The summer solstice is the longest day of the year, the moment of peak light, peak energy, and full aliveness. It's an invitation to meet that energy in your body.
​This workshop is a 90-minute journey through dance and somatic movement designed to help you connect with your fullest, most expressive self. No dance experience needed. No right or wrong. Just movement, sensation, and release.

What is DanceWell?
​DanceWell is rooted in a simple truth: anything that doesn't get expressed gets stored. In our bodies, our nervous systems, our thought patterns, our daily lives. Language can only take us so far. Movement can take us the rest of the way... through what's hidden, what's stuck, what's ready to be expressed, what's ready to be let go.

What to expect:
​We open with a somatic warm-up to awaken your body and meet the season. From there, guided exploratory movement to find and play with your own expression. Then dance choreography that builds on what you've uncovered, moving in connection with others and embracing your wild power. We close with an integration practice to let it land.
​You will leave feeling lighter, more alive, more yourself.

This is for you if:
​ - You're craving movement, whether you've never danced before or have been dancing your whole life
- ​You're looking for something that goes deeper than your regular routine
​ - You've been feeling stuck, flat, or disconnected from your body
- ​You want a space to express what words can't reach
- ​You're ready to meet the season with your whole self

​What participants say:
​"I came into this looking for a way to release stress and move more, but the outcome was so much more than that. It helped me reconnect with myself both physically and emotionally. I'm starting to feel comfortable in my own body again."
​"I have chronic pain and I'm so glad I went to each class. My pain eased every time I was dancing and some days after, I was finally able to get good nights' sleep."
"Every time I came to class tired and emotionally burnt out, but left feeling energized, focused, and happy."

​The seven-class DanceWell Emotional Landscapes series sold out in Mexico City. Now the experience comes to you in Northern Michigan.
