Slow-Speed Date Night for Jewish Singles is for mature singles seeking conscious love and romantic partnership with kindred spirits, who value connection, authenticity, presence, communication, family, and shared cultural background
Due to the logistics of pairing men and women, this particular event is best best suited for straight singles. If you're interested in a queer-friendly event, or another cultural identity group, and are able to help with hosting or outreach, please get in touch with Jan.
Slow-Speed Dating is different from classic "Speed-Dating" in 3 significant ways.
* It facilitates deeper levels of communication and connection beyond superficial small talk.
* The tone and pace is mindful, grounded and deliberate rather than hectic and rushed.
* The spirit of interaction is heart-centered and relational rather than mind-centered and transactional.
This means you will leave the evening feeling nourished, open-hearted, and energized, rather than dizzy and drained because the emphasis is on quality, non-judgmental relating in the moment between two human beings for its own sake. If romantic sparks fly, that's an added bonus!
This is called "Slow-Speed" Dating because, when you are in your heart, time slows down. The heart (4th chakra) relates to the 4th dimension of time. Think about a time when you've lost yourself in kissing or passionate, dreamy lovemaking. Time no longer flows according to ordinary perception.
You will get to interact with 10 or more opposite-sex participants in short, structured "mini-dates." For each mini-date, you will be prompted to explore and share one question or embodied activity. (i.e. sharing from the heart, meditation, eye-gazing, nurturing touch, breathing, movement with awareness).
After each mini-date, you indicate your interest on a date card in getting to know one another better and connecting on a future date. If you both check "yes", you are a "mutual match"; you will be given each other's contact information. Match information is emailed out within 48 hours of the event.
The interactive heart-opening exercises during the slow-speed dating portion of the evening are consent based and designed to create opportunity for both verbal and non-verbal communication in a non-judgmental way, holistic way. So, you're not just talking heads; you are getting to relate as whole human beings.
There will also be unstructured social time following the slow-speed dating to further mix and mingle with those you'd like to connect more deeply with.
- Opening circle
- Orientation to the evening
- Group exercise for creating easy, warm initial connections
- Slow-speed dating rounds
- Group share and debrief
- Closing circle
- Unstructured time for refreshments and socializing
This event is for singles in the age range of 40s/50s
(if you're not in that age range yet would like to participate, please contact Jan.)
