~ Ecstatic Dance ~~
A Ceremony of Movement, Music & Magic
Ecstatic Dance is a sacred space for connection — to yourself, others, and the world around you. It's a global movement that merges rave culture with ritual, ceremony, and healing.
No booze, no shoes, no chit-chat on the dance floor — just pure, embodied self-expression.
Move however you like. No choreography. No expectations. Just the beat, your breath, and your body. Whether you're seeking liberation, inspiration, release or connection, you're welcome exactly as you are.

~ Facilitators ~
Gareth Laheen (Ecstatic Breath)
~~~ DJ & Breathwork & Ceremony Leader ~~~
Gareth Laheen is a breathwork facilitator and ecstatic dance DJ from the west of Ireland, and the founder of Ecstatic Breath — a unique fusion of conscious connected breath, movement, and music. After years immersed in Galway’s club scene, Gareth chose a path of sobriety and deeper connection, leading him to discover the liberating power of breath and conscious dance. His DJ sets draw on Celtic, ambient, tribal, and deep house influences, creating an immersive sonic field where breath and rhythm meet. His sessions are an invitation to explore your body, clear emotional blockages, and return to the clarity and aliveness of your inner self.
🌍 Based in Galway
