Connection Series Workshop with Johnas (Sydney)
About
Connection Series with Johnas Liu & MeilinExclusively brought to you by E&M
A 3-part workshop experience focused on building deeper connection — with yourself, your partner, and the music.
Designed for social dancers who want to move beyond “just patterns” and develop more confidence, presence, musicality, and authentic expression on the dance floor.
Workshop 1 — Connecting to Yourself
Body Awareness • Movement • Personal Style
Before connecting with anyone else, you need to connect with your own body.
This workshop focuses on body awareness, movement quality, posture, grounding, and developing your own unique style and flavour.
You’ll explore:
Body control and awareness
Movement texture and intention
Confidence in self-expression
How to move naturally instead of “copying shapes”
---
Workshop 2 — Connecting to Your Partner
Communication • Conversation • Co-Creation
Social dancing is a conversation, not a performance.
In this workshop, we explore how to truly dance with your partner instead of simply leading or following moves.
You’ll learn:
Clearer communication and responsiveness
Creating connection through intention and timing
How to co-create moments together
Techniques to make your dancing feel more organic and connected
---
Workshop 3 — Connecting to the Music
Musicality • Layers • Interpretation
Music is more than just counting beats.
This workshop dives into musical interpretation using different layers of the body, textures, timing, and dynamics to help you express what you hear.
You’ll explore:
Musicality beyond the basic count
Using different body layers to interpret instruments and energy
Playing with texture, accents, pauses, and dynamics
Creating dances that feel more expressive and alive
---
Whether you’re a newer social dancer or an experienced dancer looking to deepen your connection and musicality, this series will give you practical tools you can immediately apply on the dance floor.
Less memorising. More feeling. More connection.
