𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐙𝐄𝐑𝐎: Ecstatic Dance for a New Earth
Zero Alcohol • Zero Waste • Zero Colonialism
5h of dance for freedom, community, and creation!
WHAT TO EXPECT:
🌊 Five Hours of Ecstatic Dance: Come early, stay late, or slip in when the rhythm grabs your ankles.
🎧 International DJ Maxim Sol - from Russia to Bali to Cape Town: a master of spacious, textured journeys that melt armour and awaken the body. His sets can be viewed here on Youtube
🔥 Mid- Event Firedancing Workshop: A gentle invitation into movement, connection, and embodied curiosity. Open to all levels — and especially to those who always thought “I can’t dance.” Trust me, you can.
🎧 Resident DJ AYIS and DJ Brian Bergman: Earthy, soulful, sun-kissed. The kind of set that makes you forget your phone exists.

This event is not only fun, but is a fundraiser for the Greenhouse Clay Studio for single mothers in Vrygrond township.
Some gatherings are just parties. This one is a movement towards repair.
Clifton ZERO beach events dedicated to dancing differently —in reverence to the land, in honesty with ourselves, and in solidarity with women whose creativity has been historically dismissed, ignored, or exploited.
This time, every step in the sand supports the birth of a clay studio for single mothers in Vrygrond township — a space where art, healing, income, and dignity manifest. Your presence becomes part of building that future.
OUR VALUES:
🌱 Zero Waste. Respect the ocean. Bring what you need and take it all home.The kelp will thank you.
💛 Zero Alcohol. Because dancing sober is its own revolution.
🌍 Zero Colonialism: A commitment to honouring indigenous movement traditions, the land we dance on, and the communities we support through this fundraiser.
🤲 Community contribution: All income from ticket sales and donations go directly towards establishing the Greenhouse Clay Studio for single mothers in Vrygrond. You are not just attending — you are participating in a generational shift.
