YOU DON’T MISS 9-5. BUT YOU MISS PEOPLE.
Being your own boss is f*cking great because you get to create your own version of freedom.
But it does get lonely at times without a little water-cooler gossip sesh, or after-work Friday drinks where you accidentally become best friends with Sandra from accounts, follow her on Instagram, and like all the pictures of her cat, Theodora.
Ne’Twerking leverages the momentum of booty-shaking to bring you a small business networking event like no other, where we connect, dance, belt out karaoke and TWERKKKK.
Yes. There’s an actual twerking workshop involved.
No crypto marketing bruhs, creepy MLM invites or painful elevator pitches.
IT’S JESS!
ORGANIZER ✏️ MC 🎤 THAT B*TCH 💅🏽
People tell me I “bring the best people together” and I “host the most amazing events”. And they aren’t wrong! This is not a humble brag! Literally everyone says the same thing so I gotta own it.
I’m the one on that stage at 11 AM hyping you up, asking the questions that get you to discover each other deeply, guaranteeing that you leave with real connections (and a couple of discovery calls booked) by 3PM.
I will make sure you have the time of your life building a business network of other girls, gays and theys who get it.
MOVEMENT MENTOR 👯♀️ EMBODIMENT BABE 💕
I’m going to help you belong to your body in a way that feels f*cking incredible.
You’ll remember what it feels like to move without overthinking every single thing.
Once upon a time, I was a wellbeing teacher (which I loved) until I burnt out. Then I realised I was here for a different kind of work, the kind that starts in our bodies and ripples into how we live, create, and connect!
I haven’t always had an easy relationship with my body though.
Growing up, I often felt at odds with it.Movement gave me a way to belong to myself, even when I didn’t have the words. And embodiment gave me the tools to witness, soften and lead myself through discomfort and into deeper care and self-love.

🍑Doors open.
Grab your name tag, pronoun sticker, and fluffy pom-pom pen.Welcome drink in hand (boozy or non-boozy, your call).🍑The POV Challenge:
We’re asking each other the most fun, non-network-y questions. Like “if you won the lottery, would you quit your business?” or “what’s your most-used emoji?”
🍑TWERK CLASS TIME with Tamara. It’s SOO fun!🍑More networking, dancing, and prizes!
When you hear THAT song come on, you run on stage, you twerk, you win a prize.🍑Special secret guests
Then we’re going full rave! Lights down. Neon up. (There may or may not be a Britney Spears megamix involved.)🍑Lights back up for wholesome family-style sit-down dinner!

BIG KISSTORY ENERGY
We’re a room of predominantly millennials and zillennials (with some elder Gen Z icons sprinkled in), so we’re throwing it back to the golden age.
Think old-skool garage bangers, classic R&B, and those 00s anthems that make you want to put your phone down and just vibe 🤌🏼👅
It’s giving nostalgia, it’s giving energy, and it’s giving “I definitely knew every word to this in 2004.”

🌈 Why do you say “Girls, Gays and Theys”?
Ne’Twerking is a space built to be safe and joyful for women, LGBTQIA+ babes, and anyone who’s ever felt like the odd one out in traditional business spaces.
Because twerking is part of the fun (and it’s physical, dance-y and personal), we’re intentional about who we invite into the room.We deserve to dance, laugh, and celebrate our body without feeling stared at or judged.
If that sounds like your vibe, you’re welcome here.
If not, respectfully, this is not the event for you.
