feels academy

an online, embodied approach to relating for humans who are ready to learn how to feel more.

the current dating sitch

the Dating industry is not built for depth. it's optimized for swipes.

its selling 'success' thru dating app profile reviews, how to game the algorithm, how to manifest one's perfect person. we do not believe this is what's going to lead you — or anyone else — to feeling what we all want to feel: seen. held. loved. belonged.

we have a theory as to how we can all better date + relate: we believe it begins with you knowing you better. from there, we believe in forming dyads that have more honesty built in; and extending out even wider: we believe you need an (IRL) community around you, as this is ultimately the best place to meet your person.

The Feels Academy exists as a radical alternative to the current dating industry paradigm: designed to be a space to slow down, tune in, and build relational skills many of us were never taught.

our
philosophy

  1. 1

    We focus on embodiment, awareness, and relational honesty.

  2. 2

    At The Feels, we believe your body is a source of information, not something to override. Clarity doesn't come from more analysis — it comes from self-trust.

  3. 3

    Feels Academy brings together embodied practice, key relational tools, and real-time connection so people don't just think about dating differently — they experience it differently.

  4. 4

    It's about becoming more available to the kind of connection you actually want.

Modern Dating 101

Dating doesn't have to feel this hard.

Modern Dating 101 is a self-paced, 8-week course that gives you the framework, tools, and self-understanding to date with more clarity - and less confusion, second-guessing, and exhaustion.

Over 8 weeks, this course explores:
the current landscape + why now is the hardest moment in history to be dating
how to overcome some of the macro-level challenges we're in
how to tune into your body, so you can start to make new choices
how to identify your patterns, and start to re-wire them
new tools for relating 1:1 with people you're called to
the mechanics of where and how to meet people today

45-minute video sessions, a curated reading list, and downloadable worksheets - all yours to work through at your own pace, on your own timeline.

Get The Course

(self)Trust in Practice is a 7-week online accountability + instructional experience to help you meet your relating goals for the year ahead.

Inside the group, you'll get:

  • structured accountability — with a Group Bestie + the wider cohort
  • tools and exercises to help you tune into yourself, build intimacy, and navigate modern dating
  • real-time lessons and practice in live sessions led by Allie and Beth
  • support via discussions, WhatsApp and, when possible, in-person meetups in NYC, LA, and SF

This isn't another course or therapy session. It's an experience that blends coaching, relational insight, and shared practice so you can stay connected to your values, boundaries, and emotional truth.

Next cohort begins January 2027.
