In 1999 I went to Chicago with my Dad, Mum and my brother. Dad was in the final stages of cancer and it was a really tough time. I will never forget the unexpected joy of being surprised by the herds of cows in the busy streets of Chicago. See Photo. It lifted us up out of the material world into something more playful and whimsical. We took lots of happy photos and my art brain was very excited by the colour and what was some really interesting content.

I'm sure the 'Elephants' coming to Bridport and the coast will also be able to have that sense of joy. Isn't it just what we need a bit more of at the moment?

Brava Stampede By The Sea for giving artists the opportunity to get involved. Join up peoples and lets support this fantastic charity.

I have been wanting to do a silent disco on the beach all year.

The first one will be on New Years Morning - 8am (sunrise) on East Beach pier.

This will be a very special Get Up and Dance Silent Morning Disco.

The dance floor has a magnificent sea view and fresh air with a tribe of awesome women dancing and laughing around you creating a high vibe intention for the coming year.

Just turn up and put your headphones on and join me on a journey of joy where all you have to do is be yourself.

There’s no wrong moves or level you have to get to. Leave your ego behind and let yourself feel the freedom of allowing yourself to just move however feels good.

Bring a water bottle and all your intentions for 2024. Even if its raining we can dance in the black shelter on the East Beach pier.

BOOKINGS NECESSARY AS PLACES ARE LIMITED

This is a women-only event.

If you enjoy the experience of dancing to disco music and want to start 2024 in a happy and healthy way join at the SPECIAL S...

I’m in The Times today!

My first silent disco was in 2004 at the inaugural Bestival festival on the Isle of Wight. Taking my headset off to check it really was “silent”, and watching everyone lose themselves in Michael Jackson’s Thriller as it was blasted into their ears was an era-defining novelty
