No judgement. No choreography. **\n\n#### **✨ What is Ecstatic Dance** \n\n**Ecstatic Dance is medicine for the body, heart and spirit. **\n\nIt’s a freeform, barefoot, sober dance journey where you’re invited to move exactly as you feel — no steps, no performance, no judgement, no pressure to be anything other than yourself.\n\nIn Ecstatic Dance, we explore movement as a form of healing.\n\n- You might feel joyful and expansive\n- You might move through frustration, sadness, resistance, or release\n- You might find yourself flowing, shaking, stretching, or resting\n- You might move through many different emotions during the same dance.\n\nEverything is welcome. There is no right or wrong way to dance.\n\n#### **✨ What to Expect**\n\n- A grounding opening meditation\n- A journey through various styles of music danced as a wave of energies for example: slow and spacious, flowing, building into tribal rhythms, electronic and ecstatic peaks, then settling back down into deep calm.\n- We dance with wireless headphones for a fully immersive journey.\n- A safe, drug and alcohol free, barefoot space\n- Move, play, shake, stretch, rest, express, release, connect, transform\n\n#### **✨ Schedule **\n\n**1.45 - 2 pm** Arrive, get your headphones, settle into the space.\n\n**2 - 2.30 pm** Welcome and opening meditation.\n\n**2.30 - 4 pm** Ecstatic Dance Journey - the music builds like a wave — rising, intensifying, softening — supporting you to move through layers of energy and emotion.\n\n**4 - 4.30 pm** - Relaxing and closing circle (no pressure to say or do anything in the closing circle)\n\n#### **✨ Guidelines **\n\nThe following guidelines help ensure we keep the space safe and supportive for all:\n\n- **No talking on the dance floor** - helps us stay present in our dance.\n- **Barefoot dancing -** this is encouraged to ground.
