We are beyond excited to welcome back the internationally celebrated Zana Prana! After captivating audiences worldwide, Zana returns to New Zealand fresh from playing at renowned festivals like Envision and touring across the Americas. Known for her visionary DJ sets, soul-healing acoustic concerts, and transformative sound journeys, Zana Prana is a powerful force in the global conscious music scene.
On this Cacao Dance Tour, Zana brings her unique fusion of sound, ritual, and heart-opening energy to guide you on a profound journey of connection and self-discovery.
Through a harmonious blend of melodic bass, celestial vocals, live instruments, and medicine-infused melodies, her music transcends the ordinary, creating a sacred space for movement, healing, and authentic expression.
This is more than just a dance—it’s an invitation to awaken your spirit, align with the rhythm of your heart, and embrace the healing power of music and movement.
Manawa is a movement rooted in creating safe spaces where people can explore and express their inner worlds through ecstatic dance and the arts. In the heart of Tāmaki Makaurau, the ancestral land of the Ngāti Whātua, Tainui, and Ngāti Pāoa peoples.
We gather to celebrate self-expression, liberation, and connection.
Ecstatic Dance is a free-form movement practice that encourages natural, authentic expression without any specific steps or routines.
Guided by the curated sound journeys of our Ecstatic Dance DJs, this practice allows the body to express emotions, energies, and feelings freely, leading with the manawa (heart) and connecting deeply with oneself and the community.
We believe in the profound healing power of self-expression. It is not only a source of personal transformation but also a guiding force that empowers individuals to live from the heart, authentically and deeply.
No dance experience is necessary; everyone is welcome, just as they are.
To ensure the safety and comfort of all participants, we adhere to strict guidelines:
No alcohol
No shoes
No phones
No talking
We also encourage everyone to wear comfortable clothes and bring a water bottle.
The Price of the ticket includes Seleno Ceremonial Cacao before the dance :)
See you on the dance floor!
Online: $35
On the door cash or bank transfer: $40
Manawa
At Manawa, we’re on a mission to build a community without judgment or competition. Instead, we want to create an environment filled with love, kindness, and respect towards oneself and others.
Our events are all about self expression through ecstatic dance and the arts connecting us to ourselves, to be guided by our hearts, we belief that each of us has a unique heartbeat, connecting us through frequency and energy.
Together, we can create a space where everyone feels valued and heard, and where the heartbeat of the people is felt in every interaction, and where we arrive at the realisation that we are one with the world and the universe.
He manawa o te tangata. The heartbeat of the people.
