The Seven Circles
of Majickal Bellydance
with Leanne Margaret
Join us as we thaw the winter chills and begin raising energy ready to devote to spring’s beginning. The Seven Circles Workshop will take place as the Winter Solstice passes and the Sun begins to lengthen our days
Focusing on our own private dance enjoyment, the Seven Circles Workshop is 2 hours of energy raising dance with some meditation breaks to contemplate our inner experience and rest the body. It dances like a taster workshop, including a warm up session and progressive dance drills to awaken the whole body and spirit.
The majick is in the meditation, drawing the dancer progessively into herself, where the circles can be felt and articulated into natural spiralling movements that need no instruction, once found within.
Participants need to be warm and comfortable, as dance drill sessions will be interspersed with carpeted floor rest. Dress in layers. Exercise clothing with a fitted top and soft scarf around the hips is adequate. No coin belts. They’ll stick in the carpet. Water in a covered bottle is a good idea.

When: Sunday 3rd July 1pm – 3pm
Style: Casual or lounge Bellydancing for personal enjoyment and wellbeing, with some esoteric content involving the human energy field.
Where: Yarra Valley Yoga Studio, 12 Auburn Road, Healesville
Arrival: Please park ONLY on front lawn or in driveway, as this is a residential street. Walk through big gates and the studio is the building in front of you.
Bookings: SMS or phone Leanne 0411 711 489, email majickal@me.com or respnd via facebook. Bookings essential as min and max numbers apply. Please book by 26th June.
Payment: $30 payable on the day in cash, or via paypal in time for the workshop as follows: majickal@hotmail.com.au. Thankyou

Melbourne Lockdown Number Six - Six Ways I Stay (Mostly) Sane

To say that many Melbournians are feeling a little maddened by our sixth lockdown would be an understatement. Social media posts are showing us starting to come apart at the seams, bickering amongst ourselves like grounded teenagers.  To be honest, life isn't so different for me. I still went to the shops, like a normal Friday. But I'm frustrated by my efforts at trying to teach new classes in belly dance and tarot. I started with two brand new groups, after months of marketing—and now our term of classes has been stalled until who knows when. So rather than dwelling on a feeling of treading water, surrounded by sharks, I'm going to focus on the things I do at home that make it a great place to be. The emphasis is on creating a warm nest, instead of a padded cell. 1. Routine Maintaining a routine that is as close to normal as possible really helps to stay connected to time, space and security. There's something instinctively comforting about daily routines. Our pets kno

My Medicine Box - Finding Resilience in Challenge

Anyone who read my very first blog post on this site back in 2014, will know that I had some trouble adapting to apartment life. Readers may have wondered whether I would be able to sustain it. Well, I did—for a while. In fact, I lasted seven years—a lot longer than I thought I would.  Seven is a mystical number that expresses the energy of learning through experience. This kind of learning isn't always comfortable, and often involves sacrifice. It took time for me to grow comfortable with the idea of relinquishing the family home, and all the stuff I'd accumulated. I grieved for my big house, even though I knew intuitively that I was moving forward. As I reduced my physical load to a density that my new apartment could hold, my spirit expanded. I felt free enough from domestic distractions to be able to focus on my creative work, and my healing from PTSD; which I felt were inextricably linked.  But when I realised how noisy my new home was, I wondered if I could focus.
