Reclaiming Your Erotic (Condensed-Choreo Only)
Adv Beginner/Intermediate • 90 Minutes
“I feel, therefore I can be free” - Audre Lorde
We are poetry in motion, Your erotic is your spark, seed of life, your motivation, your physicalized expression of honesty. How you move through the world, untainted by outside influence. Your unapologetic truth. Inspired by Excerpts & Quotes from Audre Lorde’s Essay The Master's Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master's House and All About Love by Bells Hooks, we’ll get out of our heads and into our bodies to connect the spiritual, physical & emotional to Reclaim Your Erotic.

Like many in the wake of 2020, RedBone was guided back to the basics of self care in addition to a daily practice of Journaling, Meditation, Yoga and Dance. Through reading Audre Lorde’s Essay The Master's Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master's House and All About Love by Bells Hooks, RedBone was reminded of her own sensuality & passion. She began to see the real world necessity for knowledge & education around normalization of sensuality, intimacy & the erotic, the difference between these, sex & pornography and the intersectionalities. The Erotic is an imperative conduit to our existence.
Starting with a meditative yoga inspired stretching series, cardio movement drills/across the floor followed by the choreography from the original 4 week series to 2:35 (I Want You) by Ashanti which is a mix of slinky contemporary jazz threading foundational hip hop funk style movements from locking & tutting and executing through the lens of Burlesque. Some dance experience is required. Must have basic knowledge of spotting.
