📰 DANCE BODY MIND® TEACHER TRAINING FEATURED BY REPs

This one means a lot.

For more than 15 years, we’ve been saying that belly dance deserves to be recognised as more than performance.

As movement.
As embodiment.
As confidence.
As connection.
As a powerful way for women to come back into their bodies.

And now REPs — the Register of Exercise Professionals — has featured Dance Body Mind® in its article:

“Belly Dance, Body Confidence and the Future of Holistic Movement.”

The article explores the growing place of belly dance within fitness and wellbeing — and features Dance Body Mind® as an example of belly dance education in practice.

From small classes in London to 180+ certified teachers across 15+ countries, this has become something much bigger than I could have imagined when I began.

And we’re not done.

We’re heading towards 200 certified Dance Body Mind® teachers worldwide.

So perhaps the next chapter belongs to you.

Will you be Teacher #200? 💗

✨ Teacher Training enrolment is currently open.

We were taught to be desirable, but not to desire.

Somewhere along the way, femininity became something to perform.
Something to be watched. Judged. Approved of.

But what happens when we stop dancing for the gaze — and start dancing to feel ourselves again?

The belly. The hips. The breath. The softness. The pleasure. The power.

For me, belly dance has become less and less about performance — and more about embodiment.

A way for women to come back into their bodies.
To reclaim sensuality without apology.
To experience femininity from the inside rather than perform it from the outside.

Maybe we were never meant to learn how to be sensual.
Maybe we were meant to remember.

This is Dance Body Mind. 🩷

Last year I went to Ideas Fest with a little thought in my head:

“One day, I want to be on that stage.”

This September, I’m going back as a speaker. ✨

I originally discovered Ideas Fest through the wonderful and I had absolutely no idea that one year later I’d be joining this extraordinary gathering of creators, founders, entrepreneurs and investors.

I’ll be bringing a subject that has become central to everything I do: Creative Health.

The power of dance, movement, creativity and expression to reconnect us with ourselves.

Because we live in a world constantly teaching us how to consume.

But sometimes what we need isn’t something else to consume.

We need to create.
We need to move.
We need to express.
We need to come home to ourselves.

Thank you Tonia for introducing me to this incredible world and for always being my inspiration as a woman, business leader, wonderful chef and amazing mother❤️

And — I cannot WAIT.

🎟️ There’s still time to enter the FREE ticket prize draw — it closes tomorrow, 12 August!

Maybe this year you’ll be standing there with your own little dream. ✨

✨ BIG NEWS…

Sometimes life surprises you in the most beautiful way.

I’m incredibly honoured to share that this September I’ll be speaking at Ideas Fest Ideas Fest often described as the UK’s
“Glastonbury for Entrepreneurs”

Over 6,000 founders, entrepreneurs, investors and business leaders come together for two days of ideas, collaboration and inspiration.

I’ll be joining a panel on Burnout Recovery, sharing why I believe burnout isn’t just about doing less it’s about reconnecting with who we are before we lose ourselves.

Looking at this year’s programme honestly gave me a pinch-me moment. To be invited into a community that brings together world-class founders, innovators and business leaders is something I’m deeply grateful for.

When I started teaching dance over 15 years ago, I could never have imagined this path.

Today, through Dance Body Mind®, Radiant Girl Project CIC, Symphony of Lights, my book, and our growing Creative Health work, I have the privilege of sharing a message I care deeply about:

Thank you to everyone who has supported this journey. Every class, every conversation, every performance and every woman I’ve had the privilege of working with has helped shape this moment.

See you at Ideas Fest! 💛
