Our inner child can provide endless amounts of energy when it is free to play. It can also be shut down through common routines and neglect. 

Take a moment to listen to your inner child. Allow it to have a clear and powerful channel through your dance. Give your inner child the space to be free and expressive without judgement. 

From observing children, we can learn to be spontaneous, intuitive, honest and in the moment.

In this event you are invited to look for your inner child, and bring them out to dance.

Jasper Rae is a singer songwriter who is striving to make her mark on the world. Based in Adelaide, she has been putting herself into the public realm for the last 6 years of a 25 year long musical journey. Predominantly performing in the folk style, her simple chords combined with profound lyrics tend to invoke a gentle, yet powerful experience for her listeners

Through her awareness that every single human experiences the same emotions (just with different experiences attached to them), she taps into the root of those emotions and weaves frequencies that promise to tug on your heart strings. Her goal is to build a deep sense of connection and community with her audience, through making herself vulnerable and telling her story in an authentic way. Always with the goal in mind of creating a safe space for people to feel their feelings and move forwards on the path of healing.

Having found inspiration in the likes of Missy Higgins, Glen Hansard, Nahko, Paul Isaac and many more, Jasper promises an eclectic display of music that she hopes will leave you thinking about life in a new way.

Jaspers reason for being alive
Is to spread her music far and wide
And help to open peoples minds
To unlock what they hide inside
