Story

I love moving my body - yoga, climbing, swimming, you get the picture.

But dancing HITS DIFFERENT; it always has. From living room performances by 3 year old Georgia, to dancing at the bus stop in the sunshine today - it brings me so much joy!

I think, my personal record for continuous dancing was about 4 hours at Moelfe Lifeboat Day in 2014. A woman showed up to the live music, dressed head to toe in neon and began dancing. Think Zumba or Just Dance vibes; she was so positive and enthusiastic that her moves were contagious... to me anyway.

So aiming to beat that record, I'll be dancing from 12:30 till 18:35 on November 30th!

YES - SIX HOURS (and 5 minutes)!!

You might be thinking "but Georgia, you probably do this on a night out anyway?!" and that is a fair comment....

AND I firmly believe everyone should be able to access the joys of creativity - be that dance, music, writing, arts and crafts.... all the rest!

I've benefited so much, since I was tiny, from creative workshops and activities! They've all done my brain so much good, so let's pop some money in a pot and make more of that happen.
