Welcome to Primal Play
When we feel safe, we play.
Just like animals we can connect without words. Through the language of movement, touch, sound, and breath, we open a space where we meet others without words, allowing each encounter to unfold from the rawness of the moment. This workshop invites for authentic connections without goals, judgments or expectations.
Here, everything is welcome, whether it's cuddling, wrestling, playful moments, or heartfelt tears.
Primal Play is a brave space, allowing you to practice moving towards what you want and away from what you don't. It provides an opportunity to explore with your curiosity, honor your desires, and feel your boundaries through the language of the body.
What will happen?
The main part of the workshop is Primal Play: a non-verbal practice where you and another person meet on a mat to explore what naturally comes alive between you. How does your body want to move? What feels authentic and enjoyable?
To ease you into feeling more connected with your body, we’ll begin with simple embodiment exercises. First on your own, then with others. I’ll be guiding you throughout, and everything is optional. It’s all about tuning into what feels right for you in the moment. The exercises invite you to move intuitively and listen to your body’s guidance.
Primal Play is a practice from the school Embodied Intimacy and is inspired from Ritual Play.

About the facilitator:
I am a certified psychotherapist and facilitator in the field of embodiment and intimacy, and one of the creators of ALIVE Tantra Festival in Copenhagen. I invite individuals, couples, and groups to slow down and connect with what is real in the moment, felt in the body.
With years of experience in embodiment, nervous system regulation, and authentic relating, I create spaces where intimacy can unfold naturally and safely. My approach is warm and playful, bringing curiosity and lightness into the exploration of connection, making room for both depth and ease.
