Embodied Dating Berlin 🎄Christmas Special ✨
Move. Touch. Listen.
Breathe. Share. Play.
...And melt into heartspace this Christmas! ❄️ ❤️
“Thank you so much for creating a space in which such well-aligned people could come together. I can't think of the last time I met so many wonderful, open-minded people in one go like that. It was a real pleasure” – Johann
Tired of the superficial swipe? Seeking more embodied connections with like-minded souls?
Here's your chance to take a break from the apps and the small talk, arrive fully into yourself and connect playfully & authentically with others. Join us for a Christmas Special this Solstice and spark a new flame or two to keep your spirits warm through the winter. 🎄🔥
Embodied Dating is an immersive evening experience where you'll move fluidly between conversation, movement and touch. Come spark a new connection or two (romantic or platonic), and walk away with skills you can take into every relationship.
This event welcomes all men, women & non-binary people aged 18+, both monogamous & non-monogamous. This event is aimed for hetero and bisexual identifying people.
What will actually happen? 🥰
You'll be invited to explore a series of unique interactions, carefully guided to help you connect through your body, and meet others with genuine curiosity and openness.
Activities will weave together:
✨ Authentic Relating - heart-centred conversation through radical honesty and active listening, drawing you into presence and embodied awareness
✨ Intuitive Movement - surrendering into somatic flow, letting your body lead the way
✨ Conscious Touch - exploring the many dimensions of co-regulating touch in full awareness and respect to your desires and boundaries.
💨 We will begin the evening with a grounding breathwork practice to help you land.
👯♂️ Some pairings are randomised, some you can choose for yourself.
😎 Blindfolds may be used in certain activities to deepen your connection with your physical sensations and inner world.
✅ Consent is central throughout the evening. You will always have the agency to choose how deep you go, and the level of physical contact you want to engage in.
Is this for me?
This evening is for you if you're seeking:
✨ Deep, meaningful interactions - no small talk
✨ Exciting new connections, romantic, platonic or somewhere in between
✨ A chance to explore embodied awareness and somatic connection
✨ A substance-free environment with a warm, welcoming atmosphere
✨ Skills to enrich your interpersonal relationships long after the evening ends
✨ A space to simply be yourself
Whether you're a seasoned workshop-goer or brand new to these practices, you'll find something valuable here.
Why are tickets sold by gender? 👫
To ensure that the gender balance is as even as possible, it is important to keep track of how many men/women/non-binary people are signing up. If a particular gender is over-represented in the run-up to the event, we do our best to ensure that under-represented gender(s) also sign up.
While we aim to achieve an even balance of genders (and ages), this is not always possible. However, what is guaranteed are skills that you can apply to any connection. Simply come with an open mind and ready to connect.
