An Open Floor Dance Lab Resourcing us in Turbulent Times
Thursday 24th to Saturday 26th September 2026
Led by Cliona O’Conaill & Tamara Romaniuk
Price range: 160 to €290
Through movement, stillness, and embodied inquiry, we cultivate resilience, inner stability, and connection – practical resources for meeting uncertainty with greater presence, courage, and choice.
Never in our lifetime has so much changed in such a short period of time. As we witness familiar institutions falter, political systems becoming increasingly unstable, the rapid rise of AI, and wars devastating communities across the world, it is easy to feel overwhelmed, helpless, anxious, or disconnected by this unknown world.
Open Floor offers embodied resources that help us cultivate inner stability, resilience, clarity, and connection, enabling us to meet turbulent times with greater presence and choice. Through mindful movement and dance, we reconnect with our innate strengths and discover new ways of navigating uncertainty and change.
Through a series of structures in movement and stillness, inquiry and time in nature, we guide you through embodied practices of grounding, anchoring to the earth, trusting your body, and deepening connection with yourself and others. We explore how to transform anxiety into courage, overwhelm into clarity, and helplessness into meaningful action, so that you can find steadiness in the midst of uncertainty.
The resources we cultivate together are not limited to the dance floor. They become practical tools you can return to in daily life—at home, at work, in relationships, and whenever you find yourself facing challenge, change, or uncertainty.

Facilitators:
Clíona and Tamara have been practising conscious dance and movement for over 25 years and became Open Floor teachers almost a decade ago. They met on the Greek island of Corfu in 2024, shortly after Tamara moved there. Together they collaborated on the Open Floor Embodied Sexuality Lab in 2025 and share a passion for weaving movement, embodiment, and personal transformation into their work.
Drawing on many years of teaching, therapeutic practice, and guiding groups, they bring a rich blend of experience, warmth, and grounded presence. Clíona is also an author, somatic trauma therapist and alchemist, while Tamara integrates somatic psychotherapy, movement, attachment work, and trauma-informed approaches into her teaching.
