& Our Story
We create experiences for you to journey deep within yourself; to find your own authentic self expression, to let go and let loose and to find that inner spark where true joy resides!
Awakening the Dancer Within You!
Our approach enables people to connect to their authentic self and to find inner joy again.
Dance and Remember is for those who seek more than just a momentary escape; it’s for people who desire a profound, lasting change, a reconnection with their true self, and a life filled with joy, embodiment and purpose.
This is a space for you to experience freedom, release, a shift in consciousness, joy, surrender, inner-trust, healing and transformation; taking you into places that you might have forgotten, so that you can access your True Nature.
It’s time to come Home to yourself by becoming present with your body, heart, mind and spirit.
“How grateful I am and my spirit rejoices as I was in absolute awe of how my body moved in a way I’ve never experienced before. I felt so liberated and FREE!” Ashley
The Story of Dance and Remember
Written by Leigh Rose
In 2005 I went to live in London, where a whole world of Dance opened up for me! I was working as a designer in a medium sized advertising agency. This one day I was browsing Gumtree and came across something completely different to what I was actually looking for… a Brazilian partner dance class. I hadn’t danced in many years, but something about it just pulled me in. My teacher noticed my natural talent for this dance called Zouk Lambada and asked me if I would assist him in teaching. I jumped at the opportunity! It was like I rediscovered my love for dance.
Funny enough, a few years ago I found my autobiography from when I was 5 years old where I wrote “I will be a dancer and an artist”.
Towards the end of my time in London, I joined a goddess dance circle for women where we danced specifically to heal our chakras. This was actually the class that inspired me to create my own offering back in Cape Town. I started teaching Chakra dancing. People loved it, and was known as the “Chakra dance girl.” As my classes evolved, I began exploring themes beyond the chakras, leading to the birth of “Journey Through Dance.” This modality grew, and I ventured into training others in its techniques.
In 2017 I embarked on a soul- searching trip to Asia.
The Philippines introduced me to Innerdance through a transformative 5-day workshop. The experience was so profound that the teacher encouraged me to share its teachings. Back in Cape Town, I met someone who had undergone the same training a year earlier. Together, we ignited a dance movement that quickly gained traction.
Our classes buzzed with energy, drawing waves of enthusiastic participants. Over the years through offering 100’s of classes and several trainings, other dedicated Innerdance facilitators emerged.
We are on a mission to help people live the happy and fulfilled lives they deserve. We facilitate the inner transformative processes allowing them to heal themselves by:
- Connecting with their true authentic selves
- Releasing emotional, physical and mental blockages, beliefs, patterns and addictions
- Transforming their lives to find true joy and purpose
Looking ahead, I envision Dance and Remember expanding across South Africa and even into other parts of Africa. I dream of integrating programs into medical, schooling, corporate and academic systems especially given the rising anxiety levels among people.
I want Dance and Remember to be more than just a fleeting experience for participants. I want it to be a transformative journey that leaves a lasting impact.
Dance brings me back to myself, keeping me youthful, embodied and connected!
