Our sexual life energy is an essential part of the natural expression and movement of our body. One moment complex, the next moment simple, centered or ecstatic, then again absent or burdened with perceptions from past experiences. These workshop evenings offer you an opportunity to taste, experience and discover. To dance in presence, with all facets of our life energy and how it can flow through us in ever-changing forms. In contact with yourself, the other, the group, life. 'Libido - Love of Life' fully touches on the universal elements that relate to feeling, moving and expanding the possibilities of this life force to embody in all areas of your life. Exciting, joyful, overwhelming, terrifying, powerful, open, connected, solitary, mysterious and/or everything in between. Every evening is unique and highlights a specific facet. You can use the evenings to make a start, or to maintain your process. These topics are discussed and supported in more depth in other workshops and training courses. The next options are during the 'Libido Love of Life' introduction day on February 2, 2025 and the 'Libido Love of Life' Annual Training (Ongoing Group Four-Part) consisting of 4 separate modules that you can follow separately or as a whole.

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?
We start releasing our life energy in our body through movement. We then release our life energy in our mind and emotional body, our heart, by lovingly welcoming it and expressing it in the dance. We dance to ourselves. Learning to feel and follow your unique self. We dance together. Every encounter on this journey is a mirror of our own heart, its emptiness and fullness, its pride and shame, its problems and joys, its wisdom and innocence, its desires and generosity. We dance with life itself, with the realization of being part of a social field and a greater whole. Through Open Floor's dynamic dance meditation we create a safe and sacred space to move and dance with our flowing , open liveliness.
The evenings consist of the following parts: warm up with guidance, introduction and explanation of the theme of the evening, dance with guidance, free dance, joint conclusion. For more practical information about the evenings and guidelines for your dance, click here...

FOR WHOM?
These evenings are suitable for all adults, regardless of gender, sexual expression, preference and type of relationship. We strive to create an environment together where everyone feels welcome, can be curious, feels the opportunity to grow and where the personal experiences that everyone brings are respected. To participate, it is nice that you have some experience with dance forms such as OpenFloor, 5Ritmes, MovementMedicine, Biodanza, or similar.
There is no explicit sexual content during these workshop evenings. It is also not about living out your sexuality on the dance floor.

OPEN FLOOR DANCE
OpenFloor & 5Rhythms are dynamic dance meditations that are practiced worldwide. In this workout for body, heart and mind, there are no steps to learn and every dance is welcome. During the dance sessions, the dance teacher and assistants mix a variety of inviting music with clear, focused guidance to inspire and deepen your dancing. To explore with compassion in a lively, sometimes silent, dance what moves you inside and out. To connect with yourself, others, life, the world. To move towards a more fluid, creative way of being, let your energy flow, embody your life and dance fully in all its facets.
