Join us April 4th for an epic journey with Zaphod! Together with the dancers, Zaphod spontaneously curates an ecstatic wave unique to that moment's dancefloor. The boundaries of genre give way to a multi-faceted soundscape of African and South American rhythm, world electronica, grimy glitchy bass, and heart-ful melodies aplenty. All in all, it boils down to this prayer inherent in the rhythms: May we allow the music, familiar and fresh, to dissolve the monkey mind and give the body its own voice.
Zaphod finds home in life's soundtrack: what sounds can enhance what's right here, waiting to emerge?
He was introduced to conscious dance as a baby, immersed at 19 in the Santa Cruz dance scene, and has been DJing since 2017. Before that, he spent much of his college days in the UCSC radio station, where he explored crates of vinyl from World Music to classic jazz to experimental noise. As a result, he delights in diversity and loves to experiment.

The Ecstatic Dance musical journey starts slowly for stretching and gradually quickens - taking you on a rhythmic wave where you’ll dance hard and sweat, slowing down again, ending with a gong sound bath and short meditation.
Dance how you wish, move how you feel in a free-flowing, electronic music. All are respectfully welcome in this sacred space - leave alcohol, technology, verbal communication and shoes off the inside dance floor.
*DJ set 7–9pm
*Sound Meditation closing
