Welcome to Embrace
We invite you to partake in a lovingly curated movement space that encourages a community of folx who express themselves and find nourishment through delicious feeling, intentional PARTNER DANCE.
There are many spaces to move energy in a totally organic, free-form manner. We relish structure offered by the firm, supple frame of another body showing up to co-create deliciousness with us.
In this space, we lovingly nurture the human longing for connection and the nurturing available when we consciously and intentionally choose to share coherent movement with another human (or humans).
We welcome the surrender required to create something beautiful that is larger than the sum of ourselves and our partner within a community of mindful, expressive and courteous individuals.
COCRÉA & FUSION DANCE CULTURE is guided by consent and right relationship. This requires deep listening and presence. We are not an ecstatic dance, although we certainly encourage ecstatic states, be that through wild physical expression, or a quiet encountering of bliss that results in stillness.
We invite the full spectrum and we host a BRAVE space for everyone to show up holding it TOGETHER. WE create a SAFE space TOGETHER. We are all responsible for our impact.
Our invitations are manifold and our desire is the potent sense of connection that we (Cocréa and its cohorts) know and have experienced is possible when we say yes within a strong field of agreements.
INVITATIONS
We invite clear eyes and auric fields!
COME SOBER.
Embrace and the intelligence supporting it, Cocréa, is about practicing authentic relating and holds consent as central to its teachings. We hold that true, authentic consent isn’t possible when altered. As fun as it is, this is not that party. Let’s get high on endorphins, eye contact, breath, movement, touch and fresh, juicy beats.

We invite evolution and growth!
COME TO THE CLASS.
We love to dance and we love to be together in community, and we’ll be the first to acknowledge there is no better place to learn than on the dance floor in the moment. Except MAYBE in a space designed specifically to support you up-leveling your Jedi bad-assery. Join Wren and our occasional guest teachers for a 45-minute* drop of somatic inquiry into epic presence and attunement to enhance your coherent connection. Each of us committing to our growth grows us all.
