about us

Dallas Movement Collective is a home for movement, learning, and good-hearted connection.

We gather to dance, practice, learn, serve and remember something pretty simple:

Movement helps. 

so ..

what actually happens?

If it's your first time, welcome.

We gather. We circle up for a welcome, and then let the music take us from there.

There's no talking on the dance floor.
No phones.
No performances.
No expectations to “get it right.” 

Some folks dance the whole time. Some sway. Some stretch. Some laugh. Some cry. Some dance together, some dance with themselves. It’s a place to celebrate, to grieve, to play, to release, to feel … to feel alive again. 

There isn't one right way to do this.

It’s about how it feels, not how it looks. 

Just come exactly as you are.

And the dance will take it from there.

Our Agreements

aka: ways we take care of each other

❋ Screen-free

No phones. No photos or videos. Less scrolling. More soul-ing.

❋ Alcohol-free

We keep this space substance-free so everyone can be fully present.

❋ Feel your feelings

Joy, grief, laughter, tears... whatever's true for you is welcome here. We are here to move through it, together.

❋ Consent is cool.

Respect each other. We use “hands at heart” 🙏 for nonverbal communication of our boundaries on the dance floor.

❋ No talking on the dance floor

We hold a non-verbal space to let the mind quiet and body speak.

❋ Bare feet encouraged

Kick your shoes off and get grounded. Supportive footwear welcome, if needed for mobility.

Basically: be kind. be present. use common sense. and we’ll be alright, ya’ll.

Ya’ll really does mean all

You don't need to be a dancer.

You don't need special clothes, a certain body type, the right vocabulary, or a particular set of beliefs.

Come curious. Come awkward. Come joyful. Come tender. Come exactly as you are.

We celebrate being a room of all ages, backgrounds and walks of life.
