About this Event

Meditation meets Ecstatic Dance meets Electronic Music.

Every Friday evening we come together for a cozy & meditative dance session at b23 to shake off the tensions of every-day life & connect with our bodies in a mindful & playful way. We start in a circle, enter into our bodies, move through a carefully curated journey of electronic music, and arrive back in silence. No phones, no talking, just us and our bodies moving, feeling, releasing, connecting. Tickets are limited to ensure sufficient space for everyone.

Every body is welcome and no prior dance experience needed. Make sure to wear or bring comfy clothing and your water bottle.

“The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.”

— Alan Watts

About the facilitator

Malte Steinhoff (he/him) is a certified meditation teacher, a DJ and the co-founder of b23. Over the years he deepened his practice through retreats and through his time learning from a Yogi in an Indian ashram. The essence of his work are his own daily practice and his deep curiosity to explore the many ways we can connect with ourselves and others in the present moment. His teaching approach can be described as simple, holistic, playful & heart-centered.

About the sub-facilitator

Chris Kunze (he/him) has been a long time regular at the Friday Shake Off and a close friend to Malte and Greta for several years. The Shake Off has allowed him to explore his creative expression through movement, shed layers of shame and judgment around dancing freely, and connect to others in a brand new, playful way. Whenever Malte’s out of town, he gratefully jumps in to host a session or two. Chris has a background in improving teamwork through theater, which combined with his naturally warm and empathetic presence makes him the perfect person to hold a light-hearted and welcoming space for people to go on whatever journey they need to.
