Moving Space is an opportunity for embodied exploration through conscious dance ­– an invitation to play, experiment, feel and be. We move to an eclectic range of music, with a little facilitation to help you find your way into your body and connect with your practice, but the emphasis is on offering a space for dances to emerge. 

This is a friendly, diverse community of dancers which welcomes newcomers – both experienced movers and complete beginners. There’s no choreography to get right, and no dance experience or ability is necessary, just a willingness to move and offer your attention to what spontaneously unfolds.

 

The studios at Acosta Dance Centre have ample natural light and sprung floors. The Centre is a few minutes from the Elizabeth Line, DLR and Southeastern Trains.
