WHY DO YOU NEED THIS WORKSHOP?
Dance is the language of the Soul and can be a deeply moving, therapeutic and even spiritual experience. However, in our society, most of us feel many restraints into letting loose into Dance without the use of drugs and alcohol. Yet, these substances can and do lead to many unwanted, unsafe connections and events unfolding.
Conscious Dance spaces have surfaced from a desire to provide space to allow people to do what they love – dance – without the unwanted stuff they don’t want. These spaces can provide a happy medium where one can drop into a more spiritual, yogic type environment.
The question is: How do you step into one of these dance floors, get past the voices in your head about how ridiculous you look to let loose – and feel safe doing so at the same time?
The Answer: Body Language 101 for Conscious Dance
In this fun, interactive and well-designed course, you will learn all about what you might expect to find in a Conscious Dance setting, how you can best keep yourself safe while finding ways to let go and have fun. You will learn ways to start getting into a “dance mindset”, how to safely and appropriately connect with others as well as how to say “No” and be heard.
Finally – you can enjoy Dancing in the way it was always meant to be enjoyed!
As a bonus after completing this course, you will also be able to take the tools and tips into any bar, club or other social situation to improve your ability to connect - and/or keep yourself safe.
