Feel free to dance\, stretch\, or rest as you please\, as long as everyone’s space and experience is respected. \n\n\n\nCome and move and BE as you are!This is YOUR dance — your journey of self-expression\, transformation\, and LIBERATION in the company of others BEing and doing the same. No experience necessary. This is a sober event. \n\n\n\nThe STORY\n\n\n\nEcstatic dance is a free-form dance practice where participants move to music without following specific steps. The music provides the journey\, and participants feel\, move\, and weave through the soundscapes freely. The sacred intent is to provide a liberating and joyful space for self-expression through movement in the company of others doing the same. \n\n\n\nThe dance floor is a sacred space where we join together to journey into sound\, rhythm\, movement\, and breath. \n\n\n\nAs we enter into the journey\, we commit to an intentional\, sacred\, and safe space where we are all held and honored — on the dance floor we let go and free ourselves as we drop deep into the experience\, inviting and allowing powerful transformational dance moments that can invoke a natural ecstatic state from immersing in embodied connection within ourselves and our surroundings. \n\n\n\nWhen we step onto the dance floor\, we invite and include our whole selves\, even the frightened parts that want to hideWe dance through pain and sorrowWe dance with joy until our hard edges soften and our masks fall awayWe dance\, bravely allowing the uniqueness of our authentic nature to beam throughWe meet other courageous dancers\, weaving unbreakable threads of connectionOur connections and friendships transcend the boundaries of time and spaceAnd it all melts together —Sound\, beat\, movement\, breath —into a swirling vortex we embrace as communityAs the throbbing pulse of the dance floor matches our own heartbeat\, we know\, without a doubt\, we are not alone — we are all connectedAnd we return\, again and again to the dance floor to uplift ourselves in community\, connection\, belonging\, love\, peace\, and joy! \n\n\n\nLearn more about our BEING COLLECTIVE space! \n\n\n\nThe guidelines\n\n\n\nAll are embraced and welcome.We ask that all honor and respect the shared space and one another. \n\n\n\nBe free | dance\, move\, and be still how and when you want — no judgementBe present | no phonesBe clear | no intoxicants or altering substancesBe embodied | no talking (expressive\, embodied sounds are invited!)Be consensual | if it’s not a clear yes\, it’s a no
