The air in the practice room tastes of wood polish and anticipation. Rhys, your dance leader, cues a song with a dark, hypnotic beat. Without a word, he lowers himself to the floor, lying on his back, his dark eyes fixed on you. The tension coils as you move forward, stepping over him, your legs framing his torso. You turn your back, presenting the line of your body to his gaze. A single spotlight catches the sheen of sweat on his corded forearms. His hands rise, palms hot and firm on your thighs, guiding you into the first, deliberate sway of a dance that feels less like rehearsal and more like a ritual.
