My heart is leaping Northward in such happy anticipation of the Dance in beautiful Northumberland, land of my ancestors. This 5-day event has become my most important renewal point of the year: a place where my body can deeply relax, be itself, express its beauty and its passion, be in stillness and to top it all, be fully witnessed and admired!

The reverberations within me of our work are immense. I came with no expectations and have left speechless. And all I want to do is dance. Thank you dear friends, thank you for more then words can express…it has been an absolute pleasure to have had the opportunity to meet you both

It was extraordinary, an overused adjective I know, but the three days for me were extraordinary.

So much I could report, describe, define but the words would only point to what I experienced. At times hard, easy, ecstatic, boring and…….

Thank you for your honesty, skill, compassion and humour.

And of course the beautiful energy, commitment and plain gotta dance of all the other bodies, minds & spirits in the room.

Each experience I have undergone through this magic of your Dance has brought a deeper connection and awareness of the I-Thou relationship which is, I feel, the only authentic means of real communication between Beings. Words cannot possibly enhance or describe an experience that has to be undertaken by individuals which, ultimately, ends with the collective “Ahhhh!” I wish I could dance with [Fred] and Colleen every week. So, until next [year]…Thank you, so very much.
