WELCOME . . . 

You're invited to this 
 2 month group journey to 
discovering your
intimus.
​
A journey of our  inmost familiarity so that we show up to our relationships and the dance of life with art and precision. 

Through contact improvisation paired with psychosomatic tools,
as well as aquatic explorations in womb-like waters,  we begin to 
develop skills to authentically and intentionally  interact with the world around us. 

We gather to: 
Unburden ourselves from armor in slow and kind ways, 
dance with each other in new and exciting ways,
&
of course,
open  our nervous system to a deeper sense of 
Belonging & Well Being
​while in relationship with each other.

Tools We Use: 

​🏹  Attachment Theory & Practice
🏹 Contact Improvisation Dance
🏹 Aquatic Rebirth Work 
🏹 Psycho-Somatic Technologies
🏹 Creative Art Therapies 
🏹 Heart Intelligence & Consent Culture
