Join us for what will be the last dance of the summer.
Still presence
Undoing
Relax and Unwind
Just be
I invite you to show up how you are.
Ecstatic dance offers a space for people to let go of inhibitions, connect with themselves and others, and experience the joy of movement in its purest form. It can be a deeply transformative and liberating practice for those who engage with it regularly.
Chana as a DJ is like a sonic storyteller, weaving a rich tapestry of sound drawn from the corners of the globe. Her sets aren’t just playlists—they’re guided journeys, infused with purpose and soul.
She blends genres like electronic, Afrobeat, classical, Middle Eastern, ambient, house, and indigenous rhythms—layering textures and tempos to reflect the diversity of human experience.
Special guests SHIDO will be drumming for us.
