746. From Dance Floor to Classroom: Embodied Teaching – With Flouer Evelyn

746. From Dance Floor to Classroom: Embodied Teaching – With Flouer Evelyn

Author: Mark Walsh December 9, 2025 Duration: 50:41

I sit down with Flouer Evelyn - one of the most skilled dance teachers I know and a long-time member of our Embodiment Unlimited faculty. We dive into what actually makes a great teacher: classroom management, clarity, time-efficiency, group regulation, and how to hold a room without killing the vibe. Flouer shares how she weaves embodiment models into her partner-dance work — from centering and co-regulation to elements, U-curves, and even sneaky ETK poses.

We also explore follower/leader dynamics, nervous-system awareness in dance, working across cultures, and the real art of improvising from a solid plan. If you teach anything - dance, coaching, yoga, workshops - this one's packed with practical wisdom from someone who's taught thousands of hours worldwide.

In every session Flouer's genuine warmth and contagious excitement reflect her passion for helping people discover connection through their bodies. Originally from New York City and now based in Italy, Flouer is a partner dance instructor and embodiment coach with an MFA in dance and certifications from the University and Mentee programs at Embodiment Unlimited. She has been teaching and facilitating experiences worldwide since 2010, working throughout Europe, North & South Americas, Australia, and Asia.

She is known for weaving together compassionate presence with practical tools for navigating relationships—with the widening circles of oneself, partners, community, and spirit. Her approach emphasizes both acceptance and integrity, helping you discover authentic expression and effective boundaries while deepening the connections that matter most.
