Primal Play workshop

We are excited to announce our next Primal Play workshop!

Primal Play is an embodied, non-verbal, relational movement practice for self-discovery and deeper connections. You are invited to step onto the mat and play with one or more people.

In this Primal Play workshop, we'll engage with our whole body & being, diving into our curiosity, and co-creating a space for playful exploration and genuine human connection.

Let's explore the sense of freedom, aliveness, intimacy and authentic expressions in this field of unfolding, moment to moment dynamics of playing together. Sometimes wild, sometimes soft, or slow, or energetic, quiet, every time a surprise. There is no right or wrong. There is no goal. Every dynamic new and unique, and profound.

This evening has a simple and clear design. We begin with guided body awareness exercises to ground and attune to yourself, others and the space. This way you can connect with others within your own boundaries and create a deeper connection with yourself.
Then we move on to Primal Play and from there we will end with a calming, integrating and nourishing partner meditation, the Belly2Belly.

This evening is a great opportunity to practice intimacy & authentic connection in a non-sexual way, and take the embodied experiences, insights and exercises into your own living environment.

During the workshop you will have plenty of opportunities to meet and explore with different people. No experience is required, just your presence and willingness to play in your own unique way.

Everything is an invitation, you don't have to do anything, participation in an activity, and with whom, is your free choice every time.

Let's play, learn, and grow together. We look forward to seeing you on the playground!

Together, Nick & Stefanie founded the Cuddly Community.
A transformative group aimed at generating intimacy through. emotional openness, physical connection and playful exploration, in a safe, slow and guided, non-sexual way. To reawaken our need for human connection, from animal to animal, from body to body, from heart to heart. By trusting our bodies and each other, we regain our original innocence, and remember that we are safe.
When we feel safe, we dare to take more risks, live more fully, be more adventures, feel more connected, we play and enjoy, leading to stress relief, aliveness, joy, authenticity, playfulness, deeper intimacy, and heartfelt connections.

Our core mission is to fulfill the primal need for human connection in a safe, respectful and deeply meaningful way.

Be Welcome
