Ask yourself first, and then any other person before engaging closely with others. Receive a clear 'yes' before entering into their physical sphere on or off the dance floor. This can be done with body language/gestures or an ask. Practicing healthy boundaries allows for more openness and deeper experiences. Understand that everybody dancing is having a unique experience and may not wish to engage with others. • Keep phones off the dance floor. • Please keep talking off the dance floor - unless it regards to safety, consent, and boundary. This really helps us go deep! Feel free to hang and chat in the lounge area. • Organizers take brief iPhone vids to encapsulate the sweet memories & sometimes for promo use. Please let us know if you prefer to not be filmed. ~ ~ ~ We look forward to having you 🪩⚡️🤍
