"I always lead.
I want to tap into the energetics of being led.
Of being receptive. Responsive."

If something in you recognized that, this series is an invitation to slow down just enough to actually feel into the space where that experience lives. Not to give up your power, but to discover what becomes available when you start from a place of authentic connection and let the conversation between two bodies find its own way.

This is what Heart Led Partner Dancing opens up. Not technique. Not choreography. The felt sense of being genuinely met by another person and moving from there.

WHAT THIS IS

A conversation rooted
in deep listening.

The Embrace Lab begins where most partner dance classes never go, into the heart space, engaging with the breath, and attuning to the subtle current that is already moving within us and between us before anyone takes a step.

When you learn to move from that place, something shifts. It stops feeling like a performance and actually becomes a dialogue we are co-creating. Like presence meeting presence, creating the space for the dance to emerge on its own.

No choreography to memorize. No steps to get right. Just two people, a little space between them, and the golden thread of connection that has always been there waiting to be felt.

Before contact with another, we return to the body, the breath, the spirals and waves and circles that are already moving through you.
Connection begins in the space before touch. The Heartstring Tug teaches you to attune to another person's breath, rhythm and subtle energy before you even make contact.
The hands are an extension of the heart. Allowing fullest expression of what the heart is already saying, a messenger carrying an invitation from one center to another.
When the connection is real, nobody is leading and nobody is following. The dance arrives on its own and takes you somewhere neither of you planned to go.

YOUR GUIDES

Dani & Garnet

Together we have been leading movement and embodiment work for more than 30 years and have taught in over 20 countries. Live classes and events, retreats, trainings, workshops and more. The Embrace Lab grew out of a practice we have been discovering together, one that keeps revealing itself every time we dance together, each time we teach it and always when we return to it ourselves.

We created this series because we kept meeting the same person. Someone deeply intelligent, fully present in their mind, capable of extraordinary connection, who had simply never been given a doorway into this particular kind of listening. Into the conversation that happens through the body before the language gets technical.

What we are offering here is simply what we have found works for us, and what we have watched open something real in the people we have shared it with.

From the opening meditation to the final guided journey, this series is designed to meet you on every level — body, breath, heart and presence — and walk you all the way through.
