take life as your lover.
Come…
-
ripple with the pulse of the universe
-
luxuriate in mystery and possibility
-
devote your attention to the shiver that lives underneath
this is an invitation to enter deeply into the sensuous world of mystery, communion, and play.
through devotional movement, guided meditation and embodied language
to become holy and wholly rearranged.
what is it to be holy rearranged?
to feel the sacred in the swaying of your hips, the sweeping of your arms. the inhalation and exhalation of your full body breath.
to touch the divine through the soles of your feet, the soft of your belly.
to breathe, move with reverence and prayer for your body, this life, our planet.
what is it to be wholly rearranged?
to be utterly, thoroughly, recalibrated. cell by cell. from limb to limb.
this is an invitation to be led by the temple of body: her primordial, ancient, universal intelligence. her sensuous, feeling curiosity. through devotional movement, deep stillness and embodied language.
two live gatherings on the first and third tuesday every month. intuitive dance and embodied writing.
this is not a formula, how-to, arrival, or something to master or subdue. it is a new lens through which to experience the world.
it is not about where you are going, but who you are while you are journeying.
it is how you show up for your own precious life.
it is a whole and holy rearrangement.
it is a homecoming.
it is bodily alchemy. a marriage of the cosmos and the earth of your body.
to touch the world, through heart, hips, pelvis. muscle, bone, blood, and sinew. breath and word. in stillness and in movement. it is melting into the everything, letting it change you, and birthing something new. conscious creative participation with source.
artistry rather than mastery.
it is seeing new possibilities. witnessing the sacred shimmer in everything. it is being in reciprocal circuit with the living breathing world. it is sinking your teeth into the flesh of life, letting it’s bittersweet juice explode in your being, becoming a part of you.
it is unleashing the current that lives inside.
becoming the flow. oceanic shapeshifting with the elements… an unfurling wave… rearranging of self to gather into a new wave. the same. yet wholly different.
to leave behind the predictable and patterned, the distracted, numb, and busy for the rooted, spacious, and wild.
it is a new way of being. wholly and holy rearranged.
for brave humans who…
-
are lovers, dreamers, courageous star gazers, dwellers, pioneers, and pilgrims of of the liminal
-
want to presence themselves to all of life
-
desire to be pointed back to their own primordial wisdom that flows through their veins
-
wish to dwell in the belonging of their body
-
are tired of abandoning themselves
-
are willing to sit with questions as much as answers
-
long to find and follow their body’s holy yes and sacred no
-
want to increase their capacity for sensation as a form of intelligence
-
want to infuse their life with rich juicy spaciousness
-
crave to dip their quill into the rich ink of the mystery to write a new reality
-
are bored with talking about healing and just want to get closer to all of life, the sublime and the down and dirty, and use it all as inspiration, as fuel, expanding their capacity to hold and feel it all
-
want to conspire with the universe
-
want to journey with ceremony in the companionship of community
-
wish to be wholly and holy rearranged
two live gatherings on the first and third tuesday every month. intuitive dance, guided meditation, and embodied writing.
we gather in online playgrounds to practice bodying a constellation of primordial intelligence through the portals of devotional movement, sensuous curiosity, and embodied writing.

meet your facilitators:
i’m daphne cohn.
i live for the mystery and the wildness of this life. i’m devoted to reaching, stretching, growing. ever curious, always questioning, never willing to settle inside any answer for very long. my body holds what my mind has forgotten. every day i move and write to remember my true.
i am a certified kindred movement facilitator, lay ordained zen buddhist, world traveler, mama of two beauties, community creator, writer, and podcaster with over 250,000 downloads.
i am turned on by the beauty and depth of humanness. i cry easily because life is so huge. i nurture safety in myself and others to awaken full expression and honest voice.
i’m nicole polk.
provocateur of goosebumps. cartographer of joy. weaver of magic.
turned on by life, itself. i’m deeply devoted to the thrill of being alive and finding a felt sense of belonging in the home of my body. building a life of curiosity and play, reclaiming pleasure as my birthright, the generative fuel that is its own reward. alchemizing the life that pours into me, making my body my primary medium of expression, so my life and art become one and the same, indistinguishable from each other. learning to steep in joy so long it pours from every cell of my body in generous overflow.
i create playgrounds for humans to seduce wonder and delight, plunging into a love affair between infinity and their bodies, companioning them home to themselves.

embodiment is simply being with the now. feeling the now. the now of the world flowing through your body. not needing it to change. simply being with all of it. it’s an opening and unraveling. a porosity of the body. embodiment is your capacity to feel into where you intersect with the universe. it’s is intimacy in it’s greatest sense.
-
at it’s simplest, devotional movement is movement + intention. it is moving your body in reverence to life. it’s a bodily prayer. a call and response. it is a way of being in ceremony and conversation with the universe. it is an honoring of the divinity of the world through the temple of our body. it is asking life’s questions with the body and letting your body be the expression of the answers you find. it is both a practice and a reward.
there is no right or wrong, good or bad.
we get good at what we practice. we practice dexterity, fluency, and articulation. moving in non-linear ways engages the same parts of our brains to make non-linear connections. it’s the heart of creativity. making new connections makes new possibility visible.

write (v.)
draw the figure of; carve
free writing in the greatest sense. free writing through free bodies. drawing with our body’s movement, writing with our mind’s imagination. an invocation. words born of the moment. words waiting to be unearthed, revealed. new truths, insights and epiphanies. words that change the way you see and how you live. loving yourself onto the page.
this isn’t about writing well or sounding good. this is about whatever is inside finding it’s way out. onto the page. into your life. you are a writer because you write.

that we will show up for each and every class with an honest inquiry into what is alive. to hold each class as if it was the most precious moment in our life. to open our bodies and hearts courageously to the conversation it wants to have with the universe. to invite you to journey with us, feeling into the ancient wisdom that flows through your cells. to invite you into a field of possibility, an ecology of options of which to author your life. you get to pluck the possibility, what you do with it, how you integrate it, how it spills out into your life, creations, relationships. you decide who you are in relation to your life.
your experience will be and should be highly personal. promising you a destination would be caging your wild, whereas we want to set it free. this series is about making YOU your own best teacher in a shared space with like-hearted souls. about inviting you to let the world pour itself into you and change you by the intimate conversation you have.
this takes radical self-responsibility. responsibility gets a bad rap, but we see responsibility simply as the ability to respond. this container is designed to be an act of deep listening. calling forth the whole of your intelligence in which you get to respond.
this is the ultimate act of love for yourself. it’s deeply devotional and powerful. but oh, the wild possibilities that live in you. we can’t wait to see what you do and who you become.
-
we understand life gets in the way and it’s not always possible to join live classes.
for $35/month you can have access to recordings. recordings will be of the teacher only to maintain the privacy of the participants.
while replays are available at the 2nd tier, we encourage you to join live whenever possible. nothing replicates the tangible energy of creating and witnessing together in real time. moving and sharing together creates incredible connection, love and change. holding space in companionship together simply amplifies the body’s experience.
-
we believe play and exploration is rooted in safety first. everything we offer is simply an invitation into experience that you choose how far to plunge into. it is gentle inquiry rather than demand. while we ask you to leave your cameras on during classes for us all to feel the energy of a living space, you never have to be in front of the camera if you donʼt want to be.
that said, the very act of creation, is by definition – risky. we do not know the outcome, where we will end up when we create something new. if there is no risk, there is no creativity, no new, no growth, no change. so we will encourage you to risk something. how much you risk is up to you.
-
for years weʼve been trained to express ourselves in words. to learn and live through words. but our bodyʼs language is so much older than our minds. guided intuitive movement will open you up to whole new worlds within and change the way you live in your outside world.
plus, it’s so much dang fun! the body revels in being moved outside the linear.
-
playground (n.)
a deep place to frolic; unimpeded movement while in connection with the earth
a space for the magic of the unknown to unfold. a rhythm of movement and rest. a pulsation. a place to fail. a place to play for the sake of playing. a place to be remade–to break down into elemental essence and rearrange into something new.
-
Item description -
a way to open the space and celebrate this journey together with intention. to delve deeply into the topics of devotional movement, sensuous curiosity, and primordial intelligence… not just with our minds, but experience through our bodies. to be welcomed into the community, to be known by one another. it is an honoring of ourselves and each other. of our unfolding and our new way of being.
