Feel Moved to Dance

Release the week. Dance into the weekend.

Join us on an exhilarating journey, where music becomes a potent catalyst for exploration, creativity and self-expression - where anything feels possible, and all of us is welcome.

Following a facilitated warm-up and guided meditation, we’ll flow into a free-form ecstatic dance wave —sometimes soft, sometimes wild—always alive.

The live DJ set will build an immersive soundscape, from ambient vibes to global rhythms, deep, melodic house and techno - blending rich, emotive melodies with surging peaks, calling us to shake off physical and emotional tensions and let go into movement.

No steps to follow, no experience needed - simply be yourself.

Finally, we’ll drop into a nourishing period of deep relaxation, with a soothing crystalline sound bath, to integrate and ground the journey, before coming together in a closing circle.

After the dance, you're encouraged to stay for an informal gathering, where healthy drinks and snacks will be available, plus an alcohol-free bar.
