Everything Everywhere All At Dance

Join us in co-creating a new dance culture focused on safety, inclusivity, permission & possibilities. One that invites Fusion, Contact Improv, Ecstatic Dance, conscious dance/movement forms and Sex/Kink-Positive communities to blend & play together on one dance floor. Our intention is to create a community culture that focuses on attunement, inclusivity, and exploration, while catering to the accessibility & safety of Trans/NB/Queer, BIPOC, and differently abled communities.

We’ve secured a gorgeous 5,000 square foot dance floor in Oakland for every 1st Friday of the month. Our vision is to grow this into a weekly community place to gather, dance, play and explore together. We invite you to come and help us bring this vision to life!

Dance of Dominance & Submission Explore conscious power play through dance. Power dynamics are present all the time, kink is about making power dynamics exquisitely clear, creative, consensual, and passionate. Want to adventure into desires that are at the edge of your comfort with a compassionate and present companion? Curious about embodying your dominant energy or your submissive energy in the dance?

This workshop invites us to contribute to each others’ erotic courage, vulnerability, and playful expression so we can create more meaningful intimacy. You are free to discover and ask for what you really desire in a compassionate space that does not shame your wants. This is also an empowering space to say, “no,” strengthen your boundaries and voice them with certainty. We will learn how to create a culture of shame resilience, attune to our own eros and healthy limits, and track our partner’s experience.

You are welcome to come with a beloved with whom you desire to go deep or to come ready to make some new sensual connections. Are you ready to play?! (Knee pads are encouraged but not required as we’ll have puzzle mats.)
