Sessions at SunFire Dance
Our workshops at SunFire Dance in Bournemouth are designed to inspire and transform through the art of Conscious Dance. Dive deeper into movement and explore the potential for personal growth and creativity. Join us on the dancefloor and discover the joy of expressive freedom.
Discover Conscious Dance
At SunFire Dance, our sessions focus on the unique practice of Conscious Dance, a mindful and expressive form of movement that encourages participants to connect with themselves and others on a deeper level. These sessions are open to all, regardless of experience or skill level, and provide a supportive environment where participants can explore the art of dance in a conscious and intentional manner. Through guided exercises, music, and collaborative activities, attendees learn to listen to their bodies, express their inner emotions, and embrace the present moment, making each session a journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
Tailored Sessions for Personal Growth
At SunFire Dance we encourage participants to let go of inhibitions, embrace their unique style, and build meaningful connections with others through the shared language of dance.
We have developed Ho'oponopono Embodied Movement Meditation sessions, which will be held in Boscombe and New Milton this autumn based on the ancient Hawai'ian ritual and teachings. You will be guided by our facilitators to dance your story of reconciliation in a movement journey to forgiveness, acceptance and clarity.

Offerings
Nurture Facilitators
We offer NURTURE sessions to co-facilitators who come along to share their experiences in leading groups in a nurturing environment. We connect in movement, sound and embrace. There is an open invitation to facilitators who would like to offer their gifts of nurturing others, and this will be reciprocated in turn.
Dates and times to be advised.
We offer Nurture sessions in response to our community's needs. We hold regular online gatherings to discuss various topics which then develop these into workshops.
