"Thank you for the wonderful workshop. It was inspiring, uplifting and left me with much to process in the days that followed. Wish I could have stayed for longer and longer! Looking forward to more in the future as I 'dream' and 'fly' into 2008. Thanks again."Nazeema, Cape Town 2007.
All too often we put off quality time for ourselves - or we fill that innate longing for a connection to our authentic self with other things. Tomorrow never really comes. What we practise now, we get good at. Stop for one day and spend time connecting with your true nature, through rhythm and tone, intuition and expression and you'll be glad you did. And there is a stunning space in Cape Town for you to have your personal journey.

Her varied training is a gift to all those she works with, making this workshop a truly unique experience. I highly recommend Helen’s workshop to anyone who is interested in self exploration, and who wants to let go, have a dance, play and great fun!"
