Meet new people and get warmed-up with a guided opening experience 7-8 PM, shake it all off with a live DJ set 8-9:30 PM, then wind-down with live acoustic music, a closing circle, and community hang time til 10:30 PM!

We gather around three things: connection, play, and dancing HARD. We are a diverse community of all ages and backgrounds. Our DJs play a wide range of dynamic, upbeat music—everything from bass and hip-hop to world and classic tracks. Whether you’re looking to dive deep and move meditatively or just sweat it out to some high-energy beats, you are welcome exactly as you are.

Dance Floor Agreements:

1. Barefoot - Put your shoes in the cubbies and free your feet!
2. Alcohol-Free - Don’t come to dance under the influence, and don’t bring substances with you. You’ll get plenty high off the vibes :)
3. Tech-Free - No snapping selfies or recording videos for the story!
4. Chit-Chat-Free - Save conversations for the Lounge, but feel free to growl, holler, or sing-a-long on the dance-floor!
5. Use consent - Always get clear verbal or eye-contact consent before making physical contact or getting into someone’s energy bubble.
6. Be YOURSELF! - ’Nuff said. ALL of you is welcome, messiness included!

Info: Through fascia-focused spiraling, RHYTHMIC drumming, percussive touch, shaking, and breath-work, our body becomes the instrument— the living drum. A resonating chamber of rhythm, memory, and movement. This somatic warmup creates nervous system freedom so you can shed shame and awaken joy.
(Doors close at 7, please arrive on time or early! If you know you’ll join for this portion of the night, please register HERE so we have a headcount) https://www.union.fit/events/yoga-soup-warmup-for-friday-night-ecstatic-dance
