Summer Flavours & The Art of Embodied Dating - (Age 35-55)*
As the summer heat slowly starts to build, we invite you to another round of Softer Dating!
Dating can often times feel very “heady” and intellectual. We think about what to say, try to be funny etc. but by doing that we miss out on a bunch of other juicy and good stuff!
This is for you, if you are ready to explore new ways of being in connection beyond the regular small-talk.
The thing is, our bodies are incredibly good at understanding what they like and dislike. While the mind is busy making up stories, the body, already senses what is happening in this moment.
In this event you are invited to allow your body to lead your experience.
Words and thoughts get to take a little break tonight.
You won’t have to think about what to say next, what to share in order to fill the silence. You get full permission to be in the body, and we will guide you into that space.
WHAT YOU'LL TAKE WITH YOU
Beyond the evening itself, many people leave with:
New ways of connecting - discovering forms of interaction that go beyond talking
Greater body awareness - more in touch with your own body, your yes, and no
Self-knowledge - understanding yourself more deeply through experience rather than analysis
Confidence - both in social spaces and in honoring your own boundaries
A shifted perspective - on how you approach people and relationships going forward
You'll learn to take responsibility for your own experience, developing the skill and ability to shape what happens rather than waiting for the other person to create it. This often translates into presence, a quality that serves you far beyond dating.
THE EVENING
Part 1: Embodied Moments of connection
You’ll meet a range of people through short, guided one-on-one experiences. By removing the pressure of choosing, we create space to simply be present and curious.
Consent is explicit throughout. All exercises are invitations, you can always choose to do less or observe.
Part 2: Guided exploration with choice
As the group has landed and found comfort together, you now choose freely who you want to connect with.
We’ll explore connection through:
• Moving your body (dance, movement)
• Mindful touch (soft, consensual)
• Curious conversations
• Observation & rest (take a break anytime)
Touch and closeness may arise, if desired. The atmosphere is intimate but not sexual. No nudity, no pressure.
PS: We don’t share the specific exercises in advance for a couple of reasons: to keep the surprise; because what we do depends on the group’s energy. See it as an invitation to trust and stay curious!

QUESTIONS?
What if I don’t like an exercise?
You can observe instead. We encourage people to take care of their boundaries—it happens and we think it’s wonderful.
What if I feel awkward?
Awkwardness and shyness are welcome. You don’t need to pretend. Most people relax naturally after some time.
What about the gender ratio?
We can’t guarantee your preference will be there, but so far we’ve had a wide, colorful distribution of genders!
What if I’m paired with someone I don’t find attractive?
Softer Dating is about connection, not just romance. Can you bring respect and curiosity, even if there’s no spark? Also, know that you can always step out.

*Why age ranges? We want you to feel like you’re in the right room. Not wondering if everyone is 22 or if you’re the youngest by a decade. Age ranges aren’t about exclusion, they’re about creating comfort and confidence. We offer events for different age brackets.
