Every third S unday starting in October! Read below for more info! \;\nRequired dr ess code: black \;\n\nSensual Dance presents THE SUMMONING: a Dark S ensual Dance event designed by dancers for dancers as a sensual\, no-sex -allowed dance journey! Singles and couples friendly! Poly &\; Monoga my friendly! Partner/fusion dancers\, solo/ecstatic dancers\, and dance- curious kink community folks are all welcome! \;\n\nStay for Oh My G oth afterwards where you can stay and play late into the night! \;\n \nSCHEDULE \;\nPre-party classes recommended (see above) \;\n6PM The Summoning \;\n8PM Oh My Goth \;\n\nTHE SUMMONING SPECIAL RU LES \;\n- Dress code: wear black ♡ \;\n- Please no bottomless nudity (lingerie/underwear is great) ♡ \;\n- Even without bottomle ss nudity\, please no genital area contact with hands\, faces\, or toys (grinding WITH CONSENT is welcomed of course ~ see consent tips below)  \;\n- Please pre-negotiate boundaries before touching or partner dancing or pampering or playing with anybody. This is not commonly a req uirement at partner dances. But you will need to do this here. ♡ \ ;\n- Hint: If verbalizing boundaries feels awkward or difficult for you in a partner dance context\, consider just partner dancing with people y ou know and asking them to dance with you like they already do elsewhere without any new escalations beyond that. That's a great ice breaker dan ce! ♡ \;\n- Support: Some folks may be available for you to practi ce talking about consent with. We may announce them in between DJ sets! ♡ \;\n\nCONSENT TIPS \;\nAt a minimum\, we recommend talking a bout "The Five Verbals" before partner dancing: \;\nGUSHING: ask if they're comfortable giving you a no before "gushing" i.e. asking for ero tic dancing\, dirty talking\, or giving erotic compliments ♡ \;\nG LIDING: ask before "gliding" your hands on people i.e. caressing\, rubbi ng\, massaging\, hairplay\, etc. ♡ \;\nGRINDING: ask before "grind ing" i.e. connecting pelvis-to-pelvis\, body-to-body friction ♡ \; \nGRABBING: ask before "grabbing" bodies\, body parts\, hair\, clothes\, props ♡ \;\nGRIPPING: ask before "gripping" i.e. tight gripping / tight holding / trapping ♡ \;\n(Source/Credit: SensualDance.com)& nbsp\;\n\nBE HUMBLE &\; BACKTRACK AS NEEDED \;\nWe understand tha t pre-negotiating boundaries before touching others is new for a lot of dancers and people may forget to do this while having good intentions. I f you find yourself partner dancing without pre-negotiated boundaries\, please pause or solo dance in order to take time to talk about boundarie s. At Sensual Dance events\, it's extra cool to be humble and backtrack to a consent convo as needed. We understand that we are building a NEW k ind of dance culture: a SENSUAL DANCE culture\, where solo dancing\, par tner dancing\, and sensuality are all celebrated together! This is WORK - and it's FUN WORK. By being here\, you are a part of this work. Thanks for doing the work to build and maintain a safer space\, and trying you r best! ♡ \;\n\nACCOUNTABILITY &\; RESTORATIVE PRACTICES \; \nPlease report any consent concerns to Daniel Oliver or a safety monito r\, and we will coach them onsite\, limit their freedoms for the remaind er of the event\, and/or assign offsite classes to them as appropriate. Of course\, serious boundary violations are grounds for removal and may require an endorsement from an approved consent professional prior to re stored access. And of course\, the club itself also has the right to enf orce its policies and preferences\, and we honor them! ♡ \;\n\nCLU B'S GENERAL RULES \;\nHard No’s: fire play\, blade play\, breath p lay\, fluid play\, food play\, fighting\, weapons\, or race play. \; \nSanctuary’s guests are asked to read\, verbally agree to\, and compl y with our Guiding Principles: \;\n\nKINDNESS\, RESPECT\, AND CONSEN T \;\nUpon entering Sanctuary you agree to uphold these principles.& nbsp\;\n\nCONSENT: \;\nConsent is a clear and unambiguous agreement\ , expressed outwardly through mutually understandable words or actions\, to engage in a particular activity. Consent can be withdrawn by either party at any point. \;\n\nRESPECT: \;\nUnless invited\, keep a r espectful distance from play. \;\n“No” means “No” (see CONSE NT). \;\nTouch AFTER invited (see CONSENT). \;\nKnow your bounda ries and state them clearly. \;\n\nKINDNESS: \;\nDon’t be a di ck. \;\nSpeak well of others. \;\nDo not be disruptive. \;\n Make introductions\, create community. \;\n\n* * *\n\nQ&\;A for T HE SUMMONING: \;\nQ: Who can I invite? \;\nA: That's up to you. ♡ \;\n\nQ: What's your overall intention here? \;\nA: A safe\, sensual\, sexy af vibe at Sanctuary\, catering to DANCERS\, where peopl e feel invited and welcomed and liberated at a whole new level. Having p rocessed the feedback of over 1\,000 dancers at my events\, a good chunk of them have expressed that no event I currently produce feels like a 1 0 out of 10 on "liberation". This will be a step up in that direction\, but also hold boundaries of no bottomless nudity and no sex allowed unti l the event is over and a separate event begins. ♡ \;\n\nQ: Can I solo dance? \;\nA: Yes that's probably what half the people will be doing half the time. Solo dancing is a great way to hangout and talk to people and get to know them and talk consent. ♡ \;\n\nQ: Can I par tner dance? \;\nA: Yes\, the music will be curated to always be a sw eet time in partnered connection. ♡ \;\n\nQ: What will the music b e like? \;\nA: It will be extremely focused on what many of us call "danceable" music that feels danceable not just for solo dancing but ALS O for partner dancing. But without long gaps of silence between the song s\, so it'll feel like a constant dark and sexy dream. We will play a go od dose of downtempo/slow music to help you relax into your body\, but t here will also be a variety. ♡ \;\n\nQ: What is OH MY GOTH? \; \nA: OH MY GOTH is the event that already happens at Sanctuary from 8PM TO CLOSE. It's primarily a play party\, not primarily a dance party\, bu t you can definitely just hangout and dance there. It starts immediately after THE SUMMONING is over. I've been there multiple times and it's be en remarkably chill in my experiences\, pretty much just a goth club in the main social area\, with a few couples or groups getting frisky at an y given time\, other than the designated areas where that's the focus. I n other words\, it didn't feel overstimulating to me\, personally. That' s just my minimal experiences. Be sure to ask the OH MY GOTH hosts about their rules. \;♡ \;\nQ: How much extra $ is OH MY GOTH? \ ;\nA: OH MY GOTH is no extra cost. ♡ \;\nQ: Will there be nudity a llowed? \;\nA: Tops on or off is fine. No bottomless nudity allowed at THE SUMMONING\, but you can stay after our event is over\, and enjoy OH MY GOTH as a gothic kink party where bottomless nudity is an option. Be sure to ask the OH MY GOTH hosts about their rules. ♡ \; URL;VALUE=URI:https://pdxsanctuary.com/events/fusion-dance-the-summoning / UID:urn:uuid:3b1592a7-d5f9-4315-96e9-90b9a06f80ce STATUS:CONFIRMED ORGANIZER: DTSTAMP:20260501T121325Z DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251019T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20251019T200000 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
