ABOUT THE PRACTICE

flow space is a living landscape of words, images, rhythms and melodies. This practice feels like writing a living poem, one that we experience with all our senses and discover as we go.

We don’t plan beforehand exactly what will happen in class, but we generally introduce ourselves, and then move through 3 stages: arrival (tuning into our senses); flow (gently facilitated, with plenty of prompts to explore); and closure (stillness/breath). The space is open afterwards for reflection, drawing, snacking, or just hanging out.

Flow space is intended for all kinds of creatives and curious souls And is accessible for all kinds of movers. We move to experience insight, freedom and catharsis in our bodies, to explore our intuitive senses, and to invest in our body/mind’s visions.

WHO IS IT FOR?

There is no right or wrong way to participate: dynamic or slow, seated or standing, playful or silly, anxious or bored - everything belongs.

We don't concern ourselves with outcomes, or with how the process looks from the outside.

You are encouraged to simply move (or not move) your body in the way that feels right to you, in each moment.

ABOUT YOUR HOST

Ellie grew up in the world of ballet and danced professionally for a decade. She developed flow space in 2023 as a movement sanctuary: a place to escape perfectionistic pursuits, invest in creativity, and explore the unexpected and unknown together with kindred spirits. An avid writer and music-maker, she loves nothing more than the synesthesia of mixing her crafts, and embodying poetry by dancing it.

Ellie believes that truth is felt in the body. She also believes that every meal is better with kimchi, and enjoys staring at trees.
