Sensuality is a felt sense, unique to YOU. Instead of performing sensuality, explore what it feels like to YOU.
In my Sensuwell sessions, particularly in 1:1s, one question comes up again and again: How do I move more sensually?
I believe sensuality begins with presence, a felt sense of being here, fully.
For years I’ve been teaching the art of sensuality through dance, guiding women into their bodies and into a deeper embodiment of themselves. And the key I return to, again and again, is this: we have to stop performing.
We have to slow everything down and feel more.
I know, slowing down sounds impossible when life is overflowing. We’re achievers, caretakers, providers, creators. We have families, responsibilities, deadlines, expectations. But even inside all of that, we still have a choice:
the choice to bring presence into everything we do.
When we begin to find presence in the small moments, the everyday ones we usually rush past… yes I know, I do it too. But when I do slow down and find presence, I start to hear my body more clearly, and I think that’s true for everyone.
We start to hear what it needs. What our body’s desire. What they’re longing to express. Sensuality grows from this rooted awareness of our life, our breath, and our being.
And when we access that, the way we dance changes too. We move from a deeper place, attuning to what she, the inner self, is ready to reveal. Dance becomes an expression of the worlds inside us, the parts we rarely let be seen.
In our classes last week, we explored what it means to be less performative, not only in our dance, but in our lives.
Where do we show up polished instead of present?
Where do we act instead of feel?
Where do we perform instead of simply be?
These are the questions I’m asking myself as I continue to cultivate presence, sensuality, and authenticity in everything I do. And as I slow it all down, especially in a season that tries to speed us up, I’m learning to show up more truthfully, unapologetically, and in alignment with what actually serves me and in return this has great impact on my movement and the way I dance through my life.
