Celebrating 2022
Looking back at 2022 and all the interesting twists and turns it has taken me on. Watch a mini overview of the various artworks I have made and experiences I have been part of.
On the eve of a brand new year, it has been a good moment to pause and look back.
A common thread throughout 2022 has been the people I have met and the stories I have been privileged to hear and be part of.
Whether that is through the very special commissions I have worked on, each with their own particular pathos; through the conversations I have had, or through movement and dance. All of it comes down to the idea of connection, of building bridges of understanding, without judgement, and in the spirit of discovery!
I have certainly discovered much about myself in this process and am even more curious about the journeys I hope to make in 2023 and the new dialogues and insights they will bring.
Life definitely has thrown some curve balls at me, but oddly enough, the very things that seem huge obstacles could, in fact, be the calls to action in making positive change. Only time will tell!😊
Wishing you a wonderful year ahead, hopefully one in which we can all grow and apply a positive ‘Learner’s Mind’ to any challenges we face and not forgetting to celebrate the simple beauty of good friendship and community! 🥳
Thank you for all your support and interest, it is much appreciated!❤️😊🙏
A Turmeric & Ginger Boosting Brew
Discover a fabulous simple little recipe I swear by, that will comfort and nourish your immune system this festive season!
With so many friends going down with colds & flu, I wanted to share a little recipe that has really helped me and will hopefully help you too!❤️
A cut-up inch of turmeric & ginger root will brew 3-4 small pans of tea, which you can keep refilling and heating during the day. Once you're done with the roots, you can chop them up and throw them into whatever you're cooking. Waste not, want not as they say!😁
This has become a daily ritual of mine over the last few months, and I have definitely felt the benefits, being, so far, flu-free!🤞😊
I don't yet have the qualifications (although I will be working on that next year with the help of @collegeofnaturopathicmedicine !) to give more than just a personal, anecdotal recommendation, but I do urge you to give it a try and see for yourself.
The pinch of pepper is purely optional, but it certainly adds a happy kick and helps with absorbing all the beautiful benefits of this brew.
Hope you enjoy! ❤️
Do you have any variations of this recipe and experiences of it? If so, please do share in the comments below as I'd love to hear further insights and new perspectives on it! 🙏
Happy Fridaying!🙂

I am hugely happy to announce that the Incognito Bachata performance team are now launching their brand new show!
Here's a look back over the last 12 weeks of smiles, sweat and pizza!
It has been such a beautiful journey, lead by the incredibly generous and knowledgeable Jeff & Mia who have guided, encouraged and, where needed, issued us with additional press ups to get us show ready!
Thank you @incognito_dance & @mia.amorbaila for all your hard work & support!
I've been performing with Incognito since 2018 and am in awe of the incredibly special experience they deliver with their performance courses. You learn so much and meet the most wonderful people!
And, I love this idea of striving toward a common creative goal as a collective of people, fired by passion and a desire to learn. It makes this 'show time' moment all the more rewarding and memorable!
There is also a fabulous Bachata Ladies styling show launching at the same time, created by @karolina.klave & @bonevaalex which is truly sensational and should not be missed!
