-- About the Workshop --Journey with A’lan in a 2-hour workshop that promises to be as enlightening as it is entertaining, as we take a deeply connected dive into enhancing your dance experience through the exploration of the art of close embrace & sensuality. Our focus on embodied centering and grounding will help you be present with a dance partner and create a powerful dance experience that goes beyond just physical touch. Whether you’re new to dancing or have been enjoying ecstatic and/or partner dancing for some time, you’ll experience moments of playfulness and passion that will ignite your spirit and leave you invigorated.
-- Schedule --This workshop is designed to deepen your understanding and experience of a magical bridge between dance, spirituality, and sensuality, and is divided into two enriching parts:
Part 1: The Art of Embrace (60 minutes) - a comprehensive lesson focusing on building a fluid, close embrace frame through presence, polarity, and flow.
Part 2: Practice Moves (60 minutes) - We will do a deep dive into a movement chain to ground your new skills and breathe life into existing dance patterns.
By the end of this workshop, you’ll be able to transform your dance into a deeply connected, electrifying experience.
