Church of Dance - November '24 Edition

" " is a community-focused 'ecstatic dance' movement therapy session for people of all walks of life to come together and celebrate our bodies through freedom of expression. Ecstatic dance is often a somatic healing journey and cathartic release of stagnant energy and a powerful method to contain and cultivate energy within yourself. Assisted and guided by the intentional music and sounds of the resident DJ of the night. 'Church of Dance' is medicine for the soul.

Our mandate is simple:

-to provide a spacious dance floor

-to bring good vibes

-to provide great music

-to be accessible in the West end

DJ TITE'N'BRITE

Toronto DJ born from "Cirque Du Soul" Burning Man Camp's DJ School, Mark plays fun dancey-house music with some funky soulful disco vibes that will get you moving on the dance floor. Raging for 4 hours on the decks while bringing down the tent with his set at Cirque Du Soul at local festival "Sideburn", everyone is excited for more. From the summer beach party 'Solair Flair', to fundraisers, parties, festivals and more, TITE'N'BRITE brings the boogie.
