Dance Meets Tantra x Hawaii: REMEMBRANCE

Fri Feb 20 2026 4:00 PM - 9:30PM
Sat Feb 21 2026 11AM - 7:30PM

Sundari, Big Island

Welcome to REMEMBRANCE.
Dance Meets Tantra’s first immersion on the big island of Hawaii.

The Big Island moves slowly.
The land sets the pace.
If we listen, it asks the same of us - to soften, to slow down, to be with life as it is rather than rushing past it.

February 20 and 21, we gather on Big Island, Hawaii in REMEMBRANCE of Life’s sacred rhythms.

We start at 4:00 on Friday ending around 9:30.
We start back up at 11:00 in the morning and go until 7:30 pm on Saturday.

This is an invitation to slow down together - to feel the subtle layers within yourself and the group body.
From this place of deeply attuned presence, we learn to be with each other without pushing, without grasping, without needing anything to be different.

With volcanic aliveness pulsing beneath our feet, we will dance in the spirit of devotional embodiment - to remember that the sacred is not some far-off place we need to reach for.
It lives right here in every breath, every movement, every touch, in the land below, sky above, and heart center within.

REMEMBRANCE is a curated, intimate, weekend deep-dive to:
໑ Dance the Sacred
໑ Satiate your passion for dance and deep connection
໑ Open your heart and sweat your prayers
໑ Safely explore your edges and kinky side in a loving, supportive and trauma-informed environment.
໑ Connect & play with a community of like-minded souls and build authentic relationships.


✨ The Container (The Heart of Dance Meets Tantra)

We begin REMEMBRANCE by establishing a shared agreement field, something everyone can relax into, knowing we’re on the same page:
•⁠ ⁠Substance-free — We gather without drugs or alcohol, supporting clarity, presence, and authentic connection.
•⁠ ⁠Trauma-informed — We honor diverse nervous systems and lived experiences, moving with care, choice, and respect for personal pacing and boundaries.
•⁠ ⁠Consent culture — navigating consent verbally and non-verbally
•⁠ ⁠Eros-positive — we honor eros and sexuality, without making sexuality the focus
•⁠ ⁠“Bottoms stay on” — a clothing boundary in all public spaces
•⁠ ⁠Permission — to be your full, alive expression, including your sensual and erotic nature
•⁠ ⁠Safety — boundaries, attunement, consent, and self-responsibility are foundational
•⁠ ⁠Vulnerability — we create safer spaces to get real, present, and human together


✨ About Dance Meets Tantra:

Dance Meets Tantra is a transformational body of work exploring the confluence of conscious dance, relational intimacy, ritual and ceremony, and kink and shadow work. We are dedicated to empowering communities to relate with greater authenticity, aliveness, and care, embracing both light and dark while cultivating a group field that is profoundly greater than the sum of its parts.
Since 2021, we have been offering cutting-edge and trauma-informed workshops, retreats, facilitator trainings, and festivals around the world.
Perhaps you’ve been feeling the call, for dance spaces to evolve, to become more attuned and inclusive of a wider spectrum of expression; and for tantra to be more embodied, playful, and alive. You may sense, instinctively, that something extraordinary happens when embodied movers gather with the safety, permission, and presence to be fully alive and deeply connected.
This is Dance Meets Tantra.


✨ A Note on Tantra:

For us, Tantra is the practice and art of being fully alive. There is nothing sexual in nature in the activities we share. Sometimes sexual energy arises, and it is only permitted within the context of consent, agreements, and the container that is set.
Our intention with Dance Meets Tantra is to support individuals in deepening their love, respect, and relationship with themselves, others, and the earth. We believe that dance, eros, and Tantra are fundamental aspects of living a vibrant, empowered, and creative life. Through various explorations, we aim to liberate creativity and life force, inviting you to step into your fullest expression.
We hold deep honor and respect for classical Tantra and the lineages from which it originates. While classical Tantra profoundly influences our work, we do not present ourselves as representatives of classical Tantra.
