Sometimes I catch myself going about my days in a robotic manner without knowing how to break out of the loop. I realise that I feel disconnected from my body, emotionally clogged up and that I have not felt playful in ages.🤖
This tends to come with a feeling of a disconnection to the people around me and a sense that I don’t belong. 🫥
The cure that has worked most effectively for me, to relieve this condition has always been a good dance floor.💃🕺
It allows me to drop back in to my body and start expressing my self and I give me the chance to connect with the other dancers through play and movement.
This is the main reason I am so obsessed with great dance floors and have dedicated myself to learn how to create more of such spaces, as I find that there are too few dance floors out there that can bring me that relief.
Here are 3 qualities that I find I need for a dance floor to be transformative:
1. The music has to resonate with me on a deeper level and seduce me to go along for the journey, to allow me to drop from my mind to my body. 🔊❤️🔥
2. A decorated environment that feels novel and breaks with the everyday aesthetic to shift me into a different mind space than my defualt.✨
3. A safe social environment, where I can trust people to be attuned to others boundaries. This allows me to open up to my full embodied expression.💞
Last month, I hosted a dance floor ceremony together with Magnús, called The Dance Portal, with the aim to really design a dance floor that would feel safe, playful and connecting to the participants and I am so amazed by the energy that was created within the group of dancers.🤩🔥
We both feel really inspired after the magic that was created at the first Dance Portal and we believe that there is still room to improve and make an even more impactful experience, so we have decided to make a second edition of The Dance Portal on the 27th April. 🚀🌀
If you also could need some of that sweet dance medicine, you are very welcome to join us. ❤️🔥
