Intro to Play with Power & Gender through Dance (Seb)

Do you love connecting on the dance floor?

Are you interested in Dominance & submission as a spiritual path?

Do you want to learn & practice presence skills in community?

Are you interested in heart-centered liberation?

If your heart lights up reading these... come join us for the intro to see if the 3 month immersion is for you! This will be our 5th cohort as we grow incredible community in the larger bay area.

The intro includes:

• the story of how I came to create this (ballet as my intro to kink)
• a devotional performance ritual
• guided consensual dance duets to explore the archetypes of the Dom & sub
• Q&A about the 3 month immersion (Play level 1)

We ask everyone to rapid covid test right before coming & to show your test when you arrive.
