and invite me into my depths and into my body and into the play and utter abandon that loves there. Let me tell you, my mad respect of you has deepened!!

Anyway…
Please do, come, move with me.
And not just me, many others laying themselves bare on the decks. Meeting others with completely different goals and desires, come and express this through sound! Hell yeah!!

You know how to move. It’s written in your body, as ancient as time, as deep as the trees, as primal as the earth herself.
And over and over I have conversations with humans who have found themselves in the movement, who want to move their bodies more, who want to connect and move with others. So I created this space where we can do just that!
LAB — as in lavatory, cause there isn’t a right way, just invitation and possibility unfolding into a he next invitation and possibility.
Not to mention deeply nourish go a d a bunch of fun!! Come roll around on the floor, connect to yourself, discover brew movement and play with other humans!

SET TIME & TICKETS out soon
Follow DJ me —

This is actually really edgy for me. I dance like a wild thing on the dance floor, which has been a journey and unfolding, and deeply healing for me— but the fact that I’m gonna be up in front of everyone — is buzzing at the back of my mind as eeeek and freak. Parts of me are frozen with fear!! I know I’ll be fine, I’ll probably have more fun than I can even imagine, but it’s an edge. It’s actually really hard for me to share that I’m doing this — incase you think a thing about me, which obviously I cannot controls so…
…but— more deeply than that and what you may or may not think…I’d love for my crew to be there!! So COME DANCE WITH ME WHILE I SPIN THE TUNES that MOVE ME in all the ways!! Eeeeekkk. Cause that, in the end is what matters. The depth and the connection and freedom that the dance floor had brought and I fed within me!!

FANCY PANTS
29 August, 7pm–10pm
Ragù & Co
TICKETS also available now —
https://events.humanitix.com/fancy-pants

For multiple reasons I am so damn excited about this. One of them being — I’ve lost count of the times I’ve had conversation about having a pretty little dress or a nice tie or some item of clothing that one wishes they have more occasions to wear.
So THIS IS THAT!
ALSO — I have a lot of very sexy friends I’d like to see decked out in their best! You, specifically reading this! I think you’d look schmick in whatever our best is! AND I wanna share an evening of fancy dress and fancy food and connection.
Also, the mezzanine at Ragú & Co is pretty sweet. Please do come dine with ussss!

MAD HATTERS TEA PARTY
26 September, 4pm–8pm
The Dock Studios
TICKETS out soon

Again. So many conversations about needing more excuses to dress up. I do believe we’re all just big kids waiting to play dress up again!
This is gonna be mad. And wild.
And I’m super excited for what the team is cooking up, literally, our very own are catering and decorating and gonna bring a wild world of chaos and connection together. Op shops are being raided of their teapots and mismatched crockery and cautery. There will be dancing and colour and conversation.
We’re all a little mad…and THIS is gonna be a dream come true. Pull out your most crazy and colourful outfits, let your self expression guide you. Big. Loud. Crazy. Fun!
Come one and all to Wonderland!

💫

Everything THE EMBODIED SPACE creates is centred around exploiting, inviting and creating spaces for connection to self, earth and other!
