✨ Resonant Bodies ✨
📣Workshop announcement 📣

Hello divas,

@nelsonholtz & I have something exciting to share!

Most of you know us through circus, capoeira, or simply because we’re fabulous :)

Over the past couple of years we’ve been researching, experimenting and playing with movement together, drawing inspiration from contact improvisation, contemporary floorwork, soft acrobatics and martial arts.

We’re so excited to finally share our first workshop together!

Over two hours we’ll explore listening, shared weight, partner work, soft acrobatics, rhythm and improvisation. We’ll develop practical movement skills while discovering new ways of moving together.

After the workshop we’ll keep the space open for a one hour jam so we can continue dancing and integrating everything we’ve explored together.

Come in comfortable clothes and bring knee pads if you need.

Open to all levels.

Bring a friend, share this with someone who might enjoy it, and come dance with us. 💛

DM, email or use the payment link to book your spot or ask any questions. If cost is a barrier, send us a DM as well 💖

Another successful Sunday in the books.

A huge thank you to everyone who came through and shared the day with us. Every week this community reminds us why we started Broadway Movement in the first place. Seeing people from all walks of life come together, move together, learn from one another and genuinely connect is something we'll never take for granted.

A massive thank you to @bambubodies @ramin.simplybe @nelsonholtz for an amazing collaboration. It's been so nice watching our communities naturally come together. There's no forcing it, just good people, good energy and a shared love for movement, creativity and connection. It genuinely feels like we're building something really special together, and we can't wait to see where it goes.

A special thank you to @cloud.r.e.m for delivering such a thoughtful and inspiring workshop. It was amazing seeing everyone get involved, explore something new and leave with smiles on their faces.

A big thank you as well to @outdoorbrewing_uk and @gazacolauk for keeping everyone refreshed throughout the day. We really appreciate your continued support and for backing what we're building within the community.

We're incredibly proud of what this community is becoming, and we're even more excited for what's ahead. We can't wait to keep introducing new classes, new collaborations and new experiences, while continuing to grow alongside all of you.

We know we say thank you a lot, and we probably sound like a broken record, but it's because we genuinely mean it. None of this happens without the people who show up, volunteer, teach, support and belief in what we're building.

As always, we never expect anything in return, but if you'd like to support what we're creating, any donation, no matter how big or small, helps us continue providing free classes, workshops and community experiences for everyone.

Here's to many more Sundays together.

Bambubodies Day Event: Physical Literacy, Play-State & Connection

Rediscover what your body already knows - through play, partnership, and practice.

Join us for a full day of movement exploration using the interdisciplinary Bambubodies approach. Less of a focus on perfecting particular exercises but about reconnecting with the joy of moving, learning to listen to your body, and finding flow with others.

What We’ll Explore

• Attunement & deep listening - Priming your body to connect more fully with yourself and those around you

• Conditioning for movement - Building strength, mobility, and coordination that builds awareness in the body

• Partner play - Weight-sharing, playful games, and physical exploration with others

• Skill acquisition - A safe, supported introduction to capoeira/ contact improvisation/ partnered acrobatics/inversions

• Your movement story
Looking at your bodies history and how it shapes the way you move through the world in your daily life.

• Open jam time - Space to explore, digest, and connect through the vocabulary you’ve learned

Who Is This For?

Anyone curious about movement. Some movement experience is helpful, but no pre-requisites needed. The day will focus on developing our movement capabilities through playful explorative enquiries

This day explores skills like inversions, extensions and falling patterns. It’s a way of seeing movement as an addition to what you already know.

▪️When: 9th August 10.00-17.00

▪️Where: Centre 151 Haggersgon (@centre151)

We will have a short break for lunch around 1 so bring some snacks/lunch.

🚨 Investment: The cost of the day is £150

🚨 EARLYBIRD £115 before 26th July !!!

If financials are a difficulty we have some concession spots available, so contact us via DM.

How to even write about this journey...

This year I was a Community Leader for @thepalace.collective and what an experience. Words cannot say how much this project has helped me develop as the person you know today. But I would just like to say Thank You to everyone involved 💖.

So much love
Nelson Holtz
