I had Soul much fun. I was quite nervous tbh! I feel like I have a much better idea now of how to curate these ecstatic dance sets "better" going forward now. I am LOVING mixing in some very new styles for me! 

I chose this theme for many reasons. I have learned to become so aware of my thoughts. I observe and ask, are these my own thoughts? If I hear myself ruminating, I ask what is so important about this, that it requires repeating? Am I truly listening? If I start talking in circles or for too long, I wonder if maybe I'm nervous (and why) or wonder if I just don't feel heard.

So, rather than re-acting and try answering with my thinking brain, I do my best to drop into my Heart Soul space and let my thoughts land there. I ask, "What would my heart say /do?" I am ALWAYS surprised at how this information, this deep knowing, is very different than from what I would have ever created with my rational thinking brain. Always.

So the same applies when I am Dj'ing and dancing in intentional spaces. Am I performing? Am I connected heart to heart? Soul to Soul? Does my body actually want to move this way? I drop in, I commune with my infinite Soul Wisdom and what becomes, becomes.

It quite often brings me so much peace and joy... Or an opportunity for deeper retrospection / introspection and integration.

I invite you to ask:
"What would my heart do?"
"What does my Soul long for?"

There are no pictures or videos allowed at Dance Temple but I can say with all my heart that the love was palpable. I am not sure how many people were there but I am pretty sure I saw about 70ish smiling, sweaty faces! All ages. The youngest being under a year!

Thank you Dance Temple Comox Valley Aaron Handford for inviting me and Mark Play-Full Events for setting up your gear, and being my lead / space holder for the day!

What a sweet community. I was so honoured to have been a guest today!

Thank you Joanna Finch sharing your sound healing skills. You're a sweetheart.
Today I dedicated my set to my Mom Georgina Lewis to our beloved little Ivan #ivanthecuddler who left his body this past September. He's the reason I decided to become a Dance Temple Tender and I have met so many wicked peeps because of it. Thanks to the DT team and volunteers and my wicked hubbub Tony Hasenkrug supporting with holding space, setup and teardown.

Seeing my besties out there sending me the good vibes is everything.

Next up, Denman Dance Temple: Super Charged Spring Emergence March 15th! Already curating that set! It's always interesting how different vibes and little bits of inspiration come to me at the most random times. Like I get glimpses into the future.

See  you / feel you in the Dance
