Get on and Shine with Holly Honeychurch

30 Days of Dancing #5 I’ve got just enough energy to write this post tonight but it doesn’t matter because I’ve danced more steps in five days than I have in five weeks and I also discovered I can belly dance sitting down! Very happy to say hi to my core muscles again woohoo!

Veracocha - Carte Blanche is one of the best early trance tunes from 1999. I’ve just been reading what people wrote in the comments after hearing it for the first time - stop dead, cry, or completely lose their shit - were some of the responses. I was one of the emotional ones.

I have a notebook near me as I dance. It’s a great way of scribbling ideas down to reflect on. Yesterday I didn’t write any words but I did start drawing hearts all over my page. It reminded me how I used to draw hearts all the time. And make heart art too. I love hearts. ♥️

This set is the piéce de resistance of trance music. Cold Blue knows how to make proper trance happen. Amazing timing and build ups, ethereal melodies, angelic arias and an orchestra in the sky. I’m totally in love with his style. Here for the video and here for audio only. ❤️ 🌝

30 Days of Dancing #4 It’s full moon tonight. I feel emotional shifts at times during the lunar cycle and believe that setting intentions at full moon can be beneficial and magical. So tonight I’m carrying on my dance in the full moon light. Flying high. Welcoming in strength.

It’s funny to think of djs dj-ing in their kitchens after playing in so many uber clubs to adoring crowds. It’s a whole new experience for them and I appreciate their effort. Thank you! And welcome to 2020! I love Bryan Kearney and am just getting back into him again. He’s really humble and let’s the music speak for itself. He’s got loads of sets available on his Soundcloud channel and here he is on Youtube which is what I’m currently listening to. Want some music to work to? This is it (if you can stop you’re hands from reaching up to the sky every five seconds you might even be able to type something hahaha).

This is a beautiful trance tune - Coming Home

30 Days of Dancing #3 Pretty much spent the whole afternoon raving in the kitchen to ethereal trance sets, made dinner, now carrying on again for a second round. Come on! Let’s dance! 💃🕺🥳🎵💗👩🏼‍🎤🧑‍🎤Trance is such an uplifting genre. I love connecting with the tunes 🙌🏽

Super duper trance music to work/dance/pump to. Alex knows how to take you into space. Youtube Premium is essential for this set. The idea of it being broken up by ads is truly upsetting : ) Alex M.O.R.P.H Tomorrowland 2019. Follow the White Rabbit is a fab penultimate track.

30 Days of Dancing #2 I danced til I couldn’t dance no more and listened to an eclectic mix of old trance songs. I went right back to the beginning, Holly as a wee teenager, starting to discover what music moved her. Like Set You Free and this epic by Delerium. Happy now : )

30 Days of Dancing #1 I literally loved it! Two hours of a DnB set by Andromedik and I’ve definitely got my bounce back. Got some weights out too. Lots of awesome tunes. Literally in heaven with beats and melodies. My body is welcoming me again to experience how cool it can be : )

Spot the scaffolders.

Ok, here it comes….the third installment of 30 Days of Dance. A challenge seeing me dancing at least 30 mins every day. Like properly shaking my booty around the house. A challenge to remind me just how good it is to move my body. #1 starts tonight. Woohoo! Bring on the tunes!

Post dance smile. It’s been a while since I bounced round the kitchen. Today was the day to rectify that. With a very good dnb set blasting though my headphones and a little cbd oil to help my body relax, I had a rather good sesh. Feeling grateful for movement and bounciness. Yay!

Bouncing round the supermarket to this. So good. Woo! 💃

Three adorable moments.

I love Zola Blood. Haunting melodies, soulful voices, funky, retro, fresh beats and synths. Brilliant.

West End, Glasgow. I love the lights and the calmness of the night. Saves dodging between people too.

Getting into boozy chocolate this year. Feels like a real adventure in each mouthful.

I have a serious problem with these Polish delicacies. They’re a bit like Jaffa cakes but much more decadent with a fruity, tart cherry centre, sponge base and a thick dark chocolate top which cracks delightfully when bitten into. Heaven in my mouth and a great price too. 😁😉🤩

Love this song. Amazing album too. Highly recommend giving it a listen. ⭐️

Savouring each barrel of yumminess. I had ‘au lait’ today. Mmmmmm.

Fancy an uplifting grind? (and a bit of bouncing?) This is what I’m listening to and it’s doing the job nicely.

I got a bit angsty in the supermarket this afternoon. Everyone seemed to want me out the way and my phone had no signal so my usual escape into a dnb set didn’t happen. I took a moment to breathe then this song came on the supermarket radio and everything started to feel fine. 😃

A golf tournament, some fried plantain with a touch of himalaya salt and maple syrup, a mug of coffee. Now that’s a fine breakfast.
