Drop into your body, out of your head and move! ✴✴✴ Reya will be your guide for the dance as she curates a soundscape of epic tunes that will reach every part of your body and soul! ✴✴✴ WHAT IS ECSTATIC DANCE? Ecstatic Dance is a free-form movement journey and moving meditation that’s sweeping the world!! Guided by a live DJ, we flow through an epic soundscape of all genres: fast and slow, classical to psytrance, drum and bass to dub - no style is off-limits! The music moves in waves; starting gently, building to vibrant peaks, and ending in stillness. There are no steps, no judgment, no need to perform - just pure, free expression. We generally dance barefoot, without talking, in a sober, mindful space where respect and presence create a safe container. Ecstatic Dance is transformative, playful, and deeply liberating. It releases stress, boosts endorphins, and connects us to community, ourselves, and even a higher source. It can truly one of the most magical experiences life has to offer! ✴✴✴ GUIDELINES To keep the space safe and enjoyable for everyone, we follow these simple guidelines: • Speech: No chatting on the dance floor - sounding is welcome but please be considerate of others • Footware: We like to dance barefoot to ground, but if you need to wear shoes, please bring clean soft indoor shoes and be mindful of people's toes! • Boundaries /consent: Respect personal space & check for consent before dancing with someone. If you're not sure whether it's a 'yes', treat it like a 'no'. • Substances: No alcohol, drugs or other substances - this is a sober practice • Screen free: No phones or cameras during the dance - drop out of your head and into your body and give yourself the gift of switching off! ✴✴✴ WHAT SHOULD I WEAR / BRING? • Comfy clothes you can move freely in - layers are useful as you might get really hot dancing then cool down when still - the church is a big old building! • Earplugs if you're sensitive to loud music. • A journal and pen if you like to write. • Your beautiful self, a water bottle (refill available) and curiosity! ✴✴✴ Please note that tickets are non-refundable. If you give more than 24 hour's notice, you can use your credit for another dance. Contact Reya [email protected]
