Two newly listed gatherings in the area offer local residents distinct spaces to move, reflect and connect.

In Lewes, dancers of all experience levels are invited to Cliffe Hall on Cliffe High Street for Lewes Contact Improvisation with Live Music. Hosted by couple Marc and Sharon, this freeform contemporary movement session features an unwritten, improvised cello soundscape by Bela Emerson. Dancers move together in duets, trios or larger groups without set steps, exploring non-hierarchical connection and physical boundaries through spontaneous contact.

Across in Brighton, the Yellowave Beach Sports Cafe on Madeira Drive hosts the Psychedelic Integration Circle - with Brighton Psychedelics. Facilitated by a team of psychiatrists, psychologists and counsellors, this confidential group is designed for up to eighteen people who have used psychedelics or are considering them. Attendees, who are invited to bring an object of personal meaning to place in the centre of the circle, can share and make sense of challenging or meaningful experiences in a non-judgemental setting.
