Dance with Your Dharma

22/10/2026

People sometimes ask me what I actually do.

Am I an author? A speaker? A presenter? A mentor? A dancer?

The honest answer is that I do one thing, in many different ways.

Everything I create explores the same question: what would it take to live a life that truly feels like your own?

Think of it as one house with many doorways.

The Page: my books, articles and publishing imprint.
The Stage: talks, dance and live events.
The Screen: presenting, podcasting and voiceover.
The Soul: consultations, the Academy, retreats and the Dharma Diploma.

You don't need to walk through every door. You only need the one that's right for you, right now.

Journey from Karma to Dharma® is the house. Every doorway leads to the same place: remembering who you are.

Which doorway are you most drawn to? Tell me below.

Every activity at my Glastonbury retreat in January is optional. Join in the yoga, breathwork and dance embodiment workshops, or sit one out and rest. You decide what you need.

I'm Nikita and my retreats are deep, like a mirror. You'll see the patterns, beliefs and parts of yourself you usually keep out of sight. That is shadow work, and it can be uncomfortable.

I've held space for people for many years, so you can go to those places with someone steady beside you. You won't be rushed, pushed or put on show.

On the outside, you look fine. On the inside, you're ready to see what's really there. I help you break the patterns holding you back and create a life that feels like your own.

This is for people who feel steady enough in their lives to look at themselves honestly.

Happy October!

A new month calls for new inspiration. I have been reflecting recently and realised that I've been through three identity thresholds.

The first was at the age of 16 when I legally changed my name. After I declared it, my grades increased and my confidence enhanced almost overnight. I went from a shy child to a sassy teenager by embodying the new persona of my name.

The second time was when I was diagnosed with an incurable illness. I was 26 and had just launched my dance studio days before. I was on cloud nine and suddenly my life came crushing down. Doctors said I would be on medication for life and even then I would have a shorter life expectancy.

My most recent identity rebirth was last year when I turned 40 and closed down my studio after 20 years. Again it was scary, bold and brave but I knew I had to follow my calling.

These 3 events are not just life transitions - they were complete identity reinventions. Thankfully I had the tools to navigate each one otherwise they could have quite easily turned into identity crisis.

That's exactly what I help people do today. To find their way out of the complexities that life has put them in or that they have chosen to be in. To find themselves again and rebuild from a place of wholeness.

If this sounds like you, DM or visit website to learn more. I'm only taking on a handful of clients as we wind down the year.

We have three months left of the year. Don't go into 2027 carrying the weight of your past. Its time to let go, free yourself and FLY, because your exciting new future awaits...

After stepping back from DNC last year, I stopped dancing myself.

Not because I no longer loved it, but because dance had become entangled with a chapter of my life that was ending.

For a long time, I thought I was grieving a business.

In truth, I was grieving an identity. The role of being a teacher, studio owner and the person responsible for everyone else.

Last weekend was the first time I danced purely for myself after years.

No students. No performance. No expectations. Just mindful movement.

And as I danced, I realised that our purpose is rarely found in what we do.

It is found in what remains when the roles, titles and achievements fall away.

Sometimes the journey from karma to dharma is not about finding something new.
It is about returning to what you have always loved, free from the identities that once surrounded it.

Today, I remembered that dance belongs to my soul before it ever belonged to my business. Follow for more inspiration ✨️ www.journeywithnikita.com

What if you did not begin 2027 by asking what more you should achieve?

What if you began by asking who is setting the goals?

From 18 to 21 January, I am holding a private Karma to Dharma™ residential immersion at Upper Woodlands in Somerset.

Four days to step away from familiar roles and responsibilities.
To recognise the patterns shaping your present transition.

To understand what may have completed.
To reconnect with what remains true.

And to consider how you want to meet the year ahead.
This is not a self-care retreat or a temporary escape.

It is an intimate identity threshold for accomplished people who sense that the life they have built may no longer express the whole of who they have become.

Private en-suite accommodation, spa time, mentoring, embodiment, seasonal dining and a contemplative Glastonbury pilgrimage are included.

Places are offered following an alignment conversation.
Begin the year from truth rather than momentum. DM to enquire or visit: https://journeywithnikita.com/karma-to-dharma-retreat/

It's hard to believe that just a few years ago I was feeling a sense of mis-alignment I couldn't name. I was waking up at night with my chest racing. I felt discomfort in my body that wasn't medical.

My mind was telling me that I had unfulfilled potential. I knew I was meant for more, but I didn't know what, how, why.

I loved my life but something felt missing. Until I started channeling ancient wisdom.

Karma is the pattern, Dharma is purpose.

Now fast forward and here I am living my dream life! Embodying the divine feminine and masculine combined.

I embrace self-love, I practice gratitude and most of all I make decisions from my higher self and truth, not my patterns or conditioning.

The best part is that I now share it with others. I provide them with the exact tools I've used to navigate my process. This work is harder and longer to do alone.

Working with me fast tracks years into months. Healing is not linear but you can learn from someone whose walked the path.

Let me help you cross your bridge from Karma to Dharma.

Welcome to Dance with Your Dharma!

For more than twenty years, DNC was my heart, soul and undivided devotion.

What began as a dance school became a place of creativity, confidence, culture, expression and belonging. We learned choreography, performed on stages and created extraordinary memories together.

But something deeper was always happening.

Dance was helping us encounter parts of ourselves that everyday life did not always give us permission to express.

DNC taught me that creativity is not simply something we do.

It is a way of remembering who we are.

As DNC completes its chapter, the deeper purpose behind it continues through Dance with Your Dharma, the idea at the heart of my TEDx talk: Creativity as the bridge from chaos to clarity.

This group will remain a home for the people, relationships and memories created through DNC. It will also become a space to explore creativity, movement, identity, expression and purpose.

You can expect:

• Memories and moments from the DNC journey
• Reflections on dance, creativity and identity
• Movement and embodied expression
• Insights inspired by my TEDx talk
• Conversations about what it means to live and create with purpose
• Future gatherings, workshops and creative experiences

This is not about leaving DNC behind. It is about recognising what DNC was preparing us for all along.

The dance continues, but the invitation is deeper now.

Not simply to perform.
Not to become who the world expects.
But to move, create and live in alignment with who you truly are.

Let's stay connected and continue this journey together! Comment below or DM for the link to watch my TEDx talk & dance.
