Between US - Remembering the HeART of Relating
About
There is something deeply mysterious about how we move, alone and together. Life is an ever-evolving conversation: with ourselves, with another, in community or the infinite, sacred prayer. In each relational landscape, moments of not knowing invite spontaneous response, carrying us between clumsiness and clarity, confusion and understanding, seen and unseen.
In a world that leans toward certainty, we are invited to return to the pleasure and creative spontaneity of beholding and beloving the unknowns between us.
Between US is a thoughtfully crafted, nourishing and transformative week-long series comprising a weekend together, cushioned between weeknight sessions before and after, with Kate-Marie and community.

Evenings & Weekend Workshop
Using the wisdom of the body as a guide and simple movement rituals to hold us, these evenings and weekend immersions are an opportunity to practice alone and together, the art form of relating with our moving presence. We will combine Soul Motion conscious movement principles, deep body listening and creative enquiry to weave and wonder through the humanness of our longing and belonging.
Evenings:
Thurs 13th & 20th August. 7:30pm – 9:30pm
Weekend:
Sat 15th & Sun 16th August. 10:00am – 5:00pm
*Attendance could look like participating in the weekend and/or one or both weeknight sessions.

Meet Kate-Marie Mutsaers!
As a human learning to dance with life, I bring with me a curiosity and care of the ordinary every day dance. The ritual of making tea, the tenderness of being with loved ones, the sacred pause of prayer, the subtle poetry in a stranger’s movement. Life is already dancing — we simply learn how to listen.
The dance floor becomes our experimental ground — a place where you and I can practice, explore, go deeper, stretch wider, and move in all directions. When the ordinary rhythms of life meet conscious movement, a rich and embodied way of living unfolds.
For over 28 years, I have lived and breathed alongside diverse communities around the world, witnessing the transformative power of embodied practice. I honour and appreciate process over outcome and behold the knowing that each person in the group holds a unique wisdom, experience and way of being that can contribute towards the collective whole.
Come with your body and soul as you are, no dance experience needed. Your life wisdom is wholly and worthy of being remembered, shared and held.
