About this Event

✨ MELT Into STARS – An Embodied Communication Workshop ✨ Improve skills and practice tracking energy, connection, and consent on and off the dance floor. STARS is a simple and powerful relational framework that helps us speak the parts that are often left unspoken: Safety, Turn-ons, Avoids, Relationship Intentions/Expectations, and Sexual Health. When these conversations become embodied and intentional, chemistry deepens, consent becomes clearer, and connection becomes more nourishing and sustainable. This is not a lecture. This is a guided, experiential, community practice. We’ll explore: 💫 Safety as attunement — aligning nervous systems so intimacy can move with care. Deepen your relationship with your nervous system so that you recognize it's messages. 💫 Turn-ons & Avoids -listening to and voicing your embodied truth- the hell yes, and no. And honor the grey in between. 💫 Relationship intentions & expectations -moving from assumptions to shared reality by listening and attuning to yourself and others. 💫 Sexual health as a pathway to deeper trust and hotter connection. Talking about the uncomfortable stuff. Through movement, reflection, partnered and small-group exercises, and clear frameworks, you’ll practice bringing your relational communication into the same integrity as your dance. This workshop is for: • Fusion & ecstatic dancers • Connection-curious humans • People who want more clarity, less guessing • Anyone ready to make “the talk” feel natural, grounded, and even pleasurable What to Expect • Short teachings woven with experiential practice • Somatic and movement-based exercises • Partner and group exploration with clear consent and choice • Individual reflection and integration • A trauma-informed, inclusive, consent-centered container No partner needed. All relationship structures, identities, and experience levels welcome. Come as you are. Leave with practical tools, deeper self-awareness, and a new way to create connection in this community. 🕐 Timing 1:30 – Arrive, land, and connect 2:00 – Workshop begins (please be on time; we will build the container together) 🤝 SAFETY NEEDS: Presented by Will O'Connor @relationalecosystemsproject 🔥TURN-ONS & ⛔AVOIDS: Presented by Emerald May @rootedpleasure 🤲RELATIONSHIP Intentions/Expectations: Presented by Matthew Nelson & Evelin Dacker @bravespaceembodiment @wildwoman-wellness.com ❤️‍🔥SEXUAL HEALTH: Presented by Courtney Brame @somethingpositiveforpositivepeople ~~Breaks Woven in for Nourishment and Reset~~ 7 – Ends 8- Melt Dance Intro Class and Dance Cost MELT INTO THE STARS - FULL DAY PACKAGE - Workshop+Dance Afterparty - $55-$125 STARS Workshop Only -$30-$80 SUGGESTED
