Ecstatic Dance Charlotte - NEW ARTIST ALERT - GHOST PIPE

I’m thrilled to announce my next collaboration with DJ GHOSTPIPE on Saturday 11/22/25, as we come together to set intentions for 2025 through the transformative power of dance.

About GHOSTPIPE:

Ghost Pipe is the tribal/plant medicine music project of holistic psychotherapist and professor of psychology and counseling, Connor Wills. Based in New Jersey (USA) and southern Colombia, Ghost Pipe's music aims to support others on their spiritual journey and inspire those who feel called to ceremonial plant medicine as a potential path to their healing.

Since 2024 Ghost Pipe has been honored to share lineups in Colombia, Nicaragua, and The United States with diverse acts including Ms. Lauryn Hill, DJ Drez, Papadosio, Savej, Zion Marley, M.C. Yogi, Consider The Source, Tauk, Lily Fangz, Skysia, CRSPY, Drumspyder, Couch, Toubab Krewe, Holy River, Natalie Brooke, Sicard Hollow, The Snozzberries, and more.

Ghost Pipe's hybrid DJ and live percussion performances are always 100% unplanned and improvised but tend to lean toward tribal music from South America and West Africa, held with great respect and reverence. Folks in attendance can expect to hear improvisational sampled spoken word wisdom from experts in trauma healing, spiritual leaders past and present, and indigenous healers from around the world. This is music as a modality for healing.

Dance Workshop with Kat Harmon We’re delighted to welcome back Kat Harmon, who will lead a special movement workshop from 6:45–7:10 PM. This optional session helps participants ease into the evening by moving through fears or anxieties about dancing in community, setting the stage for deeper connection and freedom of expression.

Glow Paint and Adornment Doors open at 6:30 PM, offering time to adorn yourself with glow paint and prepare for the night. This is an opportunity to tap into your inner luminescence and express yourself through creative self-decoration. Body paint will be provided, and you’re welcome to bring additional items for adornment. Come dressed to express your wild, free, and unfiltered self!

Ceremonial Cacao We’ll offer 1 oz. ceremonial cacao for purchase starting at 6:30 PM, creating a heart-opening ritual to prepare for the evening’s journey.

Intention Setting

Please bring an altar item (or multiple) for our collective intention-setting ceremony.This month, we introduce three altar spaces for a deeper and more immersive experience:

1. Feminine Altar: Honoring intuition, nurturing, beauty, and the cycles of life.
2. Masculine Altar: Celebrating strength, logic, action, and protective energy.
3. Unity Altar: Representing oneness, peace, and the beauty of diversity. This altar also honors our ancestors and the wisdom passed down through generations.

Feel free to bring items for one or all three altars.
