Jade continued to be an active member of the Spiral Arts Collective and helped to pioneer new dance initiatives in her local area.
During the summer of 2006 Jade travelled the south west of England delivering 'green' poetry and discussing green ideas in the guise of the Green Woman beside the Green Man who is now very active in promoting awareness about the issues arising around Tara in Ireland, and has produced a CD of various artists' works to this end.
Jade also perfoms her own poetry in various venues, she practices and performs fire dance, and has experience with Egyptian and Contemporary and is always looking to take part in new projects and learn new skills.
Most recent performances include speaking her own poetry and reading some of the greats alongside the Avalonian Free State choir. Performing fire dance at Music for Africa, a weekend long event put on to raise money for childrens music in Africa. And most recently performing at Druid Camp 2008 between Damh the Bard and Seize the Day.
Since finishing her degree in Contemporary Arts at Nottingham Trent University Jade Moon has gone on to take part in and run many exciting performance projects. Her first poetry performance was at the launch of a South West England arts company, The Spiral Arts Collective. She worked along side Rehane Abrahams, award winning actress from South Africa. The pair later went on to perform together in 'Anatomy of Clouds', a site specific Butoh performance on a hill of local significance, as part of the Yeovil festival of Arts and Culture.
The project was concieved by Miss Abrahams and the performers included herself, Jade Moon and two students from the local college. The project was funded by UNLTD and reached out to many members of the community through its association with the local arts celebrations and working with students from the college.
