Beaches
Adelaide’s first purpose-built event space & micro retreat for visionaries, leaders, and transformation practitioners to do their work.

Some work doesn’t fit in a meeting room, a lounge room, or a studio.
It belongs in a space that was built for it.

THE LOCATION
KUARNA YERTA
My grandfather once owned land right on the beach, but he kept the blocks a few suburbs inland, where the soil was richer, where food could grow, and where life was made by hand. At the time, it wasn’t about the decadence of a view. It was about survival.
I didn’t understand that when I was younger. But now I do.
This land, set just back from Adelaide’s western coastline, still carries that same intention. It wasn’t chosen for status, but for what it could grow, hold, and heal. Dancing Zen honours that choice.
And while this land was handed down through my own family, I also know it was never truly ours.
We are on Kaurna Yerta, the traditional lands of the Kaurna people.
To them and to the ancestors of this land I bow.
May my tending honour their tending. May this place restore what was taken.
“Dancing Zen holds you, while you hold others.”

Founder’s Note
ANCHORING
HUMANITY
I built this space because I know how hard it is to do meaningful work in shallow, unfeeling environments.
Rooms where more people means more value and smaller groups are squeezed into lounges, community spaces or uninspired corners, as if intimacy were less important than numbers.
Bigger rooms can mean less intimacy, more noise, and a thinner sense of connection.
Dancing Zen is my answer to that.
Here, facilitators can stay onsite, and take time for themselves in the space.
Whether you’re guiding others or reconnecting with yourself, this place was designed to hold you so you can hold your people.
There’s growing academic evidence across psychology, architecture, leadership, and learning design confirming what many of us already know:
Environment shapes transformation.
Environment shapes creativity.
Environment shapes leadership.
Because anchoring humanity isn’t just a hope—it’s a structure.
And it begins with how we hold space.

Dancing Zen operates under Home Activity guidelines as set by the City of Charles Sturt in Adelaide, South Australia.
Numbers are strictly limited out of respect for our neighbours and in honour of the land we’re on.
The space is regularly cleaned and energetically cleansed.
Because of the quality of people who come here, the energy held in this place remains clear, grounded, and deeply supportive of the work being done.
