The Changing Room

Lovely and safe atmosphere, very clear guiding, great session and host.

Was a brilliant evening of dancing and connection, in a safe and comforting room. Thank you 🙏

Mijn eerste CBC workshop. Vooral de laatste dans die avond met heel de groep vond ik erg leuk en speels! Anita is rustig in haar uitleg en lijkt me een warm persoon. Ik vond het een veilige plek waar iedereen ongeacht zijn of haar ervaring met (CBC) dans zichzelf kon zijn. Bedankt voor de fijne avond en veel succes Anita!

Something shifted for me in this session. I came in carrying some resistance, and by the end of it that resistance had transformed into something that felt like playfulness. I did not expect that.

The other thing that stayed with me: I received several "no" responses during one of the exercises. Nobody died. Not them, not me. That sounds simple but for me it was not. It was one of those quiet revelations that you carry home with you.

And then there was the "no" exercise itself. Discovering where my yes ends and my no begins, in my body, in real time, with another person. That is not something you can learn from a book.

From the moment I entered the space, the workshop already felt like stepping into a softer reality. There was a warm, gentle atmosphere in the room, a sense of safety and freedom at the same time. Like the outside world was still somewhere nearby, but here there was permission to slow down, breathe, feel and simply be.

This Contact Beyond Contact workshop became a much deeper experience than I expected. It was not just about dance or movement, but about meeting yourself and others through the body. About noticing where you open, where you protect yourself, where you say yes, where you say no, and how connection can become more honest when there is no need to perform.

The exercises were guided with a lot of care. We explored breath, movement, touch, boundaries, control and letting go in a way that felt both gentle and powerful. What touched me most was the balance between safety and freedom. There was space to say yes, space to say no, space to play, space to pause, and space to simply feel what was happening in the body without needing to explain it perfectly.

Anita has a very warm and trustworthy presence. She holds the group with softness, clarity and quiet strength. Because of that, I felt able to let go more than I expected and experience connection in a very honest and embodied way.

A unique, humbling and heart-opening experience. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to explore movement, connection, boundaries and authenticity in a safe and supportive space.

Very enjoyable and well facilitated

Wonderful experience, the workshop is wel gradualy build up. So we get trusted with what we are doing. Also warming up excercises is done, this is normal when we do introduction of a movement workshop. Well done Anita ! ❤️ 🔱

By now I have attended several CBC workshops and each time I discover something new about myself, not through thinking but through moving.

This session I noticed that full surrender can feel terrifying and joyful at the same time. That leading does not have to be forced. That friction can teach you as much as flow. And that what happens on the dance floor is often a surprisingly honest mirror of how you show up in life.

If you are on the fence, go. Not because it is comfortable, but because the discomfort is exactly where the learning is.

I really loved this session. Anita creates the right space to learn, experiment and connect.

Anita creates a very nice safe space. The session builts up in a way you can slow down, learn and integrate it all. Thank you for this experience.

I came to this workshop with no background in dance and a healthy dose of skepticism. What I found was something I did not expect: a safe space to practice being present, to give and receive without agenda, and to notice what happens in the body when the pressure to perform is removed.

This is not about dancing well. It is about showing up as you are. If you are on the fence, that is probably a good reason to go.

I know myself well enough to know that I often want to do things right, or perhaps more accurately, the fear of making mistakes. What I discovered is that when I can let go of that fear, mistakes transform into playfulness. It became the experience of being allowed to exist and being seen as you are.

This is something you cannot create alone. It only becomes possible in the presence of others, in a space where vulnerability feels safe. Giving and receiving only exist in connection. That is what this container offers, and that is what made last night so unexpectedly beautiful.

I should also mention: I have no connection to dance whatsoever. If you had asked me three months ago whether I would attend something like this, my answer would not have been printable. It has nothing to do with dance in the way I expected, and everything to do with something I did not expect to find.

It was such a beautiful evening connecting with myself through others without words. Feeling loved and supported by strangers through dance and music is such a special experience. Thank you, Anita!

I had a great experience with the Breathing Circle. Nice setup, a welcoming group and a very attentive, observant and caring host

Helemaal verbonden met de magie van het leven. Diepe lichamelijke en geestelijke ervaring. Erg fijn!
