1

All of you is welcome.

We don’t care how you dance or how you look. We’re inclusive of all dancers aged 18+. This is a safe space for your gloriously imperfect self to let it all hang out.

we believe…

2

Movement is a profound practice that builds resilience.

Deep Dance is a lightly guided experience to encourage you to open new places in yourself. Our facilitation is optional - let it push your edges or just use it as an invitation to expand your body awareness.

3

Dance floors should be somatically intelligent.

Our facilitation is trauma-informed and designed to deepen your relationship with your body. We take care of your nervous system - and we believe that when we’re embodied, we become better leaders.

4

Community is true wealth.

Dance is a vehicle of connection and a teacher of intimacy. In our disconnected world, we need to practice the skills it takes to cultivate (and keep!) relationships. When we’re supported by a village, we thrive.

  • A: Deep Dance is a moving meditation - at times reverent, at times irreverent. Our DJ leads play music in a classic arc format from slow warmup to a big crescendo and then back down again, guided by the music and our DJ Leads. We do a little warm up together at the beginning to set the stage and to kick off the group vibe.

  • We will be hosting live DJs from the LA freeform dance community and beyond. See our current schedule here.

  • Studio quality sound with 4 large stadium style speakers and a healthy amount of oomph and double-dose of thump.

  • Funds go to rent, insurance and other operational expenses. The Deep Dance Crew is all volunteers and we invest all the proceeds from admission fees back into the dance community.

  • The Crew includes a group of local folks who volunteer their time, including JPZ+, Ave Karp, Eva Clay, Bonnie Solomon and other friends.
