Feminine Power

**A 3-part embodied dance journey for women** Part 1: 11.01.2026 Part 2: 08.03.2026 Part 3: 12.04.2026 **WORKSHOP 2 – SPINE (Spine Fluidity – Moving with Life)** Donation based \| Only for women \| 08\.03\.2026 \| 14:30 – 17:00 \| MahaYoga Zentrum Building on the essence of **Devadasi – The Sacred Art of Temple Dance**, this series invites you into a deeper, guided exploration of your feminine body. Over three workshops, we journey through **hips, spine, and heart** – key gateways of feminine energy, sensuality, emotional flow, and presence. Each session stands on its own and together they form a coherent path of embodiment, soft activation, and inner awakening. This series is for women who long to: * feel more alive and at home in their bodies * reconnect with sensuality and softness * move beyond the mind and into felt experience * explore feminine energy in a grounded, respectful way * time to meet and share in a circle of women This is a **safe, welcoming space** for all women – all ages, all body types. Wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move freely and feel beautiful. Come as you are, leave feeling **soft, alive, and deeply connected** to your feminine essence. **About Workshop 2** The spine is the central axis of the body – a living pathway for movement, expression, and inner vitality. In this special **International Women’s Day** workshop, we explore fluid, wave-like movements that awaken flexibility, vitality, and softness along the spine. Through slow, continuous sequences inspired by natural rhythms, we gently mobilize the back, shoulders, and entire body. The movements are circular, serpentine, and grounded – encouraging the spine to move freely and the body to reconnect with its natural flow. This session supports you in: * releasing stiffness and control * improving mobility and coordination in a gentle way * reconnecting with sensual, natural movement You are invited to move at your own pace, listening to your body and allowing sensation to guide you. There is no choreography to perform and nothing to get right – only an exploration of how your body wants to move when given time and space. The workshop concludes with a **Full Yogic Relaxation**, allowing the nervous system to settle and the experience to integrate deeply. This is an invitation to move with life rather than against it – softly, fluidly, and with awareness. **Address** Deutsche Akademie für traditionelles Yoga e. V. MahaYoga Zentrum Brunnenstr. 147 10115 Berlin (Directly at underground station U Bernauer Str. U8 [elevator exit])

Come back home to your body and your sensuality, stepping into delicious self-expression. No performance, just dancing for your own pleasure. Explore, embody and express your sensuality from a place of self-love and discover what you need to drop in more fully. It's not about looking a certain way or moving a certain way- it's about you feeling comfortable in your skin and celebrating your aliveness, your beauty, your radiance - and allowing yourself to be witnessed as this alive, beautiful, radiant being As women we often feel unsafe in our sensual and sexual expression. Afraid that it might be seen as an invitation or that it will be used against us. The truth is that when a woman is connected to these parts of herself, she is immensely powerful. When you think of a lap dance, you might think of a strip club where men seem to have the power and women are dancing for their pleasure. **This workshop aims to redefine the dynamics of a lap dance** where the dancer dances for his or her own pleasure while the receiver holds space for their process. Together we explore the qualities that support or diminish your sensual expression. The goal is not to seduce the receiver - though whenever you are fully dropped in, this becomes inevitable. **This is a Tantra inspired event.** The dynamics of a lap dance offer a perfect representation of the eternal love story between Shiva (divine masculine) and Shakti (the divine feminine). In this workshop we will play with masculine and feminine energy - exploring their qualities and how they interact and fuel one another. You’ll be invited to embody both. This is not a dance class where you learn steps. You are always invited to follow your own flow, exploring your unique expression. **Become a more fully and expressed version of yourself and discover yourself through the art of lap dance.** **What to expect** * Introduction & sharing * Warm up exercises to connect with the group, to land in your body and to gradually prepare you for the lapdance * Playful boundary exercise * Exploration of feminine and masculine qualities * Lap dance experience * Reflection on what supports and diminishes your sensual expression **Program (subjective to change)** 15.00 - 16.00 Introduction & sharing 16.00 - 16.30 warm up & connection 16.30 - 17.00 embodiment practice 17.00 - 17.15 playful boundary setting practice 17.15 - 17.30 short break 17.30 - 18.15 exploring masculine and feminine qualities 18.15 - 18.45 lap dance practice 18.45 - 19.00 closing circle **What to bring** * Wear anything that you feel comfortable, sensual and confident in; maybe something that feels nice on your skin, something that allows you ro move easily, or- it can also be something sexy. If you are unsure what to wear, you can simply bring the outfit you are unsure of and slip into it whenever it feels right. * Water bottle * Journal (optional) **Testimonials** *I highly recommend going to Sophie’s offering Conscious Lap Dance. It was almost like a beautiful women’s circle plus expressing and connecting to ourselves and other women through the art of dance. I learned so much about space holding and taking space in the most beautiful mutual and safe way. I got to experience how dancing staying connected with myself can feel. Very empowering :)* **\- Maria L** *Sophie facilitates her events with passion, presence and so much integrity. I felt really seen and safe in the lap dance event and did connect with my inner goddess and playful spirit. Also my fears in the beginning were welcome and I could integrate some wounded parts within me. Every exercise is really an invitation to get to know yourself and your pleasure better while being able to connect in small steps with other participants.* **\- Sophia Lara** **Tickets** 45€ per person [purchase your ticket here](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=lapdance) [ ](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets) [ ](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets)**Location:** Praxis Köpi Köpenicker Straße 175 **Please take note:** This event takes place at a beautiful studio located on the 5th floor.

Hey lovely humans! ✨ We're gathering for an afternoon dedicated to the most important relationship you'll ever have: the one with yourself. This workshop is about pausing, tuning in, and remembering what makes you, you. Through gentle reflection, creative expression, and a room full of women lifting each other up – we'll create space to reconnect with ourselves in a way that actually stays with us. We'll start by setting intentions for what you need, then move through a mix of embodiment exercises, a creative activity (self-love collage), and a simple closing ritual to help you feel more grounded and connected to yourself. No prep needed. No "right way" to do it. Just you, showing up for yourself. **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls.

Women's Yoga is a gentle, nourishing practice designed to support the health of the female body. The classes follow a cycle-aware approach, honoring the natural changes in hormones, energy levels, and emotional states throughout the month. Each session begins with a short guided meditation to settle the mind, followed by a soft, flowing yoga practice and a deeply relaxing closing rest. The movements and postures are carefully chosen to support the female organs, pelvic floor, hips, and lower body, helping to create balance, strength, and ease. This practice is intuitive and permission-based. You're invited to move at your own rhythm, in tune with your cycle and how you feel on the day. Breathwork plays an important role, supporting the nervous system and hormonal balance. Women's Yoga offers a space to slow down, reconnect with your body, and build a deeper sense of awareness, acceptance, and trust in your natural cycles. Come as you are. Bring your own mat or use one of ours. Please arrive 10 minutes early to settle in. The door will be closed once class begins, and late entry will not be possible.

**Our March pick is *God of the Woods* by Liz Moore.** **This month’s novel is an award-winning literary mystery that blends family drama with psychological suspense. It explores women’s voices and relationships while delivering an exciting, eerie, and deeply suspenseful story. The book is 576 pages in print or 14 hours and 35 minutes on audiobook.** Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn’t just any thirteen-year-old: she’s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region’s residents. And this isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara’s older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found. As a panicked search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Chasing down the layered secrets of the Van Laar family and the blue-collar community working in its shadow, Moore’s multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances. It is Liz Moore’s most ambitious and wide-reaching novel yet.

Come join us for coffee at Matari Coffee to discuss our March book, "The Enchanted Greenhouse"! Book description: Terlu Perna broke the law because she was lonely. She cast a spell and created a magically sentient spider plant. As punishment, she was turned into a wooden statue and tucked away into an alcove in the North Reading Room of the Great Library of Alyssium. This should have been the end of her story . . . Yet one day, Terlu wakes in the cold of winter on a nearly-deserted island full of hundreds of magical greenhouses. She’s starving and freezing, and the only other human on the island is a grumpy gardener. To her surprise, he offers Terlu a place to sleep, clean clothes, and freshly baked honey cakes—at least until she’s ready to sail home. But Terlu can’t return home and doesn’t want to—the greenhouses are a dream come true, each more wondrous than the next. When she learns that the magic that sustains them is failing—causing the death of everything within them—Terlu knows she must help. Even if that means breaking the law again. This time, though, she isn’t alone. Assisted by the gardener and a sentient rose, Terlu must unravel the secrets of a long-dead sorcerer if she wants to save the island—and have a fresh chance at happiness and love.

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.

This, her mother has told her, is the only way to get a "louding voice" -- the ability to speak for herself and decide her own future. But instead, Adunni's father sells her to be the third wife of a local man who is eager for her to bear him a son and heir. When Adunni runs away to the city, hoping to make a better life, she finds that the only other option before her is servitude to a wealthy family. As a yielding daughter, a subservient wife, and a powerless slave, Adunni is told, by words and deeds, that she is nothing. But while misfortunes might muffle her voice for a time, they cannot mute it. And when she realizes that she must stand up not only for herself, but for other girls, for the ones who came before her and were lost, and for the next girls, who will inevitably follow, she finds the resolve to speak, however she can--in a whisper, in song, in broken English--until she is heard
