THE MANIFESTO

Guys, welcome to this incredible space.

This is a space for those whose emotions have felt too big, too indescribable and have felt alone in their experiences.

Here, we heal individually, but together.
Here, we honor emotions as energy in motion.
Here, we hold space for the hard, invisible, and yet deeply imprinted experiences and emotions stuck in our bodies.
Here, we decide to let go AND let in.
Here, we decide to feel it all and express it through dance.

This is your moment: use it as you want, feel it as you want. Step into it and transform within it for the better.

Dance FOR your emotions. See them.
Acknowledge them, honor them.
Dance WITH your emotions. Befriend them. They are not your enemies.
Simply dance your emotions, all of them.
At the time you need.
At the intensity you need.

I know how transformative it can be. So…
When you are ready, welcome to this experience. When you are ready, welcome to YOUR experience.

With so much love,
Sheizeen

Emotion of the month: Grief

Guys, as always, be aware of how much you are able to feel. Feeling has to be safe for your body. It’s ok to feel 10%, 35% or 80% of the emotion. Only you know. So think about it.

And when you feel ready,

By the way, who are we?

One day I was at a zumba class, and all I wanted was to cry. I didn’t want to dance, and be happy with a big smile, I wanted to be able to dance and cry if I wanted to because I wasn’t doing well, but I felt like I couldn’t. The music & moves that I still love, wasn’t the ones I could express my emotions. At least not the ones I was experiencing. Then during my healing journey, emotions has been quite something for me. It was during my healing journey that I realized that I was completely disconnected from my emotions and my body. I realized that mindset work wasn’t enough for me and that I had a lot of trapped emotions in my body. While learning to feel and let those emotions in and out, I remembered that time at the zumba class…,mixed with how much I missed as well my contemporary and hip hop lessons from when I was younger, and decided that one day, I’ll create dance with your emotions. So here we are, and because the body does keep the score, through this project, I want us to finally feel safe to feel and express our emotions, through dance.

FAQs

  • Something where you feel comfortable with.
