Decide to Dance
Dancing Freedom is a moving meditation. It's a gift of time to drop into our bodies and release the tension and dis-ease our daily lives store in our being. The beautiful thing about this dance is that you can't get it wrong. In the dance, we follow the Dancing Freedom protocol over a 90 minute period, which involves an opening and closing circle, and in between we dance an elemental wave - Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether

HIgh Tea Fundraiser
Get ready for the 2024 Women Illawarra Fundraising event - a Whimsical High Tea on Saturday the 18th May from 11am - 3pm in the beautiful VUE Room at The Nineteenth.
This event marks the 45th Anniversary of Women Illawarra and falls on the 39th Anniversary of the purchase of our current premises, situated opposite the Wollongong Golf Club at 170 Corrimal Street.
Join us as we celebrate the Legacy of our founding sisters, the resistance, advocacy and enduring spirit of the feminist movement; and the impact that we will continue to have in the Illawarra for the next 45 years.
All monies raised will go towards our building fund, supporting our efforts to rebuild the Women's Centre into a trauma informed, multi-functional facility that meets the needs of the diverse women we support in the Illawarra.
Inspired by the Mad Hatter's Tea Party in Alice in Wonderland, this is a joyful occasion so bring your smiles and get ready for an event filled with fun, laughter, connection and hope.
Tickets include a glass of champagne on arrival, a selection of hot and cold high tea foods, tea & coffee and some lighthearted entertainment.
There will be a raffle on the day, a lucky door prize and a prize for the "Best Dressed" on the day.
Can't make the date? You can always pay it forward and purchase a ticket for someone else!
We are really looking forward to celebrating this milestone with you all.
