3 months agoI realized something along these lines during the COVID lockdown… I didn’t realize how much I’d miss a sweaty, packed dance floor! At-home, solo dance parties helped but definitely wasn’t the same
3 months agoAs a former client of an SE therapist for 7 years, a dancer, and a trauma therapist who has finished their first year of SE training, I agree and disagree. I think that with the knowledge and experience of these things, dance spaces can absolutely emulate somatic therapy (and do for me). But I don’t think people will likely have the same kind of experiences on dance floors alone, if they aren’t familiar with, and practicing somatic therapy off a dance floor as well. But for someone to understand titration, pendulation, resourcing, etc. in order to consciously practice them and utilize them as therapeutic tools, I think they need to be taught/guided by a somatic practitioner in addition to their solo dance experiences.
3 months agoNot AI, you make fewer mistakes 😂 A#1 DJ at knowing what's happening on the dance floor 🕺💃🏼
3 months agoYup. To be in the music is to be in the present moment. Let go of everything else. That’s peace.
