About this Event

Equinox Sarasota Ecstatic Dance at The Bazaar on Apricot and Lime

Step into the rhythm of renewal this Equinox.

Together, we’ll honor balance, joy, and connection through movement, music, and mindful community. This is your space to release the old and welcome the new — surrounded by supportive locals ready to move forward together.

We’ll begin in the outdoor courtyard with grounding yoga led by Joshua Redmond (Natrona Yoga & Flobucha), helping you open your body to fresh energy and align with the season’s natural renewal. From there, flow into a heart-opening Ecstatic Dance journey guided by Kelly Atkins (DJ Kat) — founder of Ecstatic Dance Sarasota and an internationally recognized movement facilitator.

As the music builds and bodies move, the courtyard transforms into a living altar of expression — a sacred yet playful space for all ages and abilities to explore freedom, presence, and connection.

After the dance, stay and celebrate the community heartbeat — enjoy local vendors, artisan markets, special equinox menus from , and a vibrant network of artists, makers, and movers coming together to welcome new beginnings.


Come as you are, leave lighter.
