Embodied Polarity Series 8 Week Bachata Sensual Course - Level 1

Embodied Polarity Series is an 8-week in-person dance course in connection and consciousness through bachata sensual.

This is a dance course with a difference. You won't just learn incredible dance foundations and have a tonne of fun, you’ll also explore what it takes to dance with connection, consciousness, and embodiment. Through our 'embodied polarity' structure, we'll take you through themes ​such as confidence, trust, surrender, masculine and feminine dynamics, play and flow.

Consider it 70% dance, 30% woo (personal development) ;)

As a man, you'll learn how to feel confident and comfortable in moving your body, leading a woman with your masculine presence, learn how to create the safety a woman needs to surrender, and together enjoy beautiful dances and moments in sensual bachata.

As a woman, you'll learn how to let go of the need to lead or control, to soften and surrender, and deepen into your sensuality while learning how to follow with flow and femininity; finding the safety and trust to be led.

If you're new to bachata sensual, you'll leave these 8 weeks able to lead and follow with confidence and connection.

And if you have previous experience, even if you've got years (yes, we mean years), you'll learn to dance in an entirely new way that is far more connected, present, and embodied than is ever taught in the dance community. (We know, we’ve been in it for a combined 20 years).

... All of this while coming to know yourself on a deeper level.

Welcome to the embodied polarity fam bam.

*Note: You do not need to register with a partner to attend, nor do you need any prior dance experience*

Testimonial:

"I've never felt like I felt last night dancing bachata. I felt different, the connection was different. A whole new level of bachata has been unlocked for me." - Emma (one year dance experience)

Testimonial:

“Before coming into the course I hadn’t really loved my experiences with learning partner dance but even after the first class I began to become more connected with bachata and have developed a full-on crush with it.

I found the way Madalyn and Kristian teach is dynamic, in-depth, fun, and a completely new approach to learning dance. They were able to blend in embodiment, which allowed us to drop into our bodies, connect us to ourselves, and then to our partners to create synergy with one another.

With the intimate sized class, it allowed us to come together as a community, be in our realness, connect, laugh, and grow. So grateful to have learned bachata this way, not sure how it could be taught any other way. Thanks legends!” - Chad (no dance experience)

I have had the best time in the Embodied Polarity Series over the 8 week course.

Kristian and Madalyn provided a safe, beautiful, and relaxing environment for their students.

They are super sweet, funny, passionate, flexible, patient and very dedicated to what they do. They are the most motivating dance instructors. It was a wonderful experience for me.

Kristian and Madalyn truly care about each and every one of their students and encouraged and showed up every step of the way in perfect form.

I am lucky to be part of this class. I have met some of the most beautiful people throughout this time." - Erika
