The first half of our class consists of warm up routines to various tracks and the second half builds on a dance routine over 4 weeks to give everyone the chance to learn it before changing to a new one. It is great fun and gives us the escape from our demanding lifestyles and demanding children. Not just for mums, people of all ages (over 18s) come to our classes and the atmosphere is relaxed and friendly.

White Coconut Sky

2009-05-30T15:39:00.003+01:00

White, white, sweet coconut sky
Just how high am I?

Shred me up in to little pieces
Take me where my love increases.

Far above, beyond the clouds
Take me there for crying out loud!

Anywhere is better than here
Amongst your misty whitness my life becomes clear.

The milky sweetness of your light
Will lead the way, will change my sight.

White, white, sweet coconut sky
Its a load of bollocks that the end is nigh!

Self Induced Mutation

2009-05-18T18:22:00.004+01:00

I wish I never felt this way
but helplessness is what I'll pay
to change myself, to pass the test
not knowing if i'm cursed or blessed.

I simply feel complicated
dark and fake, infatuated
Oh the pain that fills my stead
What's the matter? Feed your head!

Emotional anxiety
lost in my own hypocrisy.

How I feel the utter anguish
of self-induced mutation.

Dust and Ashes

2009-05-15T14:11:00.004+01:00

Can you hold on tight to me?
Drowning midst this dark debris.

Falling down on top of us
Very soon we'll feel the crush.

Lost the breath that i once had
And the warmth around me clad.

It all seems to crumble down
Dust and Ashes turn us brown.

Moment to Moment

2009-04-02T18:05:00.003+01:00

Waves of faded colour from the distant past
Live moment to moment as nothing can last.
Glide on through the cities, street after street
The walker, his movements are graceful yet fleet.
Light as a feather and clever, he's nimble
Taking each step as a definite symbol.
Live moment to moment as nothing can last
Faded are the colours from the distant past.

Intensity

2009-02-15T17:02:00.003Z

Intense the Colour Bright
Moves at the speed of light.
For fortunes seem untrue
In a direction new.

With greatest force
Yet full of grace
Trying to penetrate the rat race.

Nothing is done half-heartedly
Strength and love for Eternity.

Silence

2009-01-29T14:00:00.005Z

A silence fell.
A silence came.
Across the land and over the gloomy haze.
No misty fog nor twisted sight,
Just moon and stars,
A silent night.

To close to the edge but not quite far enough to fall

Dawn a Day
With life.
A moment.
Something new
Refreshing and bold.
Light, love, laughter
Warmth.

A change.
Something beautiful
Enlightening and bright.

Contentment.

Dawn a Day
With passion.
A sight.
Something created
Timeless and true.

Amor Vincit Omnia

2008-11-16T21:47:00.005Z

Heaven on Earth never means enough...
From the Cosmic fire to the flowing water of the world
Love conquers everything but, it is this we often forget.

What she said...

2008-11-16T21:42:00.003Z

Coming from where I come from, you just have to get on with it. Thats what life is. You just have to get on with it. You can't be indulgent enough to whine about stuff. Its about being useful. I don't have time to get mad or bitter or depressed or anything. I just want to have a good ending to the story... M.I.A

Impulse

2008-09-30T21:10:00.006+01:00

Follow an instict
feel an impulse
let your unconcious take control.

React with warmth, touch and love
but keep it organic
its your own.

Words and actions
less than thought.
Touch and warmth
of friends, of strangers.

Follow an instinct, let it be.
Feel an impulse running straight through me.

Lydford Gorge

2008-09-10T21:54:00.007+01:00

Empty space of joy and sorrow,
echo through the eternal womb.
Dreaming of perfect tomorrow,
hope/fear;expectation loom.

Where should i go and what should i see?
Circular patterns of extremity.
Follow the water that trickles down,
from places rare yet often found.

Reap

2008-08-05T21:48:00.004+01:00

Angel or demoned?
Friend or foe?
Whos to know? I reap, reap, reap what I sew.

Faces they change,
familar to strange
or seeming weirdly a glow...

But who's to know? You reap, reap, reap what you sew.

Just in your head?
Its just in your head.
or, perhaps, its your senses' instead?

Angel or demoned?
Friend or foe?
Who's to know? When we reap, reap, reap what we sew.

Osho Zen tarot...

2008-08-05T21:08:00.005+01:00

I been trying to learn how to read and interpret tarot cards for the last year or so. I became intrested in them when I decided i wanted to start listening to my inner guide/my unconcious mind and delve into divination... i discovered tarot to be the most accurate and mind inhancing source to use. Firstly the cards are beautiful, they reflect true human feelings and situations through symbolisim and imagery. Secondly they help u to answer questions you want to know the answers to and act as a guide... they really get me thinking! I like the idea of being able to make contact with my inner guide through the cards. I would defently advise others to give them a try, i also think they act as a type of meditation and can give you advice you may not be able to recieve from another person.

ANYWAY, i was using rider-waite as my first tarot and then my friend brought me some zen tarot... well i have to say i am loving them soooo much. They focus more on the here/now aspect of the situation in question and i really feel i can connect with them. Its very important that u find a tarot deck that suits you!
I agree with the meanings behind the cards and they speak to me in ways other decks have not... being very intrested in zen philosophy i feel these cards hit the nail on the head! Was wonderinng if anyone else uses them? or what your view is on Osho? i have not quite worked out if I like him or not... i think his cards are brilliant though! ;-)

'Life is the game of games, the ultimate game. It has tremendous meaning if you take it as a game and you don't become serious about it. If you remain simple and innocent, the game is going to impart many things to you.' - OSHO

Make someone see

2008-08-02T22:26:00.002+01:00

Don't just dance for yourself. Include other people; engage them in the beauty of dancing and change someone's life!

Footwork...Pathwork...Lifework. Life in motion. Love in motion. Live in motion... Devotion to the motion of dance! Day in motion. Night in motion... The notion to the motion of dance!

Up Above By Amy Rennie

2008-08-02T22:18:00.004+01:00

I want to pick the skies apart in the light, in the dark.
Understand the voice that calls in the night, in my heart.
See it all from up above, full of light and full of love.
Understand the true nature of things, what life takes and what life brings...

The Creator's joy is in creation itself; there is no other reward.

2008-08-02T20:24:00.000+01:00

Nijinsky, was asked once, "You dance before big audiences-don't you feel nervous?" He said, "As far as I am concerned, I feel nervous, but only to the point before the dance starts. Once I am in my dance I am absolutely alone, there is nobody else. Not only do others disappear, a moment comes sometimes-and that is the greatest moment-when I myself disappear and only the dance remains."
