Dance - Making Sacred

Something magical happens when people come together and

move in synchronicity...

I’ve been hosting collaborative dance gatherings for years now, and without fail, every time, something new and unexpected is unearthed during the dance that takes all of us by surprise and feeds our spirits in a way we didn’t even know we were hungry for...

Our next community dance event will be held

Coming Soon!

We’d love you to come join us. You don’t need any prior experience… just a willingness to move, create, and explore what unfolds.

You can also get in touch if you’d like to propose a collaboration hello@makingsacred.com

Here are some examples of these creative experiences

Golden Dream, Los Angeles

An international collaboration

READ THE STORY

It seemed a near impossible dream...

A vision of a golden dance came to me one night, when I was still at home on the opposite side of the world.

Months passed, and it all seemed like it might be too hard — there were so many variables, and no way I could prepare.

But I put the call out anyway, reaching out to a few special angels…

… and this amazing group of golden humans showed up!

From left to right, we have Tatiana, Melannie, Maceo, Frankie, Sarah, Melinda, Tarelle and Jennifer, as well as Erlinda — who was not there to dance, but there in full love and spirit.

Doing something like this is like giving birth — the oxytocin levels were HIGH afterwards. I was filled with so much love and gratitude for my fellow dancers.

With the City of Angels as our backdrop, together we flew...

GOODBYE, SYDNEY

A LOCAL COLLABORATION

READ THE STORY

When the seed for this dance first came to me, I did not know it would be my final dance in Sydney for a while...

The day was perfect — we had the beach to ourselves and such a beautiful group gathered, full of old friends and new.

Every dancer in this piece is a crucial part of its being, though we fade in and out of visibility, still moving and maintaining the shapes of this living dance organism. It breathes, it lives…

… and it took on even more meaning, as it would turn out to be my last community collaboration before making the move up north to Byron Bay to explore a different kind of life.

It was a bittersweet feeling to know I was leaving. Excitement for the new was tangled up with nerves and sadness.

My love for Sydney pulsed through me the whole time. After all, her beauty is undeniable. And I had lived there since I was 17 — which is also how long I’ve known some of these beautiful dancers…

To come together and create this beauty, as the waves broke behind us, felt like the perfect goodbye.

Elements of Alchemy, Blue Mountains

A collaboration with Oceans & Starshine

READ THE STORY

A magical day in the Blue Mountains with two people I’d never met before, working in a medium I’d never experienced before!

Bibi Baker-Predeaux and Evan Williams of Oceans & Starshine are two of the most wondrous humans I have ever had the pleasure to meet and work with.

We all surrendered to the process of creating what wanted to be made… and the end result was this exquisite short film: Elements of Alchemy.

Shot on 35mm, this unedited, unplanned, improvised creation flowed so freely there was no doubt it was meant to be…

Hence the name, Elements of Alchemy. Because we sure did find gold on that magical day.

Here’s Bibi’s take, in her own words:

“The complete collection of 35mm images captured on the day are showcased at Oceans&Starshine. These are all unedited offerings captured as Talulah danced and are presented in the exact order they were taken.

A selection of one off Fine Art Prints from this collection are also available at Oceans&Starshine

Thank you for being here.

Thank you for acknowledging the vital importance of Art within you and within our community.

Thank you consciously connecting more closely with Art and Artists.”

Tiny bites of time to dance .. but it’s very nec

Starting the year as I intend to live it.. ⭐️💫✨✨✨ 2019 was a huge year for my family, moving to the country from Sydney. We made it through the first year of a new school, new friends, new everything! We definitely had our lows through the year, we made it with a few battle scars, lessons to carry with us. And wow, the teen years are no joke as a parent (or the teen)! People ask us if we feel like we made the right move and I can only say yes.. we are growing, changing and evolving differently up here than we would of had we stayed. 2019 has been a transitional year, in a little town on the coast.. this year we move to the (bushfire proof) house we’ve built and start living on the land for real. And the bushfire proof house bit is something I’m very grateful we did, the state of our country right now is apocalyptic and we are not in bushfire season yet. Heartbroken for the animals, plants and humans that have died or are suffering... ♥️ and meeting this human ray of light @alons10 has been one of the highlights for me 😘😘 I’m dancing more than ever, teaching again and there are some big things on the horizon for us 💫⭐️✨✨✨ Happy New Year friends (tho it’s just another day, I know, the birds are not singing HNY! this one has felt clearly defined for us) ✨✨✨✨✨ ~song~ ghost town by kanye~ #dailyimprovisation #makingsacred #protection #dance #duo #dancetogether #hny #2020
