Followers Voice: start the conversation
What happens when followers can contribute too in partnered dancing? And how can leaders learn to listen — not just execute moves, but engage by listening? In this session, we explore the shared responsibility and expression. The result? A conversation in your partner dance. (Max. 6 couples)
When and where?
21 jun 2026, 14:00 – 18:00
't Celestijntje, Celestijnenlaan 19, 3001 Leuven, Belgium
What will you learn?
Followers will explore different ways of improvising within familiar and fundamental shapes such as send-outs, change places, pass by's and tuck turns — while maintaining clarity and connection.
Leaders will focus on creating recognisability and listening by responding to what followers initiate. Rather than adding more moves, leaders learn how their existing vocabulary naturally evolves when space is given for dialogue.
By the end of the session, both partners will have experienced what it means to dance a conversation instead of reproducing a choreography or monologue led by one side. You’ll leave with concrete tools and inspiration to continue exploring shared creativity on the social dance floor.
TIP: If you want to learn more about connection, body awareness, and your role as leader or follower, I recommend first attending the focus session, “Connection Part I.” Please contact me if you have any questions.
