NOTE: Tickets can also be purchased via etransfer of the exact base ticket amount ($35, $44 or $50) to [email protected] to avoid fees! If the ticket price is out of reach, send us an email and we can discuss ways to make it affordable or offer an energy exchange.

What is Ecstatic Dance?

Ecstatic dance is a form of moving self expression that focusses on your inner state, inviting you to become more connected with how you feel moving in your body. It is a space of non judgement and non attachment, meaning you are dancing for yourself and in ways that meet your needs or desires as they arise, without needing the validation of someone or something outside of you. It is not a partner dance or has any specific moves.

Set to a musical arc that ranges significantly in speed and genre, ecstatic dance takes you on a journey up and down toward deepening your relationship with yourself. You can sit mindfully on the side, you can dance eyes closed like no one is watching, you can watch yourself dance in the mirror, you can roll around on the floor like an animal... the space is yours.

THIS EVENT IS CONSCIOUSLY SOBER

We encourage a sober space in order to keep us present with how we are feeling in the room and in our bodies.

CACAO RITUAL

Cacao is a sacred medicine that has NO mind altering/psychedelic affects and is SAFE for most to consume. It is like hot chocolate, but made with ceremonial grade cacao that respects the land, the people that produced it, and your own body. The Ritual is performed to open your heart to new experiences, yourself, and others. It is an invitation to participate as a way to help set your intention for the evening.

SOUND BATH

The night will close with a luscious sound bath by the team at Mothra Shadow Work. Soothing tones from crystal bowls, drums, vocals, gongs, chimes and the harp will bring your nervous system back down and ground you back into your body to re-enter the world. We highly recommend and encourage you stay for this part of the night.

DJ

The night's musical arc will be curated and played live by DJ Mr. Joyful. You can get excited and listen to his mixes at the link below. Be sure to check him out on Instagram.
