PAST EVENTS

Since Resonate’s official ‘birth’ in 2024, we have held Events with the intention of sharing joy and music, creating connectedness, gathering people, encouraging healing, inspiring expansive conversation, and creating uplifting, soulful experiences.

Events have included Café takeovers with our Conscious Bar, Musicians, and DJ, Healing Areas at local Festivals, Dances, Gatherings, Markets, Healing Events, Conversations, and Pop-Up Meditations.

THE (VERY FIRST) RESONATE STAGE

July 2026

We were given the wonderful opportunity to create our first Festival Stage by Love Belper for the Love Belper Festival, as part of the Strutt Street Party, organised by Resonate, a collaboration of the Cafes on the Street with the Resonate Stage.

This was an epic project and undertaking, and we put together a thoughtfully programmed line-up of high-quality music acts, with Creative Peaks on the Sound, and a brilliant production team that built our stage structure!

We also introduced the very first Resonation Transformation Station with Festival Face Glitter & Hair Braiding!

The Cafes made & served food outside and filled the Street with tables, the Resonate Stage was constructed, and an exquisite day ensued.

The Streets were packed, there were crowds dancing around the stage, every act was on-time, the sound system and the sound technicians were high-calibre, and we are extremely pleased with the outcome of the event.

The intention of the collaboration with the Cafes was to draw people down Strutt Street and boost their footfall, and every Café had a record-breaking day. Mission Success!

THE CONSCIOUS DANCE CAMPOUT

July 2026

‘The Land’ in Little Eaton approached us, and asked if we’d like to be part of the Conscious Dance campout; a 3 day retreat revolving around ecstatic dance.

We were honoured to be asked!

Martin lead a dance journey, held in a beautiful yurt, informed by many years as a DJ, and more recently by the practice of ecstatic dance. He shared a range of rhythms and textures, from ambient and ethereal to high-energy, earthy beats.

Angela was on the mic, opening the dance by tuning everyone into the Heart through the voice, and a Heart Opening Meditation that lead into movement and dance, offering prompts on the mic throughout, and some Live Instrumentation.

BELPER GOES GREEN #2

June 2026

We were once again recruited for the Belper Goes Green Wellbeing Area!

We kept it super simple this time, aiming for flow, simplicity, high quality offerings, and ease.

We had a schedule of;

Hatha Yoga, Drum Journey, Kundalini Yoga, Animal Flow Yoga, and Heart Opening Cacao Ceremony.

Alongside this,

We had Hayley from Wild Willows Forest School running Nature Printing Sessions, a Community Canvas for collaborative Painting, and Tapestry Weaving by Ola from Fleet Arts.

THE RESONATE SOCIAL #2

April 2026

After a rest from August 2025, we emerged in April 2026 for another Resonate Social; an invitation to come together, dance, sing, socialise, and emerge from the long and cold Winter.

We added some new cocktails to our Conscious Bar; a selection of physiologically altering drinks that are alcohol-free.

This time, we welcomed Reggae Music Band Frank Hunter and the Soul Rebels to the stage!

The Birth of the Resonation Appreciation Station!

May 2024

One night, we were chatting in the kitchen, the conversation surrounding meditation altars, and altars created in Spiritual spaces, and different words for ‘altar’. The conversation spiralled into ‘Appreciation Stations’, which became the Resonation Appreciation Station, which became an installation, 48 hours later, on one of the busiest days in Belper Town; the Belper Arts Trail.

The invitation is to write something you’re grateful for on a ribbon, and tie the ribbon to a branch or tree, creating feelings of gratitude in the person, and a field of gratitude at the station itself.

Since then, the Appreciation Station is a consistent feature at every single one of our events, and we have kept every single ribbon!

Two smiling people, a woman and a man, standing outdoors next to a tree decorated with ribbon and a sign that reads, "Pause, Take a deep breath, What are you grateful for in this moment?". The woman is wearing a colorful, patterned top with jewelry, and the man is wearing a floral jacket with a hat. There is a sign with large, stylized writing that says 'Resurrection' at the bottom of the image.

THE DANCE OF LIFE

March 2024

Using Glennie Kindreds Sacred Celebrations Book, we created a Dance Event to celebrate the Spring Equinox, 2024.

Using tree branches and fairy lights, we created a woodland-esque space, with a beautiful altar honouring the coming of Spring, and enjoyed an epic Dance Journey, with Heart Opening Breathwork, Meditation with Instruments, and a Seed Planting!
