Bringing your Dancing Self into Relationship

Picture

—creating a field of safety for practicing self-connection, while simultaneously connecting with others--
AN ONLINE FREE-STYLE DANCE EXPERIENCE

YES YOU CAN have very engaged dancing
EVEN THROUGH your screen !

This is a 'free-style' movement space.
You do not need to consider yourself a 'dancer' to join us.
We move however we want, in whatever way feels best to us;
Influenced by the beats, the rooms we are in, the emotional spaces we are in,
and the resonance we feel with the others in the dance.


▪ connect to your body, the music, your groove
▪ witness others dancing
▪ be witnessed by others as you dance
▪ connect and resonate with others through movement, gestures, emotions and words

I actively invite and engage others verbally so that all feel seen and connected with. 
I frequently 'spotlight 'dancers (with consent) so that we can all simultaneously dance with one person. 


Some things to expect:
  • A small group of people dancing together, online, for 30 minutes to fun, engaging music
  • Permission to come as you are, move how you wish, show or not show your video
  • Diminishing self-consciousness and increasing comfort with embodied self-expression
  • Greater ease and familiarity with online dancing each time you show up
  • Developing deeper relational skills, both through movement and verbally 
  • Increasing joy and pleasure from 
    • moving freely and spontaneously however you want
    • being noticed and seen
    • belonging
    • being engaged and met 
    • heartful sharing
    • emotionally connecting and bonding 
    • enjoying being part of a 'family'
    • some light verbal facilitation
    • freedom to leave the dance event anytime
