About this Event

A dating event for everyone who does not identify with heteronormative ways of dating!

A safer space for people who identify as queer, whatever that means to you!

Online Dating can be a drag, endless swiping, short-lived excitement and the sense of being just an object instead of a real human.

Softer Dating is the alternative to online dating where you’ll get to slow down, take a breath and meet others in a cute and embodied way

Slow
Playful
Queer
Embodied
And way more human.

Together, we’ll drop the script and make space for real, present-moment encounters. The night blends gentle structure (think one-on-one mini dates) with open time for deeper, spontaneous connection. Romance, friendship, something in-between: all are welcome.

Queer-centered, non-heteronormative

For the second time we offer a safer space for all you queerdos out there. A safer space for you to come and show up as you are.

Here's what's actually different tonight: not the exercises, but the room we share.

Everyone here has “opted in”, and already knows what kind of space this is. You don't have to gauge, guess, or come out to a stranger before you can relax into it.

The activities and exercises aren’t queer-specific. It's the same thing we'd offer anyone.

We want to offer you a dating event you can join, without the usual background tax: no need to read the room for safety, no deciding how much of yourself to edit, no bracing.

Underneath all our different ways of loving and identifying, most of us are after the same thing: to be met, without having to explain ourselves first. Tonight, that part's already handled.

WHAT HAPPENS AT SOFTER DATING?

Dating can oftentimes feel very “heady” and intellectual. We think about what to say, try to be funny etc. but by doing that we miss out on a bunch of other juicy and good stuff!

Together we will explore new ways of being in connection beyond the regular small-talk.

The thing is, our bodies are incredibly good at understanding what they like and dislike. While the mind is busy making up stories, the body, already senses what is happening in this moment.

In this event you are invited to allow your body to lead your experience.

Words and thoughts get to take a little break tonight.

You won’t have to think about what to say next, what to share in order to fill the silence. You get full permission to be in the body, and we will guide you into that space.

Agenda

🕑: 07:00 PM - 07:30 PM
Part 1 - Landing

Info: We start out by arriving, slowing down, landing in the present moment. Getting out of our heads and into our bodies

🕑: 07:30 PM - 08:30 PM
Moments of Connection

Info: You’ll meet a range of people through short, guided one-on-one experiences. By removing the pressure of choosing, we create space to simply be present and curious.

Consent is explicit throughout. All exercises are invitations, you can always choose to do less or observe.

🕑: 08:30 PM - 10:00 PM
Free flow

Info: As the group has landed and found comfort together, you now choose who you partner with. We’ll explore connection through:
• Moving your body (dance, movement)
• Mindful touch (soft, consensual)
• Curious conversations
• Observation & rest (take a break anytime)

Touch and closeness may arise, if desired. The atmosphere is intimate but not se*ual. No nudity, no pressure.
