What You'll Learn During Somatic Dance for Emotional Alchemy With Bernadette Pleasant

Our emotions are meant to be expressed. Whether we deem them good or bad, it’s their nature to “move” us, and, for our own wellbeing, they should move through and out of us as well.

Scientific research shows that stress caused by pent-up emotions can contribute to many health issues, including high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and even a suppressed immune system.

And, as you’ll discover during this uplifting hour with renowned somatic healer and fiery dance teacher Bernadette Pleasant, truly feeling your emotions can not only improve your wellbeing, but can be the key to living a:

• Juicy
• Fully experienced
• Passionate
• Sensual life

And opening you up to fully and joyously being YOU.

Bernadette will show you how you can perform intuitive, freeform dance movements to the beat of a drum, to get your focus off of your repetitive thoughts and into the wise and healing sensations of your body.

Studies on the psychotherapeutic use of dance show that dance promotes emotional, social, cognitive, and physical integration, and can significantly improve your health and wellbeing.

In her own journey of self-exploration and healing through movement, Bernadette discovered that this ancient form of self-expression can help break patterns of people-pleasing, putting other people’s needs ahead of your own, and other soul-stifling behaviors. Dance can also help us re-embody childlike spontaneity, curiosity, creativity, and joy.

During this liberating hour with Bernadette, she’ll show you how you can perform intuitive, free-form dance movements to the beat of a drum. The steady rhythm of the drum removes your focus from your repetitive thoughts and into the groove of your body’s wisdom and language of joy.

Freeform dance has no rules or structure, the point is to just let the music move you. There are no wrong moves! Dance to the rhythm of the drum and the inner rhythm of your higher Self. Let your dance express and release the feelings you need to let go and release!

You’ll discover just how powerful movement can be in helping you discern, feel, and liberate your emotions.

Bernadette is a vibrant example of what’s possible for you. Her high-energy teaching style is inspiring and intoxicating. You’ll want to know her secret… to feel the abandon and joy she exudes… to jump right in and learn to better recognize and express your emotions.

Somatic Dance and Releasing Stress

When you embody healing somatic movements, you experience a powerful and easy way to release constricted emotions, calm your nervous system, release stress, and step more confidently into your authentic Self.

What if you could just let go… and open to the wisdom and guidance of your emotions?

Many of us are too emotionally on guard these days to open to the life-affirming messages of support, encouragement, and love that can flow from our hearts and authentic feelings.

That’s where dance mage Bernadette Pleasant can meet you, see you, and guide you…

Through a gentle, and, at times, exhilarating form of somatic dance, she can help you touch into difficult feelings you may be experiencing — including  fear, grief, anger, shame… or joy that’s stirring beneath the surface.

Our emotions are meant to be experienced, expressed, and released. Whether we deem them good or bad, it’s their nature to “move” us, and, for our own wellbeing, they should move through and out of us as well.

Scientific research shows that stress caused by pent-up emotions can contribute to many health issues, including high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, diabetes, and even a suppressed immune system.

Bernadette’s own life challenges triggered a deep emotional shutdown and overwhelming sense of shame and discomfort around her body. It wasn’t until her daughter was born that she found the courage to turn things around and start the long and difficult journey back to her Self.

Bernadette followed the groove of her own drumbeat to reach the indwelling place of her truest passion: primal, natural, emotional movement through dance.

She’s a spirited, energetic, and fiery teacher, and the creator of the popular mind-body wellness program Femme! And it’s no wonder… she comes from a long line of natural healers who use touch and movement to help others find peace, empowerment, and wellness.

Studies of the psychotherapeutic use of dance show that dance promotes emotional, social, cognitive, and physical integration, and can significantly improve your health and wellbeing.

During these turbulent times, we’re all bound to be holding strong feelings… perhaps some we’re not even aware of. And if you’re like many, you may even feel guilty about feeling joy in the midst of all the suffering around the globe.

Feeling joy is what you MOST need to be doing right now!

In her own journey of self-exploration and healing through movement, Bernadette discovered that this ancient form of self-expression can help break patterns of soul-stifling behaviors and valuing others’ expectations above your own.

Bernadette’s specific innovations in somatic movement and dance therapy can help you rediscover your primal self — perhaps the most essential and potentially most minimized factor in your personal freedom. Primal wildness doesn’t mean lack of control and unaccountable behavior; it means actually feeling alive — in a world that prefers tameness and sameness.

This is a form of dance anyone can do… drawing from your own inner rhythm — your Higher Self — as a catalyst for expressing and releasing your feelings that need to be released.

And Bernadette is a vibrant example of what’s possible for you. Her high-energy teaching style — using sound, beat, rhythm, and emotion — is inspiring and intoxicating. You’ll want to know her secret… to feel the abandon and joy she exudes… to jump right in and learn to better recognize and express your emotions.

“Like most women, I was taught to conceal my deep-seated anger and grief. [Bernadette] has inspired me to liberate myself from feeling any shame for having a full range of emotions. In her Femme! class, we move out EVERRYTHANNG from sadness to FLIRTATIOUSNESS!

After getting the depth of this collective tragedy, she gets you out of your seat, and with her signature Femme! moves and drumming ensemble, she masterfully gets EVERY SINGLE MEMBER in the revved-up audience to cross the ocean with their hips and rediscover and inhabit their bodies in brand-new ways so that no woman or girl, including YOU, will ever dim your light again for ANYONE.” — Loraine Van Tuyl
