💞 WHAT TO EXPECT
Connection + Authentic Relating
Playful connection exercises designed to help us move beyond small talk and connect with curiosity, presence, and authenticity.
Movement + Embodiment Simple opportunities to get out of our heads and into our bodies through movement, mindfulness, or embodied exploration. No dance or movement experience needed.
Reflection + Sharing Space to notice what’s present and share from the heart. This may include paired or small-group exercises, journaling, or full-circle sharing.
Everything is optional. You’re always welcome to participate, modify an activity, observe, or pass.
No prior experience needed.
💜 COMMUNITY & CONSENT
This gathering welcomes women and femme-aligned/non-binary folks seeking connection and community. We welcome a diversity of identities, backgrounds, relationship styles, and life experiences.
Choice, boundaries, and consent are woven throughout our time together. You’re always encouraged to honor your own comfort level and change your mind at any time.
This is a substance-free gathering.
