DANCING FRIENDS, IT’S HAPPENING AGAIN!!!…and now we’re on a roll…
Because of YOU who have danced with us before, and because of YOU, all dancers to come, EDKW is on its way to becoming a regular staple for ecstatic experience, expression and transformation through movement and music, facilitated by the region’s best DJ’s, held right here in Kitchener-Waterloo.
And so we enthusiastically welcome you to our third Ecstatic Dance of the year! Featuring, with genuine excitement, the very local and most exceptional, DrJ DJ! This is really going to be a good one, folks, there’s no doubt about it; so bring all of your selves and tell all of your friends--
LET’S DANCE!
WHAT IS ECSTATIC DANCE?
Ecstatic Dance is a freeform, conscious dance practice and sound journey. Created by the community for the community, these are intentional, co-creative containers for exploring embodiment, self- expression, catharsis, and play—all through the transformative medium of movement and music.
This is a space to be yourself, discover yourself, become yourself, and support one another in doing the same.
THESE ECSTATIC DANCES ARE:
Non-Verbal,
Sober Spaces,
And we invite you to leave your shoes at the door.
THE SCHEDULE IS:
7:30 - 8:00 pm | Doors Open
8:00 - 8:15 pm | Opening Circle
8:15 - 10:15 pm | DANCE
10:15 - 10:45 pm | Sound Bath & Integration
And THE MUSIC:
Dr J, also known as JORDAN MANDEL, has developed a reputation as a premier DJ in the Southern Ontario electronic music scene over the past decade. His mixing has provoked the envy of top-level tapestry makers, as he seamlessly weaves emotional journeys for dancefloors from Berlin to Black Rock City. He summons an eclectic constellation of music orbiting around his signature organic techno with a smattering of pop remixes to put smiles on faces while keeping hips vigorously shaking. DrJ DJ dispenses sonic medicine, with full commitment to the most immersive, highest fidelity sound systems to ensure total transmission of gut-rumbling bass, sizzling highs, and the vast spectrum in between. He has no idea whether his Gemini birth sign has any influence on the music he makes but if you’re into that kind of thing, go crazy.

TO CLOSE OUR DANCE, we welcome Christine Cardoza, who will be nurturing us with a sound bath to support our grounding and integration.
