The Dance Speak studio, with a glowing arch

No experience needed

Performance-free. Nothing to nail, nothing to fail.

Freedom and connection

Release what you hold

Each session moves 1 emotion through your body, from start to finish.

Leave the performance outside.

The course · 3 phases

01

Solo foundations (freestyle)

Learn to follow your body instead of correcting it. For once and for all, know how to freestyle dance at home, or on any dance floor, without awkwardness.

02

Group Power (combos)

Think Zumba meets Ecstatic Dance. Simple group combos for 1 emotion at a time. Learn the dances to shake off stress, release anger, or celebrate.

03

Dancefloor Dialogue

Learn how to connect with people on the dance floor and communicate non-verbally. Creates life-long friendships out the studio.

Inside a session

60 minutes online, 90 in person. Same shape every time.

1

Drop in.

Lights down, breath, floor.

2

A journey...

Guided freestyle, 1 instruction at a time. You follow what your body wants instead of correcting it.

3

Or a combo.

1 emotion, a few simple steps, the whole room together. The instructor names the feeling. You dance it out to release it.

Be seen.

Mirroring and witnessing, in pairs and as a group. No contact.

5

Close.

Back to the floor. Then out into your day, lighter.
