Somatic Water Dance: Workshop & Jam

Somatic Water Dance is an immersive experience where body, breath, and water merge into a fluid dialogue. It is a practice of surrender and exploration, inviting you to soften into the intelligence of water and let its flow shape your movement and sensation. In this space, water is not just an element; it is a teacher, a mirror, and a partner.

Rooted in principles from authentic movement, contact improvisation, yoga, aquatic bodywork, and authentic relating, this practice is held within a somatic, trauma-informed approach, creating safety for deep connection and embodied freedom.

• Relational MovementEvery gesture is an exchange: with the water that holds you and with the people who float, spiral, and breathe beside you.
• Contact & TrustWater dissolves boundaries, inviting safe, intuitive touch that supports and transforms.
• ConsentEvery interaction honors choice, safety, and clear communication.
• Authentic PresenceNo choreography. No judgment. No performance. Only truth and presence - movement as an unfolding conversation from within.
• Breath as BridgeBreath becomes our shared current, syncing rhythms between bodies and the vast body of water.
• Embodiment & Self-ExpressionFeeling and expressing the living body through organic, water-led movement.

In a world of noise and separation, Somatic Water Dance calls us back to primal connection: body to body, body to water, water to body, breath to breath. It is a space of belonging that liberates, where each participant becomes both listener and storyteller in the language of fluidity.
