Welcome to SunFire Dance
SunFire Dance offers a space of conscious dance, connection, collaboration, freedom and creativity. SunFire Dance invites you to dance as gently or as wildly as you wish at our special conscious dance events.
Conscious Dance is an embodied practice of movement and free flowing dance that integrates emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing. We embark on a movement journey allowing moments of gentle flow, natural rhythm, release, elation, stillness and reflection. When we move, we can quiet the mind and innately embody the rhythm of the music, freeing our selves and opening us to new perspectives. There are no steps to follow, just your own feet and your own heartbeat. There will be moments of guided meditation and others where you can deep dive into the music.
SunFire Dance, which launched this Autumn, creates spaces that offer heartfelt and wonderous dance sessions both indoors and in nature. Dorset is a picturesque part of England and blessed with beautiful beaches, nurturing forests, glorious rivers, fields and clifftops – all of which are places for sacred and ecstatic connections to our Earth home.
Dance the change you choose to be - within yourself, your community and our world!

Wolf Moon - Sunday, 12 January 2025 (Branksome Chine Beach) Meeting earlier at 5.30pm to 7pm.
We meet in front of Rockwater Restaurant, close to the water's edge.
We attempt to make as little impact as possible, so we will have a small shelter to keep our equipment dry, a small altar circle and dance spread across the beach. Our headsets have a 300m range so you are free to roam. We dance in nature to celebrate our connection to earth. We do not have huge marquees. We leave the beach clean, with no evidence that we have been there.
All events are weather dependent and may be cancelled at the last minute.
Spaces are limited as we only have 30 headsets.
Please ensure you dress warmly. Bring a flask with something warm to drink, water, a torch, hot water bottle (optional), cosy blanket or shawl.
Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

The dancefloor remains a conversation free zone. We encourage non-verbal communication through gesture and flow, sounds and singing. You are welcome to chat in the adjacent lounge area.

Dancing barefoot allows us to connect with the Earth, move freely, allow us to remain grounded and connected. If it is chilly, you can wear non-slip warm socks. Some folks also like to wear dance shoes.
