The Art of Dancing toward the Intimate
Meeting ourselves in the intimacy of the dance space, meeting others one to one, and meeting the whole group can open us to deeper connection. It can also, perhaps, stifle our spontaneity & freedom of expression. We are again responding to the call and deeply felt need of fellow dancers to explore this inspiring, crucial and always present theme.
Offering new ways to encounter ourselves & others through shared reflective conversation & intuitive touch centred drawing/making and giving space to simple forms of physical contact and support. Together with immersing ourselves in the map of 5Rhythms. Each rhythm connecting us to a quality of the movements of intimacy; Flowing grounds our sensuality, Staccato clarifies our boundaries, Chaos breaks open our raw and wild nature, Lyrical liberates our playfulness and in Stillness we are met by the quiet grace of our presence.
A laboratory space to draw/mark/art, dance and play - to find out who else and what else is being experienced in these dance floor connections
What do we given not give our permission to?
Is our sensuality welcome?
Can we dance with attraction?
Are we welcome when we need distance?
Will our ‘no’ be as encouraged as our ‘yes’?
…. & the many more enquiries that open up when we workshop in a mutually supportive and safe space.
A space where you will always be encouraged to go at your own pace and ability.
To experience renewal & connection to your authenticity, a stronger sense of presence and availability to yourself and others - giving you more prepared ground for navigating authentic relating on and off the dance floor.
