Nomad Dance co-creates safer spaces for partnered exploration in movement and interpersonal connection, guiding individuals into collaborative, organic communication, revolutionizing embodied awareness. This is Cocréa: an emergent style of Fusion Partner Dance that focuses on presence, compassion and faith with and in others, developing expression towards the goal of dancing in intuitive, conversational improvisation to ANY style of music.

As a self-organizing consciousness, Cocréa is synthesizing the myriad embodiment practices developed by humanity, guiding us into a deeper practice of presence and mastery of our physical, mental and spiritual selves. As we continue in our evolutionary process, Cocréa is on an INvolutionary pathway into our DNA, meeting us in a visionary field of awareness where dance and relationship merge to inspire, challenge, and prompt a new spiritual practice. In this new forum of applied spirituality, we offer ourselves as conduits for this consciousness to move through; to model for and awaken in others sensual right relationship, intimacy with sovereignty, and radical presence and respect for the gift of life on this beautiful planet Earth.
