Gina first experienced ecstatic dance in late 2018 and It was life changing. Having always loved dancing, yet not having places that felt good to do it besides the beloved drum circle she attends, Ecstatic Dance opened up a whole new world of expression, playfulness, and creativity for her and she hasn’t stopped dancing since.
Gina encourages us to be the flow and express the truth that is moving within us … to feel our feelings, to love from our hearts, and to move our bodies in sacred aliveness. This is the vision and intention she brings for all of us!
Gina’s music mix will bring us into our bodies and give us all a permission slip to feel and express in a safe place.
The music will be filled with layers of rhythms and energies to help us tap in and expand our own sacred aliveness, consciousness, and joy.
Healing can be fun! Ecstatic dance is very much proof of this. We all could use a little *or a lot* more fun! So let’s dance!
Doors open at 6:15

Gina Maray is on a mission to remind us of the Sacred Light that lives inside each of us. This light connects us with the all-ness of creation and with our own worth and value. Through remembering this sacred aliveness that is here within and around us, we gain a greater ability to live an empowered life.
Gina is a big HECK YES! to sharing all the things she knows of that can help us bring more joy, aliveness and beauty to our experience in this precious life of ours.
She does this through her work as an artist, as well as through touch as a professional cuddler, and through sharing her own insights, spiritual ideas, and lessons learned in her YouTube and Substack videos and writings. She is also now sharing through a daily conscious music playlist journey on Substack.
Gina LOVES chanting and drumming at kirtan’s, dancing like a wild one at ecstatic dances and conscious music festivals, and doing contact improv (which she’ll introduce more about during our opening circle!).
Sharing spiritual ideas, Gina embodies positive energy and an inspired enthusiasm for life. In her art, she weaves together bold colors, spiritual themes, symbolism, love, and the power of intention and attention. With a unique technique, Gina has recently created a way to infuse the main message of her art and her mission in life into each new piece of original art she is making.
She pours her passion and creativity into all her offerings with love and is on a mission to be here on the planet taking up space without apology, embodied and inspired, both living in and beaming out the energies of love, joy, playfulness, creativity, connection and helping those energies catch fire and spread.
