Over dit evenement
MICRODOSING DANCE RITUAL - EMBODIED CONNECTION - CONSCIOUS
DATING
Do you long for a Valentine’s evening that goes beyond words and concepts, and invites you into real presence and connection?
Would you like to soften into your body, awaken your senses, and explore
your inner aliveness in a safe and conscious way?
Are you curious about relating from self-love, authenticity, and embodied
awareness?
For this Valentine’s edition, we invite you into a gentle dance ritual focused on connection, sensuality, and conscious presence. Inspired by global celebrations of love, this evening offers space to meet yourself and others from a deeper, more embodied place.
Whether you come with a long-term partner, a new love, a first date, or
on your own, you are welcome as you are. This experience is as much about meeting yourself, as it is about meeting others.
Iskra will guide embodiment and connection practices from her Embody
Peace dance practice and her Temple Arts approach, inviting awareness, softness, and authenticity in movement and relating. These exercises are simple, accessible, and always invitational, allowing each participant to choose their own level of
engagement.
A ritual atmosphere will be created to support stepping out of daily life
and into a space of presence and sacred attention. The focus is not on performance or achievement, but on feeling, deep listening, and allowing what
wants to emerge.
A microdose of magic truffles is offered in a safe and intentional setting to gently support the journey. The effects are subtle and mainly felt in the body, such as relaxation, heightened sensitivity, and openness to music and movement. Participation is optional and always your own choice.
The evening flows into an Dance journey, musically guided by DJ Samaya with a special sensual selection of downtempo and deep, immersive beats, inviting you
into connection, flow, and embodied expression.
Practical information
This ceremony combines microdosing, guided embodiment practices, and
Ecstatic Dance. After a short introduction, participants are invited to take a microdose of magic truffles in a ceremonial and supportive setting. It takes approximately 30 minutes for a microdose to be felt. During this time, we will explore breathing, grounding, and gentle physical exercises to prepare the body and nervous system.
The practice then unfolds into guided movement and dance, gradually flowing into a Sensual Ecstatic Dance space.
All practices are fully clothed, consent-based, and invitational. There is no
obligation to pair up, touch, or engage in any specific way.
No prior experience with dance, embodiment, or microdosing is required.
