Basic, Intermediate and Advanced levels fall into:

​


All courses run on demand or can be booked to serve pre-existing groups via an organiser.

​

Spiderflower's work is often site specific. In these cases, specific location is noted, however, events can transfer to new locations provided a venue and surrounding environment are suitable. All courses require an indoor studio, most with access to a natural setting. Where a specific environment is required (such as woodland, water etc) - please see this noted.

WOMAN - THE AVEBURY CYCLE 

4 x 4 Day Blocks. Women only. 

​

Held close to the ancient sites of Avebury in Wiltshire, UK - The Avebury Cycle is designed for women who walk a creative path and offers an open, breathable structure on an ongoing basis.

​

The dance cycle follows the pattern of a continual spiral rooted in the earth year.  Turning on the wheel, a dance will change its theme and focus to echo the rhythms of the season, a woman's life cycle and that of a dancer's own creative / personal story.

 

Intricately layered, in time and in tune, this is our structure. The boat to carry the journey. 

 

*With care, WOMAN can translate outside of Avebury, provided land and venue meet requirements.
