Infusion enjoyed meeting up and sharing with Cambridgeshire- and Bedfordshire-based charity Baca, for movement workshops based on ‘Soothe’.
Through movement and dance, the young people enthusiastically engaged exploring concepts of emotional regulation, from adrenaline and fight and flight to soothing calm, connection and balance through partner work. They offered really creative responses and afterwards, Babak* shared, “it was amazing and good not just for your body but also for your mind.”For everyone involved it felt like a fulfilment of Baca’s mission, that the young people would be : “safe to heal, free to thrive.”

For the second time our productions have caught the eye of Ted Talk organisers (the first was 2019 with our anti-sex trafficking show at the London School of Speech and Drama). This time our latest show, Soothe (featured in the Cambridge Festival 2024, and Cambridge Junction for Refugee Week in support of Baca Charity) landed us the opportunity to present to the Ted audiences once again; this time at Tedx Kings Parade St. Our very own Holly Wilmot delivered a fantastic talk on the chemistry of emotions, how they move us and why dance is so effective in portraying the Three Systems model.
You can catch Holly’s talk here to get your introduction to the concepts and teasers for Soothe. #SootheShow
We feel pretty psyched that we’re 2 for 2 on our feature length dance performances being “ideas worth sharing!”
