I have been writing Mindfulness scripts for about 12 months now and using them to run my Mindfulness sessions for some of the students I work with.  I started doing these by using ready-made scripts from the internet, but realised these were pretty limited for students with a disability.

 Back at the Women’s Circus – there is something about this place – it lets me hang out, swing and fly…  There are a few refresher sessions with Franca Stadler to define and refine my harness and silk skills – then to move on to something new.

Monday afternoons I have “Djembe” improvisational lessons with Jordan Scotney.  These sessions have become incredibly inspiring. Jordan is not only a good teacher, musician… but he has a way of “copying” my body/hand movements and then teaching me something that works, for both of us.  This kind of teaching method puts my body at ease,Continue reading “Drumming”

I worked with Akasha Temple (film/video artist) during July and developed a video installation as part of Gretel Taylor’s exhibition in Lilydale.  Akasha has been great to collaborate with – she made life seem so much fun on that freezing cold afternoon at Lilydale lake where she filmed my “defined” sand movements.   The videoContinue reading “Video installation – Force of Nature Exhibition”
