June Watts

June's particular focus is the relationship of the human with the natural world, and the re-awakening to the sentient beings of the Earth — the devas, angels, fairies — and how to work in harmony with them. She journeys consciously with the cycle of the seasons and the eight festivals of the year. Whatever the occasion — be it a danceshop, or a regular evening group, the dancing will always have this awareness — of the cycles of the Earth, Moon and Sun, and of the world of Faerie
