About this Event

💛 Anti-Valentine’s: Come As You Are

Yoga • Breathwork • Somatic Movement • Shared Food

Not into Valentine’s Day?
Feeling single, lonely, over it, or just done with the pressure, the pink hearts, and the performative romance?

This afternoon is for real humans who want to be together — without pretending, without couples-only energy, without forced love narratives.

We’re creating a warm, grounded space to move, breathe, share food, and sit together in honesty and ease. A place to feel your body, regulate your nervous system, and remember that you’re not alone.

This is about community, shared experience, and filling the gap Valentine’s Day often creates — especially for those who don’t fit the script.

What we’ll do together
• Gentle yoga to arrive in your body
Breathwork to release tension, sadness, and emotional overload
Somatic movement to shake off heaviness and reconnect with aliveness
• Warm tea and grounding rituals
• A simple, nourishing shared dinner
• Time to sit, eat, talk (or not), and be held by the group

No fixing. No forcing joy. Just being together.

💛 This event is for you if:
• You’re single and don’t want to spend Valentine’s Day alone
• You feel lonely and want safe, low-pressure human connection
• You want to escape the Valentine’s Day “crap” and do something meaningful instead
• You crave community, warmth, and real presence

You don’t need to bring a partner, positivity, or a plan.
Just bring yourself — exactly as you are.
