Hello, my name is Crystal! From the moment I took my first steps at the age of 2, dancing and movement have played a vital role in how I express myself. Over the years, this passion has only grown stronger, and each day I dedicate myself to improving my skills while also inspiring others to embrace their own unique movements. **Join our taster session.**

Come and join a group of people who love to dance!! And know you will always be warmly welcomed. Find release on the dance floor as you move to a lively mix of dance music: Latin, Soul, House, Reggae, Afrobeats, Funk and more. The crowd is friendly and inclusive, and there is time to slow down and integrate the movement. The session ends with a meditation. Julia Franks leads the sessions. She is an experienced certified teacher of Ecstatic Awakening Dance and Open Floor movement practice. She is an author on the subject of dance and movement (Dance for Life), appears on Podcasts on this theme, and trains therapists to use embodiment in their work.

Let's read Modern Standard Arabic together and help each other. This get-together continues weekly. Please disregard attendee numbers, as most members come without registering here. There is no charge for this time together.

A regular meetup for those committed to practising and improving their Arabic. It is designed for those who know the very basics and want a structured opportunity to practise reading, listening, speaking, and building confidence. If you're still learning the very basics but want some motivation to keep going, you're very welcome to join. Note: This is a practice group facilitated by a native speaker - not a formal teacher or taught class, and not a Quran teaching session. 📚 SESSION FORMAT: ⏱️ 30 mins Intro & Social: We'll go around and introduce ourselves in Arabic. Feel free to prepare 2-3 sentences beforehand if you don't like being put on the spot! 🗣️ 60 mins Structured Practice: A focused session practising together with guidance : ◾ Taking turns reading passages aloud ◾ Listening to excerpts from an audiobook ◾ Working together to translate and understand the text 💬 Continued Socialising: Feel free to stick around afterwards for more informal chat and connection. ✊ Note: Active Muslims is equally about focusing on the actual activity, in this case, it is a practice session requiring mental engagement and active participation (and not just a social), therefore it is advised to approach and attend these events with that mindset, intention and purpose. 📍 LOCATION: Barbican ⌚ MEET: By the cafe G Level (Benugo) ⏱️ TIME: Meet from **11:00am** for intros and socialising. The practice session starts promptly at **11:30am** insha'Allah. 🎒 What to bring: 📚 Any Arabic texts you would like to read 🎧 Headphones (optional, if you prefer listening privately) ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ If you can no longer attend, please update your RSVP to free up your spot for someone on the waiting list. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ 🌐 **[@Active.Muslims](https://www.instagram.com/active.muslims)** *(Follow for latest events updates)*
