Hips and Bits with Guest ALICA D'ARCY

Hips and Bits: Finding Joy Again with Alica D’Arcy ✨ Stories with Global Caravan Dancers and your host, Paulette Rees-Denis 💃🌎 In this beautiful new episode, Paulette connects with Alica D’Arcy from Bendigo, Australia—a dancer, teacher, community-builder, and the heart behind Solaris Dance Collective and Bendigo Tribal Fest. Alica shares how Global Caravan Dance found her at just the right time, reigniting her joy, bringing her back into her body, and reminding her that dance can be a place of connection, creativity, and renewal. Together, they talk about: ✨ Building a vibrant dance community in Central Victoria ✨ The magic of Bendigo Tribal Fest and gathering with dance family ✨ Letting the dance live in your body—not rushing the journey ✨ Finding presence, mindfulness, and joy through movement ✨ Staying a student, even as a teacher ✨ Making space for creativity and self-expression in everyday life One of the most beautiful reminders from this conversation is that dance can bring us back to ourselves—one movement, one song, one shared moment at a time. 🎥 Watch the full episode and share with us: What brings you back to joy? #HipsAndBits #GlobalCaravan #AlicaDArcy #SolarisDanceCollective #BendigoTribalFest #DanceCommunity #DanceJourney #WomenWhoDance #MovementMedicine #CreativeLiving #DanceSisterhood
