Body + Soul Sundays
JourneyDance + Burlesque to Dance Your Heart Open
Move your body and dance your heart open!
Body + Soul Sundays are a sweet opportunity to connect with our community in-person and explore both types of dance offerings.
Choose the class that calls you most, or make it a mini-workshop and move with us all morning!
We begin with JourneyDance, a free-form guided movement meditation designed to release shame and anxiety, calm your nervous system, expand your capacity to be with your emotions, and build Self Love.
JourneyDance is the dance that brought me home to myself after 10 years of performing on Burlesque stages and a lifetime of dance training, and is a wonderful way to get into your body and move just for the fun and feeling of it.
This isn't about steps or how you look to anyone else, this is about connecting with how you feel and accepting that all of it is OK!
Following a short break, we move into a BodyMagick Burlesque class to explore delicious, sensual movement and strut into our most glittering manifestations -- shining our light for all, but most importantly for ourselves.
Classes are taught by High Priestess of Tease Eva D'Luscious, local and traveling guest instructors.
Sunday, May 5, is all about slow, delicious movements and energy to draw your audience in and melt them.
High Priestess Eva D'Luscious will break down the body mechanics of ooey, gooey, slithery moves, share tricks for holding and fill space and trach you how to stun your audiences with stillness.
Bring gloves to play with, and dance heels if you have them. We'll have extra gloves and boas on hand to loan.
Dance heels should be low enough to keep you safe and high enough to feel good, and have a smooth bottom to facilitate movement. Regular shoes with grippy bottoms may cause injury. Bare feet are sexy and welcome too!
Adjustments and modifications can be given for mobility and experience levels. Please contact us if you have any questions or desire modifications and we'll do our best to work with you!
All skill levels, backgrounds and gender identities are welcome in our classes to celebrate their sensuality, power and joy!
This is your protected space for all parts of yourself to be heard and welcomed. Moving Limiting Beliefs out of your body, tuning into messages that it's time to rest, set boundaries or celebrate wildly, exploring new movement and expression to live in power, pleasure, joy and resilience -- Let's Dance!

My students nicknamed me the Godmother of Glitter for her helping them reveal their sparkly selves through BodyMagick Burlesque classes and guided dance meditations.
