you're invited to an ongoing experiment:
what creates depth + connection?
we'll test some assumptions:
breath +
gaze +
words +
contact +
stillness
...create feelings of
ease
groundedness
comfort...
and from that place
we'll find each other
and
together we'll go
into the void.
there'll be guidance
+
libations
+
some light bites
so...
come find out what the buzz is 'bout.
you're wanted here.
// the flow + the foundation \\
'the feels' mixes time to meet and connect casually, with a 90 min facilitated portion.
the format of the facilitated segment rests on some assumptions:
when we feel grounded + good in our bodies,
an openness is available -
and
that space is ideal for connecting to others.
from mindfulness, we layer in
your body's somatic intelligence,
non violent communication tactics,
and what we know from positive psychology
+ group relations theory,
about
how to most effectively engage w others.
throughout the evening,
you'll be paired up to 5 times.
we close as we opened:
with a here + now check in/out.
then we return to free time.
🌀🌀🌀
...that's all cool, but does it 'work' - ?
In a word - YES.
In Q1 2023, we conducted a survey
of past participants
in partnership with Columbia University's Spirit Mind Body Institute.
the goal was to understand to what extent the format created (more) meaningful connection than a typical singles event.
Results showed that 'the feels' is
2x more effective than a typical dating event;
over 60% of respondents left with a connection that carried forward,
and of those,
over 50% were still in touch
at the time of survey.
So come cuz it feels good,
stay for the opportunity to learn new tools for relating
and leave with an exciting new connection.
A note 'bout pricing + refunds
These events are intentionally priced. Meaning: I (Allie) know they're not cheap. We’ve designed it this way for a # of reasons, namely that we want the room to be fully bought in. Literally, figuratively + emotionally.
To that, if you scoop a ticket and you're not able to attend for whatever reason, then we will put your 'credit' on file for a future event, exchangeable one time. This way, you won't miss out on the experience and can still join us for another gathering that resonates with you.
However, please note that if you cancel your ticket within 24 hours of the event, the credit option will not be available.
If you have to cancel or charge your ticket please let us know as soon as possible — that way others who are interested also have the opportunity to attend.
If any of this feels sticky or unfair - DM me + let's chat more. I'm here to address any concerns or questions you may have.
Thank you for your continued support, and I look forward to co-creating powerful experiences with you.
Warm regards,
Allie
