Sense awakening – closed eyes dance lab – Queer Bridges
with Mayila Khodadin
for LGBTQIA+ Queer Migrants
Free event with registration

This workshop invites participants to explore dance with closed eyes, engaging all senses to challenge perceptions and sharpen awareness. In a gentle, curated space, voice and touch are used to discover how disconnecting from our dominant sense changes our approach to others. Designed for LGBTQIA+ people with migrant backgrounds, the workshop offers a rare chance to focus fully on oneself, feel safe and calm, and return to social interaction with greater confidence and presence.

Queer Bridges: Forging connections and providing resources for LGBTQIA+ people with experiences of migration and/or displacement.

Queer people with experiences of migration and/or displacement in Berlin often face unique challenges in their daily lives that can limit their access to supportive communities and inclusive environments.
With the support of the Deutsche Fernsehlotterie Stiftung, we have developed the Queer Bridges program to overcome these barriers. We provide resources, networking and support in a welcoming environment for queer immigrants and refugees through our special program. Our goal is to foster a sense of belonging to the local LGBTQIA+ community, enabling smooth integration and an improved quality of life for queer folks with experiences of migration and/or displacement.

✅ Our Queer Bridges program will continue to evolve and we are always happy to hear about your needs. If you are interested, you can send us an e-mail to stay informed about further updates.
