Are you willing and open for a conscious relationship?

A conscious relationship is one in which both partners feel committed to a sense of purpose, and that purpose is growth. Individual growth. Shared growth as a couple. Collective growth that makes the world a better place.

AND do you ALSO love laughing, playing, meeting kindred people, or having conversations that delve deeper than “How's the weather?”.

Maybe you've also been wondering where on earth you can actually meet epic humans that aren’t posting their best blue steel on online dating apps?

Well it's here kindred friends! It’s speed dating with real life kindred folk who are open to conscious relationship AND deep and meaningful, AND also playful, human connection!

TESTIMONIALS

“I’ve never felt so open and safe and held before. The room and the energy was so divine... there was an equalness between us all. It was phenomenal. I came away from this experience with so much more than I thought.”

“I had such a beautiful time. It was so healing and so hope-evoking just to experience that kind of connection and interact with conscious men. It was reaffirming that my standards for intimate connection are not too high after all and that gentle, present, receptive masculinity is out there (I'd only seen it on Instagram 😂).”

“Omg!! What an epic evening. Thank you so much!!”

“So much fun!! I feel invigorated!”

“Super edgy for me, but the facilitators made it really comfortable to be there. I enjoyed the structured games to get to know people on a deeper level.”

------------------------------------------------------------------

PLEASE NOTE: we understand the sensitivity and vulnerability of attending an event like this. We endeavour to make everyone feel as comfortable as possible and to create an atmosphere where you feel safe and encouraged to express yourself as who you really are.

While the intention of this event is to create opportunities for romantic connection, all connection starts as two humans meeting each other for the first time and finding common ground. We suggest you see this event as an opportunity to connect to the common ground of all people participating rather than only the ones you feel an “attraction” to. This creates more safety for all those involved and also enables YOU to have a really enjoyable experience with all your pairings!

Please contact us if you are unsure about anything about this event or would like more details. We would be really happy to talk to you.

Discover movement beyond choreography in this playful, body-led three-week dance series.

Are you curious about moving your body in new, playful, and expressive ways?

Want to explore dance beyond choreography, through connection, curiosity, presence, and sensation?

This 3-week, beginner-friendly, skill-building closed container runs across three consecutive Wednesdays and requires no previous experience - just a willingness to be in your body and an openness to explore, listen, and connect through movement. There’s no choreography to memorise, only the unfolding of the present moment: body to body, breath to breath.

Contact Improvisation (CI) is a playful, touch-based dance form rooted in shared weight and spontaneous movement. More than just dance, it’s a moving meditation, a dialogue of bodies in motion that invites presence, attunement, and surrender.

Together we’ll release the idea of performance and perfection. There are no “right” moves, only authentic ones. Whether slow and tender or dynamic and wild, each dance becomes a reflection of what’s alive in the moment.

CI invites us to soften control, follow the intelligence of the body, and meet the unknown with curiosity. It’s a practice of responsiveness and embodiment, where connection becomes both the method and the message.

When approached with intention, CI is a powerful path back to ourselves and each other, cultivating trust, empathy, and intuition while dissolving the lines between art, play, and presence.

This series is for anyone who’s:

• Curious about non-linear movement, connection, and exploring their body in a more intuitive, creative way, especially those new to dance

• Seen this art form, but presently feel unsafe to engage with it and move alongside other bodies

• Desiring to connect with others through movement

• Wanting to feel more grounded, fluid, and at home in your body

Ultimately, this is for anyone who feels a yes in their body reading this, whether it’s a whisper or a full-body spark. Come as you are. You don’t need to be “a dancer” to dance.

Just bring your curiosity and an open mind.

The 3 x weekly 2 hour workshops will take place on:

✨ Wednesday, 11 June 2025 - 6:30pm to 8:30pm

✨ Wednesday, 18 June 2025 - 6:30pm to 8:30pm

✨ Wednesday, 25 June 2025 - 6:30pm to 8:30pm

Each week builds on the last, guiding you gently into the world of CI with a focus on safety, trust, creativity, and body awareness. You’ll learn foundational tools that support both solo exploration and dancing in contact with others. Expect warm-ups, guided exercises, partnered play, and space to reflect and ask questions.

Week 1: Coming Home to the Body
Grounding, solo awareness, and inner listening

Week 2: Connection in Motion
Relational presence, shared weight, and responsiveness

Week 3: The Art of Support
How to offer it, how to receive it, and how to move with another while staying rooted in ourselves

Things to note:

• Dance with the body you have on the day, do not rush yourself beyond your current physical limitations

• Everything is invitational. Consent, boundaries, and emotional safety are foundational values of this practice and of how we’ll hold the container

• Wear comfortable clothes to move in; long pants and a shirt are preferred

• Bring a water bottle

• Please arrive on time to respect the safety of the container and allow time for your body to warm up

• If you are sick one week, please do not attend, due to the close proximity to one another

• This container will be capped at 24 participants, so reserve your spot

About your facilitator - Shlomit @mitty.merkaba

Shlomit is a lifelong mover, space holder, and playful presence devoted to the embodied experience of being human. Her journey with Contact Improvisation began in 2015 during a dance exchange at the University of Malta. As someone who had rarely been offered partner work in traditional dance spaces due to her body size, CI cracked open a new world of creation, surrender, presence, and subconscious story. It became a portal to reclaiming space, letting others in, releasing fear of being “too much,” and discovering the joy of moving with others.

Since then, she has danced across Thailand, Malta, Israel, America, and Australia, most recently performing in a week-long CI series at Woodford Folk Festival. She sees CI as a utopian playground for adults - a space where curiosity leads, presence is essential, and the intelligence of human connection is revealed through sensation and play in all its beautiful awkwardness.

For Shlomit, CI isn’t about technique or performance - it’s about following impulse, listening deeply, and being in conversation with the body, the floor, and the moment. It’s a practice of presence, of surrender, and of joy. And she can’t wait to share it with you.

Tickets: $105.00 early bird, $120.00 general exchange - includes all three sessions!

This event offers a unique blend of emotional processing, free-flow dance, and somatic exercises, designed to guide us out of our heads and back into our bodies. Through nervous system regulation, emotional release, and authentic expression, we move beyond merely surviving—into thriving.

Emotion = energy in motion. Yet, as a society, we have grown accustomed to suppressing our emotions. Because of this, our emotions remain stuck and stagnant within the body, waiting to be liberated through movement, awareness and presence.

Shake it off gives us an opportunity to safely release stress and stored emotions through movement and emotional expression tools. It allows us to reconnect with ourselves through our body. All while building our emotional and physical fitness.

Event Inclusions:

• Emotional expression techniques: We start the event by going through some of our favourite tools and techniques for experiencing and releasing our emotions.

• Dance and movement: Moving has never been so fun, a curated musical journey invites us to dance, and tune into the way that our body desires to move. No dance experience required for this free-flow session.

• Somatic exercises: Ending the event with deep relaxation, be guided through some gentle, rhythmic exercises that are scientifically designed to regulate your nervous system.

Dance, release, and express at this somatic event, created to leave you feeling lighter and freer.

About your host:

Shahna Sarpi, Somatics & embodiment mentor. - @shahnasarpi

Shahna works with the body and nervous system to people out of survival mode, into a state of thriving on every level. Taking people from stressed, suppressed and exhausted… to healthy, free and radiant.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

The Awakening

Fasten your seatbelt as you transcend the dream spell, revealing the unfiltered truth of your existence - empowered, sovereign, and free. Peel back layers, shedding fictions that kept you feeling small. This breathwork haven releases burdens of the past, bidding farewell to negativity, self-criticism, and judgments, allowing reconnection with your authentic self. Inspired by themes of acceptance, gratitude, self-belief, and courage, The Awakening sparks a potent personal rebirth, creating space for emotional resilience, inner peace, and restored balance. This revitalizing expedition fortifies sustained growth, guiding you toward a life illuminated by authenticity, self-discovery, and the empowering truth of your sovereignty.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

We recommend you arrive on an empty stomach with no food or caffeine 2-3 hours before the event. If you do want to eat, please do your best to keep it to a light meal to maximise your journey.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

About your facilitator - Kiran Jot @kiranjot.yoga

Kiran Jot means Ray of Light, and it is the spiritual name given to Kirsten Sikiotis by her yoga teacher, Guru Dass, upon completing her Kundalini Yoga teacher training in Bali, Indonesia, in 2015.

Kundalini Yoga was the awakening practice and the beginning of a long love story of connecting with the self and coming home to the heart of the soul for Kiran Jot. It began as a journey of self-enquiry and discovery in Bali, the Island of the Gods, supported by a community of expats, artists, locals, soul family, and her husband.

It was a natural and smooth transition from the fashion world, where her "first love baby," a swimwear and resort lifestyle brand called Maidenlove, evolved into her namesake Kundalini Yoga and lifestyle brand. Kiran Jot Yoga is for the conscious, awakened fashion lover, where quality, longevity, small runs, and unique design are at the forefront of inspiration and curation.

After eight years living in Bali, Kiran Jot returned to her hometown of Melbourne, where she now lives with her two sons and husband. She teaches Kundalini Yoga and Prenatal Yoga in Elwood, St Kilda, and Windsor, as well as online, and hosts workshops and retreats across her home state of Victoria.

She loves to inspire others to lead with the heart and connect to their highest truth, infinite creative potential, and inner light.

Get in touch with Kiran Jot via email at info@kiranjot.yoga - she would LOVE to connect with you.

About the experience:

The motivation for this practice arose from the struggle to answer an age-old question;

“What is the purpose of life?”

There are so many beautiful pursuits in life, but we can struggle to concretise what really matters:

• Purpose

• Peace

• Confidence

• Fun

• Health

• Freedom

• Success

• Love

As we obtain one of these things, others can slip. This is where we can integrate 'The Power of the Heart'.

‘The Heart’s Prayer’ is a practice that ties all of the wisdom and understanding of how to leverage the Heart together in one meaningful practice. It can allow us to approach life through a new, more empowered lens.

What to expect:

The Heart’s Prayer is a daily practice that can be quickly and easily integrated into existing lifestyles.

The practice awakens the power of the Heart in the context of all important pursuits of life.

The Heart’s Prayer may help participants to:

• Connect to their vision/purpose

• Activate a deep sense of self-worth

• Support them in times of challenge

• Expand their sense of what’s possible

• Connect them instantly to gratitude

• Deepen their connection to God/Universe

• Clarify what action to take in life

• Awaken courage to navigate fear

• Connect them to presence

• Support their highest fulfillment

How will the night work?

The evening will compromise of 3 components:

1. Learning - learn the theory behind the Heart’s Prayer

2. Practice - do a series of activities to practice the Heart's Prayer

3. Integration - participants will be given a free item and lesson on integrating the Heart's Prayer into their lifestyle

Why is the event free?

Ryan, with the support of Centre of You, has invested his time and money in this event to give back to the community. Ryan believes that by empowering people to connect with their own heart, we can all rise together in our own aligned sovereignty and make the world a better place.

About your facilitator:

Ryan Magic - @theryanmagic

Ryan is an international speaker specialising in courage, purpose and fulfilment. Through difficult childhood circumstances, Ryan grew up extremely shy and battled severe anxiety and depression in his teens. After discovering PD at age 16, he learnt to leverage courage to build a multi-million dollar business in his early 20's. After growing too fast from a place of deep insecurity, Ryan experienced a huge business breakdown that involved large employee-theft and business debt. After rapidly turning the business around, Ryan chose to abruptly shut the business down to go on a deep spiritual journey.

After 5 years of deep healing, meditation and therapy, Ryan became a meditation teacher, breathwork facilitator and founded several healing modalities of his own. Ryan now lives his life dedicated to supporting people to unlock their purpose, power and fulfilment using his proprietary methodology called; 'The COR Method'. The COR Method is a unique way of integrating the spiritual, emotional and practical aspects of the growth industry to support people to live their best life.

Things to note:

Centre of You has plenty of bolsters, blankets, and cushions for you to get cosy with. We recommend wearing comfortable, loose clothes to enable deep breathing and sitting/laying upon the floor with ease. Chairs are available. A journal is recommended as are any familiar personal items that will aid you in feeling grounded (crystal, teddy, scarf, etc).

Notice of Partial Moment Amateur Photography/Videography: There are many events held at Centre of You where no content is captured. The facilitator of this event however wishes to capture moments of this gathering for future marketing and community-sharing purposes. This will take place via their personal device captured by themselves or a representative. We recognise that being recorded can impact personal comfort and nervous system regulation and we want to honor your preferences. If you do not wish to have your image captured yet still wish to join, know that this is entirely possible at this event. Please speak with us at the door so we can honour your boundaries. If you’d like to review any footage captured at the conclusion of the event, you are most welcome to do so. As the facilitators are capturing moments at this event, you also may do so if the desire arises.

Arrival: Endeavour to arrive between 4:45pm - 5:00pm. To preserve the experience for all involved, doors will close at 5:15pm. Truly, it breaks our heart to have to turn latecomers away yet the disruption to the whole group experience by virtue of lateness does require management. We ask that you find understanding and consideration for the timebound nature of the container and make every effort to arrive on time.

Driving: Know Centre of You is on Chapel St and ample time to find a car spot is best to be factored into your plans. Park direct on Chapel St (spots unmetered after 5pm) or in Anchor Place, the open-air parking lot in the side street that runs opposite Centre of You (unmetered after 4pm).

Public transport - tram: Both the number 6 tram & 78 tram stop on the corner of High St/Chapel St. This is stop 31 on the number 6 tram (Moreland/Glen Iris) & stop 45 on the number 78 tram (North Richmond/Balaclava).

Public transport - train: Both Prahran & Windsor stations along the Sandringham Line will get you walking distance to Centre of You.

Finding Centre of You: Centre of You is nestled within the arcade that Chapel St Bazaar is in (217 Chapel St). It is up a flight of stairs with a wide landing at the half-way-point. Unfortunately, this current version of Centre of You does not have a wheelchair accessible lift. If you could use support in getting up the stairs or would like to discuss ways to make your experience at Centre of You more comfortable, please reach out via hello@centreofyou.com.au or via DM over on Centre of You Instagram.

FREE COMMUNITY EVENT - Secure your spot!

An experiential exploration of discovering the consensual touch we'd truly love to give and receive.

The Human Forest is a consensual, devotional touch experience that invites you to embody your boundaries, stay present, root into your heart, and embrace the essence of oneness through touch. This is a space where time slows, hearts soften, boundaries are honoured, and through the art of deep embodied listening within community, something ancient awakens.

Together, we’ll explore the alchemy of touch as a pathway to presence, where every gesture becomes an offering and every body is honoured. This is a container of sacred play and restorative contact, free from ongoing expectation. A space to explore boundary work, lean into the art of receiving, and be witnessed.

Who this is for:

The Human Forest is for everyone, regardless of age, gender, or background. Whether you're an individual seeking deeper connection, a couple exploring the art of non-sexual touch, or a community member curious about the healing power of shared experiences, this space welcomes all who are open to honouring their boundaries and cultivating a sense of oneness.

Whether you're young or young at heart, and whether you identify as male, female, non-binary, or anywhere along the gender spectrum, you’ll find a nurturing environment where your presence is honoured and your heart is safe to open.

Join us for this sacred journey of connection and self-discovery, where every person is celebrated and valued for their unique contribution to the collective experience.

What to expect:

We begin with a grounding circle, connection exercises, and an explanation of the Human Forest framework to create shared language and agreements.

In the Human Forest, we become the ecology, connected through consensual, symbiotic, loving touch. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be gently guided into a world where consent is sacred and boundaries are celebrated.

Half of the room will begin as trees, blindfolded, whose role is to receive loving, devotional touch from the other half of the room – the critters. Everyone will have the opportunity to experience both roles, twice. Communication within the Forest container will be non-verbal.

These events can be powerful, healing experiences. When the heart opens – through touch, connection, beauty, or presence – the emotional landscape can become vast and deeply personal. Participants may experience love, joy, tenderness, grief, trust, sadness, playfulness, and empowerment.

Our priority is supporting everyone to leave feeling open, cared for, and deeply held in their belonging.

Are you open to trusting yourself?

To being part of a community awakening to the heart-opening, honest, restorative power of non-expectational touch?

Let yourself be held.
Let yourself give.
Let yourself soften into something beautifully human.

What others have said:

“Can we please do this every day!?”

“I just feel like honey melting down a warm stove.”

“I can actually feel my body, myself, and other people. I feel so connected.”

“I’ve never felt so supported in my life.”

“It’s MIND BLOWING to share this much intimacy with so much reverence.”

What to bring:

• Comfortable, soft clothing for lounging and movement

• A snack or drink to share afterward in our community time, this is our aftercare

• An open heart and a curious mind

• Water

• A friend or two who might just need this more than they know

++++++++++++++++++

IMPORTANT:

• In this event, we focus on devotional, loving, and non-sexually oriented touch. Sensual, not sexual. Please note: there is no genital touch at this event, and underwear remains on at all times.

• There is no kissing or fluid exchange at any time.

• Participants who know each other - especially those in romantic relationships - are asked to follow the same agreements, rules, and etiquette of the space as everyone else while the event is running (e.g. no kissing your lover in the Forest). This helps avoid confusion about what is and isn’t appropriate and supports the integrity of the container.

• All of our events have been remarkably healing and heart-opening for many participants, as seen in the testimonials above. That said, this is a touch-focused experience. If you have a history of trauma related to giving or receiving touch, we encourage you to reach out to us directly to thoughtfully consider whether this offering is right for you.

• Participants are required to arrive on time to ensure they receive the full explanation of how to communicate boundaries with clarity and respect during the consent and boundaries section at the beginning of the event.

Join The Pussy Queen Chloe Adriana in a sacred circle where masks are shed, truth is welcomed, & the magic of self is remembered.

Welcome to the Pussy Palace - a sacred circle where you are invited to reconnect with yourself and others in an intimate, supportive space.

In a world dominated by busyness and performance, this is a place where you can be fully seen, accepted, and loved, just as you are, with your mask off. Rooted in the wisdom of ancient feminine traditions, Pussy Palace offers a modern-day mystery school experience for anyone aligned with nurturing, creative, and receptive energy.

These face-to-face gatherings are designed to help you shed societal expectations, uncover deeper truths, and reawaken the joy and magic of being yourself.

What Makes Pussy Palace Special?

✨ Authenticity & Belonging: Leave behind the noise and performance of everyday life. Here, you’re encouraged to show up exactly as you are.
✨ Ancient Traditions for Modern Life: Inspired by Red Tent practices, Pussy Palace brings back the lost art of gathering, sharing stories, and learning from one another.
✨ Connection & Reflection: Our circles offer a chance to feel deeply seen and heard in real-time. Healing isn’t something we do alone - here, we heal together.
✨ A Different Theme Each Month: Each gathering explores a new topic, keeping the experience fresh and filled with curiosity.

Is Pussy Palace Right for You?

This space is for anyone longing for genuine connection, healing, and exploration. You’re a perfect fit if:
- You crave real community and connection with others.
- You feel disconnected from yourself, your body, or others in your life.
- You’re curious about exploring personal development in a circle setting.
- You’ve always wanted to experience a women's or spiritual circle.
- You believe in the magic of healing through community.
- You want to feel seen and accepted for who you are, without judgment.
- You want to try something new - or rediscover something ancient.
- You desire a safe space where you can explore self-expression freely.

Whether you feel ready to be seen or fear being seen - this is a space for you. And it’s a space for your friend, sibling, mother, or anyone you believe would benefit from this sacred experience.

What to Expect:

✨ Monthly Gatherings: Each circle dives into a new theme, announced closer to the event to keep the mystery alive.
✨ Authentic Sharing & Introspection: Expect moments of group connection and personal insight, allowing you to reflect deeply on your life.
✨ Tea & Treats: At the end of each gathering, we share tea and light snacks - a simple but beautiful tradition of connection.
✨ Dress to Feel Like YOU: Wear whatever makes you feel most comfortable and authentic. Whether it’s leggings, a dress, or a full lycra suit. Comfort and ease of movement are recommended.
✨ What to Bring: A water bottle, a journal, and an optional plate to share (if it feels right for you).

Inclusion at Pussy Palace:

Pussy Palace warmly welcomes women, non-binary folks, and trans people who resonate with “pussy energy” - soft, nurturing, receptive, creative, and magnetic. This is not a space for anatomical work but rather a place for energetic alignment. If you connect with the essence of this energy, you belong here. For deeper, vulva-specific work, Chloe offers other programs.

If you’re ready to explore, grow, and connect, we can’t wait to welcome you into the **Pussy Palace**.

This event offers a unique blend of emotional processing, free-flow dance, and somatic exercises, designed to guide us out of our heads and back into our bodies. Through nervous system regulation, emotional release, and authentic expression, we move beyond merely surviving—into thriving.

Emotion = energy in motion. Yet, as a society, we have grown accustomed to suppressing our emotions. Because of this, our emotions remain stuck and stagnant within the body, waiting to be liberated through movement, awareness and presence.

Shake it off gives us an opportunity to safely release stress and stored emotions through movement and emotional expression tools. It allows us to reconnect with ourselves through our body. All while building our emotional and physical fitness.

Event Inclusions:

• Emotional expression techniques: We start the event by going through some of our favourite tools and techniques for experiencing and releasing our emotions.

• Dance and movement: Moving has never been so fun, a curated musical journey invites us to dance, and tune into the way that our body desires to move. No dance experience required for this free-flow session.

• Somatic exercises: Ending the event with deep relaxation, be guided through some gentle, rhythmic exercises that are scientifically designed to regulate your nervous system.

Dance, release, and express at this somatic event, created to leave you feeling lighter and freer.

About your host:

Shahna Sarpi, Somatics & embodiment mentor. - @shahnasarpi

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release.

For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

Ever wondered what happens when we create a space to experiment with how we relate to ourselves and others?

This event invites you to step out of your default modes of interaction, drop the masks, and explore authentic relating. Together, we'll play with communication and discovering new ways of being through experiential games.

What to Expect:

- A playful atmosphere to experiment with authentic connection.

- Activities that bring out hidden parts of yourself.

- Communicate differently, with exercises like using only two words to express yourself.

- Reflect on your experiences to deepen self-awareness and connection with self and others.

Why Join?

If you’re ready to play, connect, and explore what it means to be truly present with yourself and others, this is for you. You’ll discover new insights, build meaningful connections, and surprise yourself with what emerges.

About your facilitator: Matthew - @matthews.labs

Matthew has had an interest in self and relational exploration. Curious about how play can be harnessed to find more integrity he has used the experiences of overcoming his struggles as fuel to be in service to others. In the mid 2010s he became a certified massage therapist and yoga teacher. Over the past few years he has deepened and embodied a more expressive relationship with himself and others through exploring workshops and trainings such as Ecstatic Dance, Authentic Relating, ISTA, Breathwork, Process work and the Human Forest, a consensual touch group experience.

His struggle with social anxiety has been deeply supported by Authentic Relating more than he ever could have imagined. Matthew values creating and holding spaces that are kind, clear, expressive, and exploratory. He brings his own unique flavour of play and exploration to his facilitation. He loves holding spaces where people feel safe enough to show up as the beautifully messy humans that we all are. He believes strongly in meeting everyone at their level and that finding coherence as a group involves everyone’s input.

Things to note:

Centre of You has plenty of bolsters, blankets, and cushions for you to get cosy with. We recommend wearing comfortable, loose clothes to enable deep breathing and sitting/laying upon the floor with ease. A journal is recommended as are any familiar personal items that will aid you in feeling grounded (crystal, teddy, scarf, etc).

Personal responsibility: Please make an assessment on whether you are feeling stable and resourced enough to explore the practices on offer in this event.

Arrival: Endeavour to arrive between 6:15pm - 6:30pm. To preserve the experience for all involved, doors will close at 6:45pm. Truly, it breaks our heart to have to turn latecomers away yet the disruption to the whole group experience by virtue of lateness does require management. We ask that you find understanding and consideration for the timebound nature of the container and make every effort to arrive on time.

Driving: Know Centre of You is on Chapel St and ample time to find a car spot is best to be factored into your plans. Park direct on Chapel St (spots unmetered after 5pm) or in Anchor Place, the open-air parking lot in the side street that runs opposite Centre of You (unmetered after 4pm).

Public transport - tram: Both the number 6 tram & 78 tram stop on the corner of High St/Chapel St. This is stop 31 on the number 6 tram (Moreland/Glen Iris) & stop 45 on the number 78 tram (North Richmond/Balaclava).

Public transport - train: Both Prahran & Windsor stations along the Sandringham Line will get you walking distance to Centre of You.

Finding Centre of You: Centre of You is nestled within the arcade that Chapel St Bazaar is in (217 Chapel St). It is up a flight of stairs with a wide landing at the half-way-point. Unfortunately, this current version of Centre of You does not have a wheelchair accessible lift. If you could use support in getting up the stairs or would like to discuss ways to make your experience at Centre of You more comfortable, please reach out via hello@centreofyou.com.au or via DM over on Centre of You Instagram.

This is your time.

You know it's your time.

You have been putting it off for too long.

You have been putting yourself, your dreams and your desires off for as long as you know it.

You have been people pleasing your way through life until now.

You have been embodying the identity of 'Mr Nice Guy' and you are feeling frustrated with where you are at in life.

If you're in romantic relationship, your partner yearns for you to step up, to be the masculine leader within the relationship, to step into your POWER. There's an underlying craving and need for the real and authentic you to come forward (not the people pleaser and nice guy).

Your dreams, desires and goals are calling you. This is your time to express what you want out of life and announce what is no longer aligned anymore.

Your partner / potential partner, your (future) children, the world, they all need you, the REAL you.

Everything you ever desired is waiting for you, though you need to finally and unapologetically CLAIM IT! You need to get clear on what you stand for, what you'll fight for, what direction you're moving towards.

How much longer will you allow the parts of you that are scared and fearful to get in the way of what your true and authentic self. How much longer will you be ok with foregoing what you REALLY want out of life?

You are worthy. Be the man you were born to be.

This is the time to claim your power. Are you in?

What to expect:

Join a group of like-minded men for a night of stepping up as authentic powerhouses. A safe, masculine container for you to show up unapologetically authentic will be created where all of your parts are welcome. This includes any or all of your emotions that are present including sadness, frustration, anger, joy, excitement, nervousness, etc. Together all your parts will be witnessed and held in the brotherhood of a non-judgemental safe container.

On offer to walk away with…

~ Clarity on what is or isn’t aligned

~ Confidence to fully and authentically express yourself

~ Action steps for the next month ahead

~ A deep sense that your voice is worthy of being heard

~ A community of like-minded men who have your back

~ Feeling f*cking powerful as a man

About your facilitator - Melvin @melvinsjerps

Melvin is a Men’s Coach & Mentor and is devoted to helping men who have been people pleasing, lone-wolfing it and lacking purpose, to reclaim their POWER, take responsibility and step into the 2.0 version of themselves. He is the founder of Cold Water Vikings and he is a facilitator at The Gathering Of Men.

Testimonials:

"I attended the men's circle to connect with other men and challenge myself to be vulnerable and self aware. Melvin creates a safe space where he leads by example, slowing down, speaking his truth, and being present and respectful. The exercises were useful in identifying what I want and don't want in my life. Listening to others speak, and also sharing my own thoughts, made me feel more connected to the other participants, and less isolated in my problems. Would recommend to anyone who is currently trying to deal with the challenges of being a man in todays world on their own." - Thomas

"I attended this Men's Circle with an open mind and I'm glad I did. I found Melvin to be an excellent facilitator. He made every man in the room feel comfortable with his calm, yet strong demeanour and clear expertise in understanding the challenges many men face. The session was well balanced between some teachings and some interactions. By the end of it, the energy in the room was powerful and I certainly took a lot from the experience. Most importantly, I know I am not alone in my journey, and now feel part of a brotherhood!" - Gerard

"I attended the workshop for a new challenge and to get clarity about what I do and don’t want in my life. Since attending the workshop I’ve noticed that I have greater access to my emotional body, in particular anger. I can access this part of me which I typically shut down. Melvin has helped me with many things. In particular I always leave our interactions with greater levels of clarity about the direction of my life. He has a knack for getting me to commit to the actions in my life which I know I need to do but keep putting off. If you’re on the fence about attending a workshop that Melvins running I’d say 100% give it go. It’s important to show up and give it everything you’ve got so you can get the most out of the experience. " - Sam

This event offers a unique blend of emotional processing, free-flow dance, and somatic exercises, designed to guide us out of our heads and back into our bodies. Through nervous system regulation, emotional release, and authentic expression, we move beyond merely surviving—into thriving.

Emotion = energy in motion. Yet, as a society, we have grown accustomed to suppressing our emotions. Because of this, our emotions remain stuck and stagnant within the body, waiting to be liberated through movement, awareness and presence.

Shake it off gives us an opportunity to safely release stress and stored emotions through movement and emotional expression tools. It allows us to reconnect with ourselves through our body. All while building our emotional and physical fitness.

Event Inclusions:

• Emotional expression techniques: We start the event by going through some of our favourite tools and techniques for experiencing and releasing our emotions.

• Dance and movement: Moving has never been so fun, a curated musical journey invites us to dance, and tune into the way that our body desires to move. No dance experience required for this free-flow session.

• Somatic exercises: Ending the event with deep relaxation, be guided through some gentle, rhythmic exercises that are scientifically designed to regulate your nervous system.

Dance, release, and express at this somatic event, created to leave you feeling lighter and freer.

About your host:

Shahna Sarpi, Somatics & embodiment mentor. - @shahnasarpi

Shahna works with the body and nervous system to people out of survival mode, into a state of thriving on every level. Taking people from stressed, suppressed and exhausted… to healthy, free and radiant.

Having seen the immense power in somatic tools, emotional health and authentic expression from personal experience, Shahna now guides people home to their most empowered selves, through the body.

Gather in ritual under the Gemini New Moon, with cacao, gentle breath and deep rest for an evening of clarity, connection and renewal.

A Gemini New Moon + Cacao Ceremony + Deep Rest with Donna + Frankie

We gather under the airy glow of the Gemini New Moon - a time of fresh starts, communication, and community.

Join Donna and Frankie for an evening of deep presence, gentle breath, and heartful connection under the energy of the Gemini New Moon.

This ceremony is an invitation to soften into stillness and reconnect with your inner voice - the one that knows what’s ready to be expressed, released, or dreamed into being. Gemini, the sign of air, brings movement, curiosity, and communication. Through ritual, reflection, and rest, we’ll anchor these airy whispers into the body and heart.

Together, we’ll journey through:

• A sacred blessing of Mama Cacao to open the heart

• Gentle breathwork to clear the mind and deepen presence

• Journaling and reflective prompts to support intention-setting

• A 15-minute guided meditation to settle the nervous system and awaken inner clarity

• Restorative yoga to soothe and integrate

• A closing circle to gently seal your intentions

This is a space for slowing down, tuning in, and remembering that your voice - spoken or silent - matters.

Bring your journal or anything you’d like to place on the altar (crystal, flower, photo, or written prayer). Let this be your time to breathe, receive, and begin again.

An evening of deep connection and sacred ritual with the heart-opening medicine of Mama Cacao. Calling upon the Four Directions, the Universe, and Pachamama (Mother Earth), we call in our highest frequencies of light and love to anchor our prayers and intentions.

Mama Cacao’s ancestral wisdom is powerful for clarity, transformation, and heart healing. She gently guides us to explore within, releasing what no longer serves us and embracing new possibilities.

Her medicine reminds us of the infinite beauty within.

Restorative Yoga: Deep Rest and Receiving

Restorative yoga is about deep surrender and relaxation. This practice activates the parasympathetic nervous system, allowing the heart rate to slow and the breath to deepen. Supported poses with props create a sanctuary for letting go, restoring balance, and softening into inner stillness.

Through supported poses, intentional breathwork, ceremonial elements, and soothing music, her offerings weave together ancient wisdom and modern practice - cultivating presence, joy, and heartfelt liberation.

Dance, connect, and celebrate in a vibrant, clear-minded space with incredible DJs, immersive lighting, and pure, high-energy movement.

Welcome to Dance Tribe, where the energy of nightclub culture meets the clarity of a sober dance floor.

This is not ecstatic dance. This is not a typical club night. This is a space where we come together to dance, connect, and celebrate, free from alcohol and substances.

With incredible DJs, immersive lighting, and a vibrant atmosphere, Dance Tribe is about pure movement, music, and community. It’s a place where you can let loose, meet like-minded people, and experience the joy of dance in a fun, safe, and sustainable way.

💃 🕺 Why we dance

For years, dancers have found joy in movement. Whether in clubs, at festivals, or under the stars in nature. But what truly happens when people dance together?

Entrainment, a phenomenon studied in music therapy, reveals how heartbeats synchronize with the rhythm of the music and the movements of those around them. This explains why dancefloor moments feel so deeply connective. Minutes turn into hours as breath, heartbeat, and body movements align with the beat, creating a powerful sense of unity.

The science of entrainment explores how auditory rhythmic patterns influence motor responses, a key concept in neurologic music therapy. This phenomenon, known as rhythmic entrainment, allows movements to synchronize naturally with music, as seen in dancing, drumming, and other musical activities.

Who this event is for:

Dance Tribe is for anyone who loves to dance and connect. Whether a seasoned dancefloor enthusiast or someone looking for a fresh way to enjoy music and movement, this space offers an uplifting and sustainable approach to nightlife.

For those seeking more meaningful connections beyond the usual clubbing experience, Dance Tribe provides an opportunity to engage with music, community, and self-expression on a deeper level, without the addition of alcohol or substances.

Whether you're a festival lover, a longtime club-goer ready for a new kind of night out, a conscious movement enthusiast, or simply someone who thrives on the energy of a dancefloor, this space is designed to be welcoming, vibrant, and nourishing.

Dance Tribe Sundays is the perfect way to move, connect, and start the week feeling refreshed and inspired.

What to expect:

Arrival – Settle in, get comfortable, and enjoy delicious snacks while soaking in the warm-up DJ set.

Opening Circle – A short welcome to set intentions, allowing connection with the group, and tune into the space.

Dance Journey Begins – The main DJ sets take over, guiding you through deep grooves, euphoric highs, and full-bodied movement. Let loose, feel the bass, and dance like nobody's watching.

Sound Healing & Relaxation – Wind down with soothing sounds, allowing your body to integrate the energy of the dance.

Closing Circle – A space to reflect, share, and integrate the experience before transitioning back into daily life.

Official Close 6pm – For those who wish to stay, enjoy tea and conversation with your Dance Tribe. Some may head out to dinner afterward, while others may simply float home, ready to embrace the week ahead.

Dancing is a powerful way to shake off stress and boost your mood with high-vibe movement. It strengthens bonds with others through music and dance, creating a deep sense of connection. The freedom of movement brings pure joy, while the experience leaves you feeling refreshed, present, and grounded. As rhythm, breath, and movement awaken the body, a sense of vitality and upliftment emerges. Beyond the dance floor, it contributes to overall physical and mental well-being, serving as one of the best full-body workouts. The energy and inspiration from the experience can carry into the week ahead, bringing a renewed sense of enthusiasm and clarity.

A gentle journey through restorative yoga and meditation to slow down, sense, feel, and reconnect with the wisdom of body, mind & soul.

Sensing, Feeling, and Becoming Present in Your Body, Mind & Soul

Join us for this 2hr journey into the heart of presence, designed to reconnect you with your body’s innate wisdom.

Through mindful movement and deeply supported restorative yoga poses, you'll be guided to gently tune in to the subtle messages of your body, breath and emotions. Each pose is paired with a short meditative reflection, inviting you to slow down, feel deeply and cultivate a sense of embodied awareness that ripples into your daily life.

This practice is less about stretching and more about sensing, less about doing and more about being. As you soften into each shape, your body becomes a sacred space for healing and restoration. You'll explore themes such as releasing tension, cultivating presence, deepening the mind-body connection and listening to what your heart truly desires. This is an opportunity to regulate the nervous system, ground your energy and experience the power of slow, conscious embodiment.

As you move through the workshop, you’ll be invited into the art of sensing, feeling and becoming fully present in your body, mind and soul. This inner listening allows you to awaken somatic intelligence, your body’s way of communicating its truth. Rather than overriding discomfort or emotion, you’ll learn to meet yourself with compassion and curiosity. The wisdom you seek is already within you, waiting to be felt, heard and trusted.

Whether you’re new to yoga or an experienced practitioner, this workshop offers a nurturing environment to explore the power of embodied presence and self-connection. Inner Listening invites you to come home to yourself, not through effort, but through stillness and surrender. You’ll leave feeling grounded, clear and more attuned to your inner truth - a gentle reconnection to the guidance that lives within.

Is life keeping you stuck in overdrive? No matter how much self-care you do, do you still end up feeling on edge or exhausted, almost like you're just wired that way?

The truth is, this is a natural response to the demands of modern life and the state of the world right now. Many of our nervous systems are working overtime in response to constant stimuli, screens, and stressors…

The good news is that it is possible to rewire this programming and gently build your capacity to feel grounded and resilient amidst the chaos.

Based on the teachings of Polyvagal Theory, this Nervous System Rewire class will teach you simple and empowering self-regulation tools to retrain your brain and rebuild a robust nervous system, so you no longer feel stuck and can confidently handle stress.

When you rewire your nervous system, you reclaim your vitality, regulate your emotions, and rebuild your ability to be present and connected with loved ones, and with yourself.

This class is open to anyone; no prior experience is necessary. The practices are useful both as a preventative measure and to ease the impact of acute or chronic stress.

What to Expect

Expect a kind and inviting space where you can show up just as you are as we gently explore a series of:

✨ Vagal toning exercises that work directly with your vagus nerve to stimulate rest, digestion, and repair.

✨ Trauma-sensitive yoga and gentle movement to enliven the felt sense and improve interoception.

✨ Gentle breathwork to quiet the mind and create space for your true self to emerge.

✨ Stress-release practices to discharge incomplete stress energy and complete the stress cycle.

✨ Journaling and reflection exercises to help integrate the teachings and shifts.

✨ Co-regulation and the inherent benefits of being in shared space with community.

About you facilitator - Sally @sallypriestley

Sally is a yoga teacher and embodiment mentor passionate about bringing spirituality and science together in sacred spaces with a focus on nervous system support and mind-body-spirit connection. 

Previously, Sally worked as a commercial lawyer, struggling with anxiety, chronic pain and a deep longing for a sense of wholeness and connection that felt elusive. 

Through her own journey Sally came to realise the importance of working with the nervous system to access the body's innate healing intelligence and rewire subconscious behaviours that keep us stuck in survival patterns which inhibit optimal health, mental clarity and whole self connection.

Today, Sally draws on over 18 years of devoted practice and specialist study in nervous system health and trauma sensitive yoga to guide others back to their bodies and gently unravel the stresses of modern life.

Sally teaches in a nurturing and invitational style with modifications to meet you exactly where you’re at in every practice.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Healing Ancestral Lines

Break free from intergenerational trauma—the root cause of human suffering. This transformative journey is for those seeking to sever the chains of these struggles and halt the cycle of trauma. Unresolved intergenerational trauma manifests as chronic anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and disconnection. Experience profound healing and resilience as you release these burdens. Rewrite your narrative, restore harmony within, and create a legacy of empowerment. Liberate yourself from the cycles of suffering and pave the way for a brighter future.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

Contraindications:

If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release.

For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

Welcome to a cosy chrysalis and gentle holding space for a deep, full-body rest, reset, and return home to Self. Come and experience rest like never before.

This is an invitation into deep slowness - a slow-dripped descent into your body through a somatic and sensory journey of long-held yin yoga, embodied movement, yoga nidra, and live sound. You'll be supported to reconnect with your body, the earth, and the greater tapestry of the cosmos.

A sacred pause - for less doing, more being, and more feeling.
A remembrance that there is nothing we need to do to be whole, for we already are.

Through rest, we can expand our sense of connection to others, to self, to our bodies, our intuitive and extra-sensory perception, our earth body, community, ancestors, and the collective cosmic body situated beyond time, space, land, and history. All this, by sinking gently into transportive, luxurious rest.

In this workshop, you’ll be guided to:

~ Sensitise your capacity to feel the subtle cues of your body and its wisdom
~ Regulate, attune to, and expand the resilience of your nervous system
~ Lean back and allow your body its innate right to self-repair, regenerate, and renew
~ Tap into the inner wellspring of spaciousness, clarity, creativity, and vitality
~ Explore rest as a doorway into dreams, altered states, and intuitive knowing

In rest, we remember who we truly are and what we truly need before the noise of the world came in. In rest, we remember our enoughness.

What’s Included:
~ Embodied yin yoga (supported, long-held shapes with props)
~ Gentle somatic movement and breath practices
~ A unique, creative approach to yoga nidra
~ Live soundscape with sacred and ethereal instruments

Our approach to all practices invites self-discovery and encourages you to lean into your own body's wisdom, power, guidance, and discernment.

All practices are optional and invitational.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Embodied Yin Yoga
Yin yoga weaves long-held postures supported by generous props to dissolve deep-tissue tension. Our approach also invites gentle movement, interoceptive awareness, emotional presence, and subtle sensation - each posture a renewed opportunity to notice, soften, and be with what is. Through stillness and mindful movement, we enliven tissue and fluids, process stored memory, and begin to soften habitual holding patterns by creating safety, resilience, and nervous system expansion.

Gentle Somatic Movement
Within the slowness and stillness, we explore gentle movement - within yin shapes and throughout the session - to move stagnant energy, express emotions, unwind tension, and sensitise body and emotional awareness, giving space for what’s within to move freely.

Gentle Breathwork
Woven throughout are short parasympathetic breath practices to support nervous system regulation and down-regulation - shifting states softly, deepening rest, awakening vitality, and expanding our capacity for energy and balance.

Yoga Nidra
Like you’ve never experienced it. Yoga Nidra is a guided lying meditation, often called “yogic sleep,” offering transformative rest with meditative awareness. Jess’s Nidra journeys are deeply embodied, expansive, and intuitive - blending creative transmission with space for personal agency and inner exploration. Optional and invitational, this is not your conventional Nidra, but a layered descent into visionary, altered states.

Live Sound
For the past 17 years, Max has facilitated sacred song and sound journeys using a blend of acoustic and electronic instruments. He leads the chanting of mantras and sacred songs from around the world, creating a sonic experience that moves people deeply. Let yourself be held in the energizing womb of guitar, crystal bowls, djembe, handpan, drums, and voice - floating along a river of soft, comforting vibrations that shift energy, attune the nervous system, and leave you feeling whole, harmonious, and connected.

A playful & immersive journey into the self as a vessel for ancient, ancestral sound, awakening through the resonance of the medicine drum.

This is not an activity for the ego, it is one for the soul. It's a practice of reclaiming access to your voice, your sound, your expression your way, at your pace, at your volume. We gather as our bloodlines have throughout our ancestry known and unknown in community circle.

About this experience:

Step into a sacred playspace where the resonance of the medicine drum meets the authentic voice within. This is an invitation to honour the drum in its simplicity, in its elemental make-up, and in its deep ancestral lineage. As we connect with the heartbeat of the drum, we open ourselves to the wisdom it carries, allowing sound to move through us in spontaneous, uninhibited expression.

This is a journey of exploration, not expectation - a space where sound emerges naturally. There will be absolutely no pressure placed within the space for singing or sounding alone.

Whether you are new to vocal expression and drum chanting or are already familiar with the power of your voice, this gathering offers a supportive container to connect with the unseen threads of ancestral sound that we are the carriers of.

This is a co-created gathering of spirituality, grounding and introspection accessed through the meditative, ritualistic, rhythmic trance state of chanting and shamanic/medicine drumming.

What to expect:

• Feeling the resonance of the medicine drum within your body and energy field

• Honouring the drum’s elemental makeup and ancestral ties

• Playing with spontaneous, intuitive, free vocal expression

• Experimenting with basic drum rhythms and learning drum chants

• Experiencing yourself as a channel for sound

There is absolutely no need to know how to drum or chant. Join with an open heart and a playful spirit. You may be surprised by the sounds that live within you and how it feels to allow them the freedom of expression.

Bring your frame drum / medicine drum / shamanic drum if you have one. If not, come as you are - we have a variety of drums you can use at Centre of You.

About your facilitator - Grace Elizabeth - @centreofyou_chapelst

You will be guided through this experience by founder and director of Centre of You, Grace Elizabeth. Sharing song was instrumental to Grace's identity in her high school days as captain of her school choir, Stacella, an acappela choir centred around tribal, world and devotional music. During Shamanic Breathwork training in 2019, Grace found immediate resonance with the practice of shamanic/medicine drumming and chanting. Drum chants led into mantra chanting where she fell in deep alignment with kirtan (devotional call and response singing). Grace is continuing her journey towards reclaiming and regaining trust, acceptance and love for her voice through the devotional routes of kirtan and drum chanting after repressing it for two decades. Upon Grace's personal vocal reclamation journey, she has come to the realisation that the desire to befriend one's voice, spoken or sung, is a collectively shared one by many. Grace adores catching divine-gifted chants when streamed through her own consciousness, of which she feels are an honour to share.

Energy In Motion: An Ecstatic Dance & Cacao Journey

Welcome to Energy In Motion, a transformational event where ecstatic dance, cacao, and emotional release come together to create an unforgettable experience. This is more than an event; it's a journey of self-discovery and expression, offering a blend of personal growth, community connection, and joyful celebration.

Emotion is energy in motion, and this experience is designed to support emotional processing with an undercurrent of bliss. It's about inner exploration and embodied expression, all within a vibrant, party-like atmosphere. Personal development can be fun, and we're here to prove it.

May Event: Crown Chakra

Remember your divinity and connection to oneness by joining us this May as we explore the Crown Chakra.

The crown chakra, also known as the sahasrara, is all about spiritual connection. Associated with the element of thought, it’s linked to wisdom, unity, and universal consciousness.

Throughout the evening, we’ll connect with the crown chakra by connecting to the cosmos.

This event is an opportunity to dance and an invitation to transform through beauty, play, and the pleasure of being fully present in your body.

Experience Highlights

• Ecstatic Dance: A space for free expression. Let go of inhibition and move to the rhythm. No dance experience needed, just an open heart.

• Cacao Ceremony: Connect with this heart-opening plant medicine, traditionally known as "food of the Gods." The ceremony invites emotional clarity and deeper connection to self while fueling your desire to dance.

• Chakra Exploration: Each event focuses on one of the seven chakras. From the root to the crown, we journey through these energetic centers, integrating their wisdom and embracing their power.

Community Guidelines

• Be present: No phones

• Be clear: No intoxicants

• Be embodied: No talking during the dance

• Be respectful: Consensual contact only

Join us at Energy In Motion for a transformative experience where you can dance, connect, and evolve with a community of kindred spirits.

Together, let’s celebrate the full spectrum of the human experience and transform through the power of movement, music, and shared energy.

Join Us for a 7-Month Experience (Optional)

This event is part of a chakra journey series running over seven months. Each gathering is dedicated to one of the body's energy centers, inviting a deeper exploration of its qualities.

Whether you're coming to one event or joining the full journey, each experience is designed to activate and embody the energy of a specific chakra. And if you're just keen to dance, sip cacao, and be with community, you're just as welcome.

We’ll be joined by some of Melbourne’s finest ecstatic dance DJs and guest facilitators. While each event stands alone, there’s also a special all-access pass if you feel called to join the full series.

Since that time, she has interwoven these lessons and practices into what she does personally, but also professionally.

Surrender to the Healing Power Within in this Breathwork & Sound Journey

Step into a transformative space where breath and sound unite to guide you into profound rest, release, and inner stillness. In this immersive journey, you will be gently led into a meditative state, allowing the mind to quieten and the body to deeply recharge. Through the power of breathwork and sound, we create a container for healing, where you can reconnect with your true self and release any stagnant energy within.

The session begins with a deep dive into breathwork, a practice that encourages you to surrender to your inner landscape. As you breathe, you’ll uncover layers of emotional and physical tension, giving yourself permission to let go and make space for a renewed version of yourself. This process allows you to enter a restful parasympathetic state, where deep healing and transformation can occur.

Surrounded by the soothing vibrations of sound, you’ll be enveloped in a sensory experience that nurtures the body and mind, bringing you to a place of calm, clarity, and connection. Through this journey, you’ll awaken to the healing power that resides within, emerging grounded, peaceful, and attuned to the wisdom of your body.

What to Expect:

~ Breathwork to release tension and emotional blockages
~ Soundscapes that guide you into deep relaxation and presence
~ A nurturing, safe space to surrender and heal
~ Deep rest for the body, mind, and spirit

This is an invitation to reconnect with your inner self and experience the profound power of surrender. Let the journey unfold as you release, restore, and return to a place of balance and peace.

About your facilitator - Jayden McGrath @jaydenmcgrath_

Growing up in the small town of Alice Springs, Jayden found his expression through music at an early age, and it quickly became his closest companion. In 2016, he discovered breathwork as a way to battle deep depression, and after completing his first facilitator training in 2017, Jayden was captivated by the ability to shift perspectives and create profound change without the need for external substances.

After years of sharing this knowledge part-time and completing additional training, Jayden eventually decided to leave his trade as an electrician and dedicate himself fully to this work. When his background in music performance and production intersected with the inner world of breathwork, everything changed. Jayden is here to guide you on a journey through your inner landscape like no other, empowering you to take control of your life and equipping you with the tools for success and abundance.

A deeply immersive & transformative sound experience journey into the Power of Om.

This workshop aims to provide a powerful, felt experience of connecting to the original sound—the sound from which all sounds arise and to which all sounds return. To leave not just feeling amazing but with a valuable, life-changing tool.

The session begins with gentle movement to open and release physical tension, preparing the body to receive deeper levels of relaxation. As participants connect to their breath, they will naturally align their mind and body, allowing for greater presence and inner stillness.

Part 1: A brief discourse on the importance of Om, exploring its spiritual significance and some of the benefits of working with this powerful mantra.

Part 2: The group will come together for Om chanting, supported by the beautiful sound of the shruti box. Through the collective vibration of Om, participants will feel the resonance flow through them, grounding them in a state of balance and connection. There will be 108 recitations.

Part 3: The session concludes with a full sound journey that incorporates various healing instruments, guiding participants into deep relaxation, enhanced by the soundscape’s soothing frequencies. Participants may leave feeling centered, refreshed, and attuned to their inner harmony.

Chanting "Om" offers a wide range of benefits, both physiological and psychological, rooted in its vibrational and spiritual qualities:

💓 Calms the Nervous System: The vibration created by chanting Om stimulates the vagus nerve, helping activate the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation and reducing stress and anxiety.

💓 Balances Emotions: The rhythmic chanting of Om can help balance emotional fluctuations, fostering a sense of inner peace and emotional clarity.

💓 Improves Focus and Mental Clarity: Chanting Om allows the mind to shift away from distractions, enhancing concentration and mindfulness. The repetitive nature of the sound helps clear mental clutter.

💓 Enhances Respiratory Function: The extended exhalation during chanting can improve breath control, expand lung capacity, and regulate breathing patterns, contributing to overall respiratory health.

💓 Boosts Positive Energy: Om is believed to generate positive vibrations that resonate with the body's energy centers (chakras), particularly the third eye and crown chakras. This fosters a deeper connection to spiritual awareness and higher consciousness.

💓 Promotes a Sense of Unity: Chanting Om in a group setting creates a powerful collective energy, encouraging feelings of connection and unity, both with others and with the universe.

A sacred women's gathering to reflect, release and realign under May’s Full Moon with sound healing, ritual and soulful connection.

Full Moon in Scorpio: Let Go & Trust Your Inner Wisdom

🌕 A sacred evening for women ready to slow down, reflect, and reconnect under the potent light of May’s Full Moon.

The Full Moon in Scorpio brings deep emotional currents to the surface. It's a powerful time to tune in, release what no longer serves, and embrace the transformation unfolding from within. This moon asks us to trust - not in having all the answers, but in our willingness to feel, listen, and allow.

What the Scorpio Full Moon invites us into:
Scorpio energy encourages us to explore the shadows, honour emotional truth, and shed old patterns and stories. Opposing the grounding Taurus Sun, this lunation highlights the dance between what we cling to and what we’re ready to let go of – especially when it comes to what we carry that may not be ours.

This is a time to:

• Let go of stuck emotions, outdated beliefs, and inherited burdens

• Reconnect with your own truth and intuition

• Open space for new beginnings and deeper alignment

What to Expect:
You’re invited to an intimate, heart-led gathering where women can soften into stillness, breathe deeply, and come home to themselves. Through a gentle yet powerful journey of sound healing, journaling, and ritual, we will honour the emotional intensity of the Full Moon while creating spaciousness for clarity and calm.

Together we will:

• Set intentions and reflect through guided journaling

• Experience a soul-nourishing sound healing to support emotional release

• Engage in a simple yet meaningful ritual to honour what’s being let go

• Sit in sacred circle, supported by community, as we reset and realign

✨ This evening is for you if you're:

• Feeling emotionally heavy or ready to let something go

• Moving through a transition or seeking clarity

• Craving connection with your intuition and inner wisdom

• Longing to feel held in a nurturing, heart-centred space

What's included:

• Heart-opening cacao ceremony

• Powerful sound bath (gongs, crystal bowls, drums, voice + more)

• Guided journaling & meditation

• Releasing ritual

• Aboriginal Oracle & moon manifestation cards

• Optional sharing circle

• Space to connect with kind-hearted and curious women

• Nourishing nibbles + tea

Leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and gently transformed.

This event offers a unique blend of emotional processing, free-flow dance, and somatic exercises, designed to guide us out of our heads and back into our bodies. Through nervous system regulation, emotional release, and authentic expression, we move beyond merely surviving—into thriving.

Emotion = energy in motion. Yet, as a society, we have grown accustomed to suppressing our emotions. Because of this, our emotions remain stuck and stagnant within the body, waiting to be liberated through movement, awareness and presence.

Shake it off gives us an opportunity to safely release stress and stored emotions through movement and emotional expression tools. It allows us to reconnect with ourselves through our body. All while building our emotional and physical fitness.

Event Inclusions:

• Emotional expression techniques: We start the event by going through some of our favourite tools and techniques for experiencing and releasing our emotions.

• Dance and movement: Moving has never been so fun, a curated musical journey invites us to dance, and tune into the way that our body desires to move. No dance experience required for this free-flow session.

• Somatic exercises: Ending the event with deep relaxation, be guided through some gentle, rhythmic exercises that are scientifically designed to regulate your nervous system.

Dance, release, and express at this somatic event, created to leave you feeling lighter and freer.

Join this multi-sensory soundscape experience that promotes emotional release, self-discovery & helps you reconnect with your true self.

9D Breathwork is an innovative and transformative practice that combines advanced breathwork techniques with a multi-sensory sound experience. Utilizing conscious connected breathing, participants enter a heightened state of awareness, allowing them to connect deeply with their inner selves and facilitate profound healing and transformation. This experience is enhanced by the integration of binaural beats, isochronic tones, solfeggio frequencies, and bioacoustic sound effects, all designed to support your journey into deeper states of consciousness.

Through this immersive approach, participants are invited to explore their subconscious mind, awaken their inner healer, and release emotional blockages. The specially curated soundscapes create an environment that promotes relaxation, emotional release, and personal insight, enabling profound shifts in perspective and energy.

This 9D Breathwork Journey theme:

Releasing Guilt & Shame.

The Guilt & Shame 9D journey is for individuals who are ready to release the weight of deeply ingrained guilt and shame. If you find yourself struggling with these powerful emotions—whether rooted in past experiences, relationships, or your self-perception—this journey offers a path to healing and liberation. Through immersive breathwork, you'll be guided to delve deep into these feelings, uncover their origins, and begin the process of transformation. This journey is designed to help you cultivate self-acceptance, nurture self-compassion, and ultimately find a sense of inner peace.

What to Expect:

During each 9D Breathwork session, participants can anticipate a dynamic and enriching experience that combines active breathing, guided visualization, and immersive soundscapes. Participants are encouraged to engage with their feelings, express themselves authentically, and embrace the transformative power of the breath. Expect to uncover deeper insights, heal emotional wounds, and tap into your inherent wisdom.

Experiences during the inward journey may include:

✨ Accessing memories from the past and reframing them with compassion

✨ Connecting with the inner child and rediscovering joy and creativity

✨ Engaging in a dialogue with any internal fears, leading to personal empowerment

✨ Experiencing a sense of lightness and freedom while letting go of limiting beliefs

✨ Receiving intuitive insights or messages from a higher self or spirit guides

✨ Experiencing physical sensations of release as energy and emotions flow through the body

Important Information:

9D Breathwork is a powerful practice that may evoke intense emotions and physical sensations. Participants are encouraged to embrace the experience fully, trusting in their ability to navigate whatever arises. Each participant is always in control of their journey, and can adjust their breathing pattern to manage the intensity of the experience.

Contraindications:

While 9D Breathwork can be transformative, it may not be suitable for everyone. If you have a history of seizure disorders, cardiovascular issues, or severe mental health challenges, please consult with a healthcare professional before participating. This workshop is not recommended for individuals under the age of 16 or pregnant women without prior discussion.

Trigger Warning:

The nature of this practice encourages authentic expression, which may manifest as vocalizations, movement, or emotional release. Participants are invited to honor their own process while respecting the journeys of others. If participants are feeling overwhelmed or triggered, they can signal for support. For those seeking a gentler approach, private sessions are available.

An exploration of the consensual touch we truly long to give and receive. A Human Forest for women & female-identifying beings.

Reclaiming Touch: The Mother Line

*A Human Forest for Women & Female-Identifying Beings*

This Mother’s Day Eve

Let us celebrate our mothers.
Let us celebrate the beauty of being a woman –
with this soft and sacred invitation to return to your body, to your rhythm, to yourself.

A journey back to trust.
A quiet homecoming to your inner knowing.
A remembering that your body is yours - and always has been.

We gather in honour of the women who came before us - our mothers, grandmothers, and all the women whose stories live in our bones.
For so many generations, women did not have the privilege of true choice when it came to their bodies.
Autonomy and sovereignty were not always available to them.
And yet, we are here.
And we are the ones who can gently reclaim what was lost,
and teach the generations to come what it truly means to honour the sacredness of being a woman.

To reclaim our bodies.
To reclaim touch.

As women, we give so much.
Our bodies carry life.
Our hearts hold families.
Our touch nurtures everyone around us.
And so often, we do all this without receiving the nourishment we deeply need.

It is time to receive.
To fill your own cup.
To be held in gentleness, care, and reverence.

For many of our foremothers, touch was something expected - not chosen.
Consent was rarely spoken. Boundaries were often invisible.
Their bodies were not always treated as sovereign spaces.
But now, we have the opportunity to rewrite the story - with tenderness, intention, and truth.

A Sanctuary of Sovereignty & Safety

Reclaiming Touch is a loving offering -
a quiet, grounded space to explore the experience of touch in a way that centres your autonomy, honours your boundaries, and trusts your timing.

Here, your body leads.
You are never expected to do anything other than what feels right for you.
Every interaction is guided by non-verbal consent, so your yes, no, or maybe is always enough.

Held in gentle practices, the healing power of the feminine, and the strength of compassionate sisterhood, you’ll be invited to:
✨ Reconnect with the language of your body - listening to its wisdom and signals
✨ Explore touch on your own terms - through witnessing, receiving, offering, or simply resting in presence
✨ Soothe your nervous system - with breath, grounding, and the quiet co-regulation of others
✨ Reclaim your right to be held, seen, and honoured - without pressure or expectation

This is not about pushing past discomfort.
It’s about restoring your right to choose.
It’s about remembering that safety lives in slowness, presence, and choice.

Honouring the Mother Line

On this Mother’s Day Eve, we honour the women before us not only through remembrance,
but by choosing a different way forward.

We choose to listen.
To rest.
To honour our bodies as sacred.
To reclaim the right to say yes - or no -
with clarity, confidence, and care.

Come as you are, exactly as you are.
Whether you long for connection or wish to rest quietly in shared space, you are welcome here.
Let yourself be held in a field of loving respect,
where your body is your own
and your boundaries are a blessing.

-----

WHAT IS A HUMAN FOREST?

For those of you that don't know, a Human Forest Experience is a human ecosystem connected by consensual touch.

Half of the room will be trees who will be blindfolded and receive loving, devotional touch from the other half of the room (the critters). You will have the opportunity to experience being both a tree and a critter.

These events can be powerful, healing opportunities for participants to experience intimacy and joy. Our priority to supporting participants to leave our events feeling opened, cared for and loved.

Come be part of a movement awakening people to the joy filled, healing and restorative power of touch.

------

IMPORTANT:

• In this event we focus on devotional, loving and non-sexually oriented touch. Note: there is no genitalia touch at this event.

• All our events have been remarkably healing and opening for many participants.

• That being said, this is a touch focused event. If you have any history of trauma related to receiving or giving touch, please be in touch with us directly to seriously consider whether this event is right for you.

• Participants are required to be on time to ensure they understand how to communicate their boundaries with clarity and respect via the consent and boundaries section at the commencement of the event.

Are you willing and open for a conscious relationship?

A conscious relationship is one in which both partners feel committed to a sense of purpose, and that purpose is growth. Individual growth. Shared growth as a couple. Collective growth that makes the world a better place.

Maybe you've also been wondering where on earth you can actually meet epic humans that aren’t posting their best blue steel on online dating apps?

Well it's here kindred friends! It’s speed dating with real life kindred folk who are open to conscious relationship AND deep and meaningful, AND also playful, human connection!

INTENTION and FLOW

While you might meet the love of your life, we don’t want you too fixated on the outcome!

Soooooo…. Cast the intention to meet who it is you are desiring to meet and then…

**LET IT GO and LET FLOW!**

You can now relax into the opportunity for an evening of soulful, nourishing connection meeting some incredible people who are on a similar journey to you.

Let’s play some games, meet some humans, see where the night takes us!

TESTIMONIALS

“I’ve never felt so open and safe and held before. The room and the energy was so divine... there was an equalness between us all. It was phenomenal. I came away from this experience with so much more than I thought.”

“I had such a beautiful time. It was so healing and so hope-evoking just to experience that kind of connection and interact with conscious men. It was reaffirming that my standards for intimate connection are not too high after all and that gentle, present, receptive masculinity is out there (I'd only seen it on Instagram 😂).”

“Omg!! What an epic evening. Thank you so much!!”

“So much fun!! I feel invigorated!”

“Super edgy for me, but the facilitators made it really comfortable to be there. I enjoyed the structured games to get to know people on a deeper level.”

------------------------------------------------------------------

PLEASE NOTE: we understand the sensitivity and vulnerability of attending an event like this. We endeavour to make everyone feel as comfortable as possible and to create an atmosphere where you feel safe and encouraged to express yourself as who you really are.

While the intention of this event is to create opportunities for romantic connection, all connection starts as two humans meeting each other for the first time and finding common ground. We suggest you see this event as an opportunity to connect to the common ground of all people participating rather than only the ones you feel an “attraction” to. This creates more safety for all those involved and also enables YOU to have a really enjoyable experience with all your pairings!

Please contact us if you are unsure about anything about this event or would like more details. We would be really happy to talk to you.

Things to note:

Centre of You has plenty of bolsters, blankets, and cushions for you to get cosy with. We recommend wearing comfortable, loose clothes to enable deep breathing, light movement and sitting upon the floor with ease. Chairs are available. A journal is recommended as are any familiar personal items that will aid you in feeling grounded.

Arrival: Doors open at 6:15pm, for a 6:30pm start. Endeavour to arrive for latest 6:15pm to allow time to visit the bathroom and settle in. Truly, it breaks our heart to have to turn latecomers away yet the disruption to the whole group experience by virtue of lateness does require management. We ask that you find understanding and consideration for the timebound nature of the container and make every effort to arrive on time.

Driving: Know Centre of You is on Chapel St and ample time to find a car spot is best to be factored into your plans. Park direct on Chapel St (spots unmetered after 5pm) or in Anchor Place, the open-air parking lot in the side street that runs opposite Centre of You (unmetered after 4pm).

Public transport - tram: Both the number 6 tram & 78 tram stop on the corner of High St/Chapel St. This is stop 31 on the number 6 tram (Moreland/Glen Iris) & stop 45 on the number 78 tram (North Richmond/Balaclava).

Public transport - train: Both Prahran & Windsor stations along the Sandringham Line will get you walking distance to Centre of You.

Finding Centre of You: Centre of You is nestled within the arcade that Chapel St Bazaar is in (217 Chapel St). It is up a flight of stairs with a wide landing at the half-way-point. Unfortunately, this current version of Centre of You does not have a wheelchair accessible lift. If you could use support in getting up the stairs or would like to discuss ways to make your experience at Centre of You more comfortable, please reach out via hello@centreofyou.com.au or via DM over on Centre of You Instagram.

This event offers a unique blend of emotional processing, free-flow dance, and somatic exercises, designed to guide us out of our heads and back into our bodies. Through nervous system regulation, emotional release, and authentic expression, we move beyond merely surviving—into thriving.

Emotion = energy in motion. Yet, as a society, we have grown accustomed to suppressing our emotions. Because of this, our emotions remain stuck and stagnant within the body, waiting to be liberated through movement, awareness and presence.

Shake it off gives us an opportunity to safely release stress and stored emotions through movement and emotional expression tools. It allows us to reconnect with ourselves through our body. All while building our emotional and physical fitness.

Event Inclusions:

• Emotional expression techniques: We start the event by going through some of our favourite tools and techniques for experiencing and releasing our emotions.

• Dance and movement: Moving has never been so fun, a curated musical journey invites us to dance, and tune into the way that our body desires to move. No dance experience required for this free-flow session.

• Somatic exercises: Ending the event with deep relaxation, be guided through some gentle, rhythmic exercises that are scientifically designed to regulate your nervous system.

Dance, release, and express at this somatic event, created to leave you feeling lighter and freer.
