EMBODIED: The Twerk Wellness Experience

This is a full-body wellness experience designed to move, release, reconnect, and EMBODY.

Created by Simone Sobers, EMBODIED blends Twerkasana™ somatic movement, twerk cardio, Afro, Soca, Dancehall, breathwork, and intentional embodiment into one high-energy, feel-good experience. Participants will move through grounding and nervous-system regulation, hip-opening and somatic release, rhythmic movement, cardio, and unapologetic self-expression.

Rooted in the belief that movement can be both medicine and celebration, EMBODIED invites you to get out of your head and back into your body—using the hips, breath, rhythm, and movement to release tension, build embodied confidence, and reconnect with joy.

Expect to sweat, shake, release, regulate, and take up space. No dance experience required.
