‘The Feels’ was developed in partnership with Columbia University’s Spirit Mind Body Institute; the format fuses positive psychology, group relations theory, somatic awareness, mindfulness + non violent communication tactics. Throughout the evening, you’ll be guided through prompts, positive reflections, and somatic elements like eye gazes and hugs.
We believe when you feel good + grounded in you -- that’s the best place to connect with others.
we believe our bodies hold ancient, infinite wisdom; we guide you into tapping into yours.
we believe we all desire to feel seen + heard; we guide you into a mutual exchange.
we believe its time for a new era in dating; we’re nurturing a community of 1000’s of people who believe ‘better relating is possible’
“I’ve avoided the world of dating my whole adult life, but am ready to change that. This was my first real attempt. It was a great way to jump right in.”
Past Participant, NYC
“I like the way in which there were deeper conversations other than the standard surface level questions. It made people think of not only how to look inside themselves but also how to listen and be attentive in the moment.”
Past Participant, NYC
“Intimate, expansive, deep.”
Past Participant, NYC
“Even though I didn’t feel like I met someone I could contact after the event to potentially date, I left feeling hopeful that there are people out there who are willing to be fully engaged and invested in a partner. That was refreshing after so many disappointing interactions in my recent past.”
Past Participant, NYC
“The prompts felt very deep and personal. I was surprised to find myself opening up so quickly.”
Past Participant, NYC
