The passing of my mother, coupled with the profound loss of my hearing, emptied me completely. My mental health collapsed into a quiet void, and loneliness wrapped itself around me like a second skin. Silent and unseen, suicidal thoughts began to seep into the stillness, pulling me deeper into a place where even sorrow had no sound.

​

In that stillness, however, something stirred. I realised that the source of my anguish lay tangled within my memories, my emotions — stored not just in my mind, but deeply etched into the wisdom of my body. Slowly, with trembling patience, I embraced the stillness, listening to its quiet lessons. In doing so, I found a hybrid movement. From dead silence, dance was born — fragile at first, but alive. Dance became my language, my bridge from despair to existence, my way to speak when words deserted me.

​

Movement awakened my being. Each gesture became a memory revisited, each step an emotion released. The body, once frozen in grief, began to breathe, to speak, to hope. Movement reconnected me with the world beyond myself. In reaching out, I discovered that healing begins when one soul meets another — when we are heard, seen, and sensed without judgment.

 

This profound journey has shaped the new vision for Karma Dance CIC.

Through dance, we now create spaces where loneliness transforms into hope, and stillness gives birth to mindfulness. We work with individuals, organisations, communities, and groups — guiding them to explore their own stories through movement. Together, we weave connections, nurture friendships, and honour the resilience that lies quietly within us all.
Our work is a celebration of healing, a dance from despair to light, moving gently and powerfully across all realms of human experience.
