At the still point of the turning world. Neither flesh nor fleshless; / Neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is, / But neither arrest nor movement. Except for the point, the still point, / There would be no dance, and there is only the dance. - T.S.Eliot, The Four Quartets

They were silent for a moment. Then, with a newborn emotion, they shook hands. - E.M.Forster, Howards End

I came out of anxiety, confusion, loss and grief. Movement provided a source of expression and solace. Writing a daily therapy. Yoga a lifeline and a way to live. Connection and community. Local and global. After a youth of dance and literature, yoga, movement and writing, brought me back to my body, my self, to my breath, to creating, and, ultimately, to living life. Together they are my greatest healers after loss.

JUDE EVANS is a movement educator, practitioner and writer based in the West Midlands, and working around the UK. Jude's purpose is to encourage students to fall in love with moving and creative expression, leading to healing themselves, communities and the wider world, ultimately making it possible to live life in the fullest way. Connecting, creating and empowering - these form the essence of her teaching and practice. Based in the West Midlands, UK, she brings her experience and knowledge to students through classes, workshops, writing and social media. Jude also teaches and shares movement, yoga and meditation in sport & athletic environments, theatre, dance and other creative settings.
Movement (in its widest sense) serves all bodies, from all backgrounds and Jude believes it's vital to recognise, acknowledge and make this possible. It's about being human after all.
Jude is currently training with Lara Heimann (Physical Therapist and RYT 500hr) in the LYT Method for Level Two (Advanced) certification and with Yoga Medicine for 500hr Yoga Teacher Training with Tiffany Cruikshank. Her varied roles have included: movement practitioner, yoga teacher, writer, movement director, choreographer, workshop leader, dance teacher, performer, deviser. She practices and espouses movement and mindfulness every day at home, in classes and in the rehearsal room. She dances and choreographs on a regular basis, relishes fun in the outdoors and is a keen runner - long distance road and multi-terrain - through which she supports the work of non-profit organisations. Jude documents her journey through work and life as @movewithjude on Instagram.
Jude teaches on a regular basis at Warwick Sport, various locations at the University of Warwick and Coventry University, as well as in other settings (please see portfolio for further information). In 2017, Jude spent a year as a teacher and co-owner of Urban Love Warrior Yoga, playing a central part of the team taking on a variety of tasks including: teaching, assisting, administration, press, marketing, web content, writing and editing & proofreading.
A writer, literary enthusiast and lover of the arts, Jude creates pieces for yoga and well-being publications, manages her own blog Little Yellow Room, reads avidly across many genres, and feeds her love and appreciation for the arts into her yoga and movement teaching and practice. She believes that together these can create a form of medicine.
She volunteers for Let's Talk About Loss - a charity which supports 18-35 year olds who have been affected by loss - which is close to her heart. She is passionate about supporting other young people navigating significant loss in their lives.
