Movement. Relation. Transformation.
Lean_in explores what it means to be human through movement, creativity and community.

What is Lean_in?
Lean_in is a movement community exploring what it means to be human through contemporary dance, contact improvisation, embodied practice, creativity and connection.
​
Through movement training, classes, jams, immersive gatherings, international residencies and artistic research, Lean_in creates spaces to train, connect, explore and create together.
​
From the studios of South England to the landscapes of India, Lean_in brings people together through movement — creating opportunities for curious movers, dancers, artists and practitioners to develop their practice and discover new ways of relating.

The Human Behind Lean_in
My name is Joshua Jarvis Jones.
What began as a personal exploration of movement, connection and creativity has grown into a thriving community of dancers, movers and curious humans.
Through classes, residencies, retreats and creative projects, Josh and the wider Lean_in community create opportunities for people to train, connect, immerse and create together.
Lean_in continues to evolve as a space where movement becomes a pathway into relationship, self-discovery and community.
