Dance and Movement

Dancer

If your body could openly express how you felt? If you were not self-conscious about being seen or what other people thought? If you were out of your head and deep inside the delicious sensations of your body? 

 

Welcome to Sensual Flow, an empowering class built upon the popular S Factor practice that brought sensual movement and pole dancing into the mainstream more than 20 years ago. Named for the S-like curvature of the female body, S Factor was inspired by the erotic expression of stripping. But as its creator Sheila Kelley explains, in this practice, “We are stripping away layers of social conditioning, negativity, and criticism.”

 

In a dimly lit room with no mirrors or men, we remove the gaze that can objectify our being and let ourselves move without fear or judgment. Our Sensual Flow teachers were trained at either one of the S Factor studios in Los Angeles or New York, or at Sensually Embodied in Boulder, and each brings their own flavor to the practice. Classes typically begin with a guided warm-up and moving meditation, and incorporate various exercises and soul-stirring music to enhance your own erotic and emotional expression. 


Note: This class is only open to students who have previously danced at S Factor or Sensually Embodied, or have completed our Sensual Flow Essentials course. Please contact us with any questions.

How would you move if there were no shame?

SENSUAL FLOW

DANCE / MOVEMENT

Since the dawn of time, women have danced in community with other women.

Whether it was in celebration, or to bond, grieve, or pray, they instinctually knew the healing potential available in conscious movement. Welcome Goddess offers an array of dance and movement classes that invite women back into their bodies and encourage them to take up space and reclaim their spirit.

  • It’s really up to you and the class in which you are participating. Overall, we recommend comfortable clothing that can accommodate movement, or sitting or lying on the floor. But if you feel like wearing something that makes you feel special and celebrated, go for it! 

     

    Many of the women in Sensual Flow and Belly Dancing will wear particular clothing for those practices. (Private changing areas are available.) You may want to bring knee pads if your knees are sensitive, particularly for Sensual Flow and Sensual Flow Essentials classes.

     

    A journal and pen are always a safe bet. Any class at Welcome Goddess has the potential to unlock inner wisdom that you may want to capture. We have plenty of space to relax after class and privately journal. 

     

    Welcome Goddess provides mats, cushions, bolsters, and blankets. You are welcome to bring your own such items, or a personal eye mask. 

     

    Soul Art classes provide all necessary supplies and smocks. 


    If a class requires you to bring something specific, this information will be included in an email after booking. You are also welcome to contact us with questions.

  • Not exactly.

     

    We love yoga. Many of our teachers also teach yoga elsewhere. Fortunately, there are plenty of great studios to practice yoga in the Denver metro area.

     

    Welcome Goddess offers something different. Most of our classes focus on listening to the body and learning to follow its inherent guidance, rather than moving it in a particular way to achieve a certain posture or result.

     

    Our classes are also uniquely designed to honor feminine energy and the natural abilities of a woman's body. For instance, so much of our power and intelligence is stored in our lower bodies, particularly our womb space. This area has historically been neglected because, as a society, we spend so much time in our heads. That, and the world has long vilified female sexuality. So, expect a lot of hip circles at Welcome Goddess because we are making up for lost time! 

    If you like yoga, you will love our Moving Mythology class, which features more goddess-inspired movement and yoga poses.

  • We welcome all levels at all classes and workshops, and no previous experience is required. 

     

    The one exception is our Sensual Flow movement class. To join this class, you must have completed our Sensual Flow Essentials course, or have a history of dancing at S Factor or Sensually Embodied in Boulder.
