Body + Soul Sundays
Dance Your Heart Open
Move your body and dance your heart open!
Body + Soul Sundays are a sweet opportunity to connect with our community in-person and explore both types of dance offerings.
Most Sundays we begin with JourneyDance, a free-form guided movement meditation designed to release shame and anxiety, calm your nervous system, expand your capacity to be with your emotions, and build Self Love, and then we move into an all body loving Burlesque class.
* October 6 we're welcoming JourneyDance creator Toni Bergins for a special event! *
Our monthly JourneyDance will take place within the broader Embodiment Experience weekend workshop. See below for info on both, and to register for just the JourneyDance in advance.
Burlesque will return November 3.
JourneyDance is the dance that brought me home to myself after 10 years of performing on Burlesque stages and a lifetime of dance training, and is a wonderful way to get into your body and move just for the fun and feeling of it.
This isn't about steps or how you look to anyone else, this is about connecting with how you feel and accepting that all of it is OK!
Adjustments and modifications can be given for mobility and experience levels. Please contact us if you have any questions or desire modifications and we'll do our best to work with you.
All skill levels, backgrounds and gender identities are welcome in our classes to celebrate their sensuality, power and joy.
This is your protected space for all parts of yourself to be heard and welcomed. Moving Limiting Beliefs out of your body, tuning into messages that it's time to rest, set boundaries or celebrate wildly, exploring new movement and expression to live in power, pleasure, joy and resilience -- Let's Dance!

Your Guides
Eva D'Luscious
Founder BodyMagick Temple
Though I'm known as the High Priestess of Tease, I'm a champagne glass half full broad who also loves to please.
Whether it be through BodyMagick Burlesque classes and performances, or guiding people into their power through dance ritual, I bring Bling & Blessings wherever I go!
My Portland, OR, home is surrounded by a garden, and filled with my husband, 2 teenage sons, an absurd amount of costumes and outdoor gear, and absolutely no patriarchal BS.
I've been a Certified JourneyDance Guide since 2020, and added Facilitator Level in 2023. I'm honored to hold space for you to tune into your body and build trust with your own wisdom and power.
Toni Bergins
Founder & Creator JourneyDance
I care about you and your journey to transform your life from the inside out.
Over the past 27 years, I have helped thousands of people discover the confidence, inner wisdom, emotional health, and spiritual connection that comes from embodied movement.
I created JourneyDance out of my own healing movement practice and to expand my capacity beyond the constraints of perfectionism and feeling “not good enough”.
Today I lead a community of over 1,500+ JourneyDance facilitators to inspire people all over the world to inhabit themselves in a way that brings healing and joy, even in troubled times. Together we will embark on a powerful healing journey for ourselves and the collective, one dance at a time.
