About the event

A weekend of exploring our body's capacity to sense, to move, to express, to dance!

Amy will guide two days of embodied activities which are simple yet packed with discovery for each of us. We will  enjoy the space and contrast of studio space and the outdoor landscapes 

Come play, get messy, get curious, get nourished. Walk away with restored energy and knowing of your ability to sense, imagine and connect with other people without so many words.

Dancing with the Rain

Amy has been a movement and nature connection guide for 15 years. This weekend combines her years of dance and theatrical performance, with her love of nature.  We will have time to rest and reflect and time to move with ourselves, humans, trees, the changing winds and sky.

“The facilitation encouraged interaction in a way that was gentle and not forced and helped us bring in all parts of our bodies."

“It was so freeing and playful. I left with a smile on my face, spring in my step and felt inspired to move more.”

“Amy's energy was contagious, she led us with such ease and had a very calming way about her.”

 CREATIVE SLEEPOVERS

A series of cosy gatherings hosted by us, Amy Cooper and Hannah Kempe, resident artists, crafters, cooks and farmers of Three Pools Farm. We bonded over our lively creative practices and our love of hosting people to share, be inspired and learn together.

We invite you to join and…

• Have your creativity nurtured
• Be part of a caring weekend community
• Share materials, tools, skills and inspiration.
• Relax into the present
• Celebrate our creations

A sleepover?

Bring your pyjamas, eye mask, earplugs, whatever you need, you are invited to a sleepover! We think there is something special about sleeping in a room with other people. Not closing the door on the world, but sleeping as a pack, a collective, sharing herbal tea and toothpaste, occasional snores, body heat, sleep talks and threads of dreams in the morning. The farm has two purpose built sleepover spaces, a Giant Bunk House, with triple high adult sized bunk beds and a beautiful calm attic room.

It isn’t for everyone, and if everything else about this weekend appeals except the sleepover bit then please get in touch.
