Medicine dance is every 3rd Friday of the Month
7.30pm - 10pm @ Lopemead Farm - Thame
The Medicine Dance is a beautiful, meticulously crafted Dance Journey with a vocal transmission that transports you into the realms of your inner world where healing, wonder and wisdom await.
The Journey is a Shamanic soundscape crafted from many genres, from tribal to trance, folk to funky house, drum and bass to big band, dance hall to church hall. What connects them all is the frequency of love and authenticity.
It is the most incredible honour to hold these dance spaces to unite in a sacred, deep, and joyful way
“Lou’s medicine dance is something else. It is a beautiful mix of ceremony, embodied dance, prayer, shamanism, and activating the new earth codes. It’s a whole body and spirit revival. The music is entrancing, penetrating, and emotive. I’ve attended ecstatic dance tonnes of times worldwide, and this is up there with the very best of them, but with the added benefit of it being utterly unique and blessed with Lou’s special magic.” Sherrin
“Thank you, really thank you For all of you and for the beautiful dancing space you created tonight. No words to describe how grateful I am for this opportunity to participate ” Patriza
“So in awe for the power of your music – I looooved it!!!! – and so much gratitude for the forgotten medicine coming to a whole new life tonight – wuuuhuuu I am flying”
“As a fellow creative and dancer/teacher, I am fully aware of how much effort goes into making something like this flow with such ease. I loved your true authentic vibe; I can see this is your true vocation, bringing souls together with your passions.” – Jen
I began running Ecstatic Dance/Sober Ravers in early 2018 on Sunday mornings, and then I began to create a more sacred and inward dance journey weekly on Thursday mornings.
In 2020, I held the dances online via Zoom, and people worldwide joined. As we came out of the lockdowns, I held the dances with sacred fire ceremonies, retreats, and events. We danced by the wild, rivers, sacred woods, sacred sites, and even the desert.
In 2021, I was invited to bring the dances to the festivals. I began at Oshala, and even held a soundscape journey at the Boomtown Festival. I have had the honour to both open and close Ohsala in 2024 and will be opening the festival in 2025.
In 2024, I returned to running Monthly Medicine Dances in Marlow; each one was a sell-out, alongside many Earth Grid Dance Activations online and on sacred lands.
Lusia Bradshaw (LuLuOM) and I created a collaboration project, AscenDANCE. It has been an incredible and brilliant journey, and many wild and rich adventures await us!
2025, I am now moving to a bigger venue at Lopemead Farm—Thame. We will have extra time and space for a fire ceremony and sharing wisdom. I will also be running Dances in Glastonbury and Henley – stay updated on the What’s App group and Newsletter
