SPACE
Lean In - Monthly
Human Connection
It’s is what we ache for as humans, at our core. What we’re wired for. What we’re here for.
How can we connect!?
With breath, through movement, sound, dance, and play?
These spaces were borne from my own desire to be more intentional with connection. To lean into the spaces and places that allow us all to feel more connection. To feel seen and know.
To explore what energy feels like in our bodies, as we connect to ourselves, to others, to the earth. And cultivate it, consciously, purposefully.
It’s my invitation to you!
Let’s explore and find out together. Cause there isn’t a one way and no two interactions are the same and no two LEAN IN spaces are the same either!
From my heart to yours— this is your invitation to come along; get curious about your inner world, and feel how that shapes the way you show up in connection with others.

LOCATION
Balaklava SA; exact location is given closer to the day via group message! It’s near Balaklava on private property!
WHAT THIS SPACE WILL INCLUDE
The thing about LEAN IN — is that it’s different every time. It does always include invitations to;
- A guided mediation to connect to yourself
- Light language in song and spoken form
- Gentle grounding breathwork
- Games and explorations that explicitly invite you to connect — that practise presence and intentionality
- ‘Tools’ that draw from practises that include things that have influenced and helped me — 12 step, authentic relating, tantra, contact improv, somatic movement, consent practises etc
- An ice bath, to reset your nervous system (seriously if you haven’t dipped yourself in the icy waters, try it, it always resets me!!)
- A yummy pot-luck meal, shared together
SOMETIMES
— We journal with prompts, pull cards, climb trees.
There isn’t exactly a ‘plan’, rhyme or reason, it flows with the energy of the land and whoever turns up!
WHAT TO BRING
- FOOD to share for POT-LUCK! Make it as allergen friendly as possible! Oh, and yummy of course!!
- Pillows for sitting on are provided but on a cool day bring a blanket/warm clothes/layers
- Sun protection (hat and clothing preferred, see note below)
- A water bottle
- Journal (pen and paper)
- Bathers and towel for the ice bath
- Your open mind and open heart
ALLERGY
I am extremely sensitive boarder line allergic to many socially ‘normal’ fragrances/smells/scents. As the space holder I gotta ask you…so I can do my job, that you consider wearing your natural body odour— it really is the BEST! It’s your truest, purest expression of self. (Which is a whole other point of discussion for sure)
Please refrain from wearing perfume, deodorants, sunscreen or even moisture that might have strong scent! Thanks!
SAFETY
A word on ‘safe spaces’ — I don’t personally believe that I can tell you what a safe space looks or feels like for you. It IS my intention to invite you to explore that with us in this space that is LEAN IN, but, safety, I believe, and have found in my own journey that, is cultivated inside of you. (usually not in isolation, we learn safety as we are with others)
If one does not first feel a semblance of safety within themselves, it’s hard to feel safe on the outside. Having said that, I do desire to work with you and create a space that feels safe for all to express and discover a place where authenticity, vulnerability and truth hold us all!
