Dawn in the gardens, dusk on the sand, and indoor rooms with proper sound and evolved lighting in between. Everything is back this week.

And here we are in some pics and clip living it at Happy Startups Summer Camp because that’s next week too. More on that in a minute. But first, let me tell you about the week.

Monday opens with St Ann’s Well Gardens at 6.30am. Just after sunrise, dew still on the grass, the park almost entirely to ourselves. Cacao, intention, dance, guided meditation and stretch. It’s the quietest, loveliest way to start a week.

Monday night, Shoreham returns to The Shoreham Centre 7.45pm, and we have some snazzy new visuals.

Tuesday, Patcham Memorial Hall is back 7.45pm.

Thursday is WildBop 5.30-7pm. Low tide on the wet sand behind Hove Lagoon. Headphones on, feet bare, the sea right there. This is the deepest tide of the month so there will be a lot of beautiful sand to dance on.

One thing on WildBop: the sea and sky decide, not me. If the weather makes it unworkable I’ll call it by 2pm on the day and refund you in full. Please do still book in though, as we need to account for headsets and cacao.

And then no Friday class, because I’m off to The Happy Startup School camp . Learning, inspiration, workshops, singing, dancing, sauna, good food and brilliant conversations, all with heart and soul. It’s where I go to grow my ideas and myself, oh and this year I’m going deeper and facilitating a Wildbop..! And I cannot wait.

All times, places and booking on the last slide and link in bio.

Let’s keep spreading love and dance peeps. Don’t hate, gyrate! 💕

This Week’s Outdoor Dance 🌊💃

The weather looks good, the tides are in position, we’re good to go for this week’s outside dancing, and you should join us!

I’ve been getting the most wonderful feedback on my sets lately (and lots of requests to share the playlists, I promise I’ll get to work on that).

For the WildBops (unguided), I lean into world flavours with waves of bass building underneath, inviting people to move in different ways and go deep. It’s an Afro/organic house core with tech house energy lifts, seasoned with world and Latin textures. We open with intention, and cacao is available too (optional). People often ask how I select the tunes: honestly, I spend hours and hours listening and searching, then I have a good old dance (with plant medicine!) to all of them before I know we’re good.

For JoyBop (guided), I lead you through routines you can follow, no experience or dance skill needed. Expect pop-house anthems, DnB energy, deep house grooves, and Afro/world flavours, all carefully picked to move you through every register. Familiar favourites meet fresh global finds.

I want to pay homage to the music and dance traditions from around the world that we have the honour and privilege to use. We are only ever enriched by other cultures, never diminished by them, and standing against racism matters more than ever right now.

Full format for each session is in the booking link, all in my Linktree bio. Please do book as headset numbers are limited!

Made for dancing. Made for joy. 💃

Do come and join us. Headphones for everyone, and for the daytime sessions bring your small humans if you like, they may well love the sand.

(The track is one of my favourites, takes me right back to my Copperdollar days . Immersive theatre honouring death through life and celebrating it. Mixed by the incredible DJ Stylus 🫶)

Ps. We will be at the end of the beach huts behind Hove lagoon. More deats on exact location on booking.

Tomorrow (Monday) we've got two lovely, nourishing dance opportunities for you:

**☕️ WildBop — 6.30-7.15am, St Ann's Well Gardens, Hove**

Cacao, intention setting, breathwork, and free-flowing (un-guided) dance to brilliant tunes mixing genres to bring out different moves, followed by meditation and a closing stretch to prepare you for the day ahead. All bodies welcome - come as you are, and leave with a full heart and a nourished body, ready for the week ahead.

**🪩 JoyBop Nights — 7-7.50pm, Buckingham Park, Shoreham (one-off)**

Guided dance to house, R&B, pop and a dash of DnB (basically anything we fancy), with easy-to-follow routines in our signature style. This was Mumrave, now open to all - a one-off pop-up before we return to Shoreham Centre in September. A great one to join if you've never been, or haven't been in a while.

Both sessions use our silent disco headsets.

**Tuesday:** JoyBop Nights returns to Patcham Peace Gardens, 7.30-8.20pm.

Ok so we may be setting you free with your dancing in WildBops and it’s amazing and we WILL continue to..! (Highly suggesting you come and give it a go..!)

But there is still a place for guided dance, and Mumrave has evolved into JoyBop Nights, which means dance moves we still lead that you follow but to all sorts of amazing tunes: electronic music including house and DnB, as well as some pop, RnB, world flavours and anything else we fancy…!

And Monday we’re doing a special pop up at Buckingham Park, Shoreham (with our silent disco headsets!) with a load of our fave easy to follow routines. 7-7.50pm.

We are also doing Patcham Tuesday at the Peace Gardens (near Patcham Memorial Hall), Tues 7.30pm…

Come and move to great tunes without overthinking it, it’s a thing, and us choosing love pair invite ya.

Link in bio to book the things (and you should!)

PS We choose love, always. So sad about the Palestinian family who died in the sea at Shoreham, and sickened by the disturbing comments people are making then being here. Just Choose love. It’s really as simple as that.
