Join Beatrice Allegranti in an inclusive, trauma-responsive experiential workshop rooted in the Moving Kinship® intersectional feminist practice. At this time in our increasingly divided world, you are invited to explore ethical ‘with-nessing’ — being present, listening, noticing and responding with somatic attention, movement and words.  

This workshop is designed to nurture a deeper, embodied relationship to change-making and activism, addressing broader social, political and environmental concerns, hand-in-hand with our internalised biases, prejudices and assumptions — and to do this through the direct experience of our moving bodies. Beatrice integrates her psychotherapeutic and artistic skills to support the transformation of dis-regulated relational experiences into embodied resources. 

Whether you’re a professional dance artist, involved in arts and/or healthcare, a psychotherapist (who moves), an arts therapist, or an activist, this monthly group offers an opportunity to expand and resource your practice. 

Come ready to move, dance, play, discuss, write and receive feedback within an environment that embraces mess, joy, humanity, grief and whatever you show up with. 

For more information and reading about Moving Kinship® see Beatrice Allegranti’s new book.

24th February 2024: ONE DAY WORKSHOP

Moving with Intersectionality

This introductory workshop draws from Beatrice Allegranti’s practice and new book.

23rd March 2024: ONE DAY WORKSHOP

Moving with the Trouble of Trauma

This introductory workshop draws from Beatrice Allegranti’s practice and new book.

I really valued the pace and tone of the event and how Beatrice guided and prompted us on our journey to reveal, express and be curious about the material, gestures and movement that surfaced within the space. Thank you Beatrice for providing such a wonderful experience, I felt deeply enriched and enlivened as I left.

Amanda, Dance Movement Psychotherapist, Moving the Material Workshop

I learned about how to be coherent with the politics of age as I moved alone and with another person.

Workshop participant, Ageless Festival, Yorkshire Dance

The training was profound and valuable, both at a professional and personal level. The pedagogy was interesting and confirmed the richness of co-creating, co-learning and empowering personal/group experiences.

Silvia, Movement Artist/Multi-Modal Creative Movement Therapist, Moving with the Trouble of Trauma Workshop

I thoroughly enjoyed the event. From arriving a little anxious, the clear guidance and warm demeanour helped ground me. I was pleasantly surprised at how much material the kinship exercise brought up for me and felt more equipped to clearly articulate some of what had emerged for me, both in the withnessing and verbal sharing. In the relatively short time, I felt very connected to the others and the space. I left the workshop reminded of the creative and communicative powers of movement which was reassuring to feel so strongly again during an uncertain, transitional period in my career. 

Jenn, Dance Movement Psychotherapist, Moving the Material Workshop

The interweaving of movement, verbal reflections and groups discussions around the themes laid out by Beatrice on the day made the content digestible, and created a safe environment for exploration and growth. 

May-Helen, Dance Movement Psychotherapist, Moving with Intersectionality Workshop

It became a process of moving my felt-sense and noticing how that was tangled up with someone else’s. I experienced pockets of movement that were so deeply embodied that I wasn’t sure if they were mine or someone else’s. 

Workshop Participant, Wellcome Collection

It was quite a profound experience. I experienced a sense of the environmental catastrophe and my autobiographical place within that.
