This workshop will explore the topic of ‘queer sensitivity’ – a quality that empowers us in our Queerness and empathy for life and that nourishes our ability to love ourselves and others.

Breathe, move, dance, expand, talk, shake, let go, create… Let us claim and celebrate our ‘queer superpower’ in a community of fellow queer people.

Who is this workshop for?

Do you feel a calling to develop and sensitise your individual queerness? Do you wish to get a more embodied sense of your queer self? Then this workshop is for you – regardless of your level of experience with this kind of work. Let’s learn, move, dance, breathe and explore together, inviting the uniqueness of each and every one.

Why Queer Sensitivity?

Our queer way of loving has not been given to us for granted. We had to take many decisions to bring to life what makes us different. And often we had to do this while being in conflict with what is considered as “normal”. And yes, these experiences have surely left their marks on our hearts. But even though our past might have been difficult, we can today use it as a source of energy! Supporting each other we can reconnect to the strength of our decisions in a deeper way. We can be proud of what we have achieved, and let our love and our queer light shine brighter and brighter

What will we explore?

In this six hour workshop we will deal with the questions below – in bodywork, movement and dialogue.

  • How can we trust ourselves and each other queerly. As a physical, deep down feeling?
  • How can we feel our body as a self owned and self-evident queer shelter or safe space?
  • Which parts of yourself do you want to manifest more?
  • How can you embrace and empower the process of your own queer embodiment?
  • Can you feel more qualities directly? Are they powerful, light, earthy, angular, fluid, careful, amorphous, passionate, emerald green, grumpy, fragile, soft

Is it a Safe Space?

The workshop holds a mindful, playful and trauma informed space of sharing, unfolding and extending, trust and growth. We will respect our boundaries, without excluding, and will have the chance to connect and support each other physically, mentally, emotionally. 

As facilitators we are confident to be able to hold and carry different dynamics and spaces. It is essential for us to constantly evolve ourselves and to learn with and from our participants*

We ourselves feel as gender queer, feminist, open-hearted, sensitive humans and are able to hold and carry different dynamics and spaces…
