Step into Kreta Ayer, the cultural heart of Chinatown, where heritage shophouses and stories of old Singapore line every street.

Move To Regulate- Dance Movement Therapy Workshop for Nervous System Reset
In a world where stress, overwhelm, disconnection, and constant stimulation have become common, many of us are moving through life without truly listening to what the body is holding.
**Move to Regulate** is a therapeutic dance & body-based healing workshop designed to help participants slow down, reconnect with themselves, and explore nervous system regulation through movement, dance, rhythm, grounding, and embodied awareness practices.
Drawing from **Dance Movement Therapy** principles, somatic approaches, nervous system education, grounding techniques, and body awareness work under the specially formulated R.I.M Integrated Dance Wellness Method- this workshop invites participants to understand how stress and emotions can live within the body and how movement can become a pathway toward release, regulation, expression, and connection.
Through specially designed stress release and body awareness sequences, participants will be guided into noticing sensations, patterns, breath, posture, rhythm, tension, activation, and ease within the body. The workshop will also include somatic and vagal toning exercises that support grounding, safety, co-regulation, and nervous system awareness.
Participants will explore different nervous system states through movement and experiential activities while learning how the body responds to stress, shutdown, overwhelm, safety, connection, and regulation.
**Date:** 13th June 2026
**Time:** 5:00 PM – 6:30 PM
**Venue:** Bolly Dancing Studio, #01-12 Waterloo Centre, 180261
**Fees:** $25 SGD
**The session will include:**
• Specially designed stress release and body awareness sequences under the R.I.M Integrated Dance Wellness Method
• Somatic and vagal toning exercises
• Nervous system informed movement explorations
• Guided expressive movement and therapeutic dance practices
• Grounding and regulation techniques
• Breath, rhythm, sound, and sensory awareness practices
• Co-regulation and group-based movement activities
• Reflection, creativity, and embodied self-expression
• Space for emotional release, connection, and self-awareness
*This is not a dance class focused on performance or technique. The emphasis is on using movement as a tool for awareness, expression, healing, and nervous system support.*
No prior dance experience is required. All bodies and movement backgrounds are welcome.
Please wear comfortable clothing you can move in freely.
As this is an intimate group experience, spaces are limited to allow for depth, safety and personal attention.
-Suitable for beginners
\- No prior dance experience required
If you’ve been feeling the nudge, this might be the moment to say yes.
Come as you are. Move as you feel.

Katong Park to Kallang Wave 🏰👨🔬🌳🛶🌅
Ever walked through a quiet park only to realise you’re standing above a buried British fort—one that’s currently undergoing upgrading and quietly hidden from view? Or passed by a historic bungalow that commemorates Albert Einstein’s visit to Singapore, marking his meeting with a Jewish philanthropist that helped shape the future of higher education?
This evening journey begins in a tranquil seaside park where history lies just beneath our feet—though parts of the original fort site are currently closed for enhancement works, we’ll still pass through the area via open paths. From there, we ease into a breezy coastal stretch framed by open skies. As the sun dips, we follow the waterfront along a peaceful bay—often alive with kayaks, dragon boats, and the rhythmic splash of paddles from a nearby water sporting arena.
This is a free community walk, led by volunteers who enjoy the Great Outdoors (GO) and would like to share them with u too! 🤎✌️😃
The route is about 6-8km. Kindly RSVP responsibly to give others a chance to join. The 'going' list may not necessarily follow a strict sequence. 🔄 To protect your privacy, we do not collect telephone numbers 📵. Communication will be through the Event Chat. Kindly check for any updates, especially on the day of the event. The route may be amended or the hike postponed in the event of inclement weather, for the safety of our walkers. 🚶🚶♂️
\*Disclaimer: By joining this walk, you assume responsibility for your own safety and well-being 🚸, and will not hold the organizers/hosts liable for any loss or injury or other unforeseen events, ensuring a shared commitment to a safe and enjoyable experience for all. 😊 Thank you. 🙏

In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them.
Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "by chance".
Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you.
The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life.
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there.
This group is created by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.
