Creative, quirky and fascinated by how uniquely we are all wired it was natural to express this through songs, short stories, choreography and later through writing and directing short films. Dance for me is not only a language of communication but a symbol for everything that enriches life. Relationship, balance, drama, community and inner peace.

I live in Ipswich, Suffolk, England with wonderful Bethan and two therapists with whiskers and amazing purrs.

Happy New Year

2021 got off to a good start with an online zoom event on New Year's Day with many circle dancers and friends attending from all over the world. It was great to see so many people approximately 72, with their friendly faces enjoying the songs, dances and creativity throughout the session. Although dance is not quite the same on Zoom as being part of a circle, it is a good and necessary alternative Read more of this blog post »

“Music floods the mind, evoking moods, memories and sensations. The pulse compels the dancer to dive into a sparkling stream of motion and sensation.”
Stefan Freedman, Dance Wise

“We are going to be exploring ways that dancing can strengthen an individual and can benefit society. We’ll witness how dance is used in trauma recovery, mental health support, with young people at risk and in psychological and emotional growth. We’ll consider the brain science and neurology of dance and how dance can be used with groups in conflict.”
Stefan Freedman, Dance Wise

“What kind of styles?

There are circle dances inspired by Salsa, and others inspired by contemporary dance type moves, reggae, classical music and jazz. Everything can come under this umbrella, all with the idea that this is a social dance. We don't have to perform and we don't have to be perfect. We’re doing it for the way that we feel when dancing, the togetherness and connection.”
Stefan Freedman, Dance Wise

“Dancing rouses all the slumbering ghosts in your mansion. Senses tingle, imagination darts, and passions flush your cheeks. Spellbound by rhythms and intricate geometries, your day to day worries vanish. You are totally present.”

“Is it possible to step out of this realm which is beyond ordinary language and to depict its contours? That is the intention of this book, underpinned by experience, research and a chapter on brain science.”
