✨ Ecstatic Dance, Visionary Art & Chai Lounge With DJ Slinky & MC Alice Sea +Local artists✨
Welcome to your invitation for our next monthly Saturday night Ecstatic Dance & Chai Lounge series!
This month we are offering an Art & Bass night held in the container of an Ecstatic Dance. Featuring the beautiful and juicy Bass music sounds of Dj Slinky & world fusion mix by MC Alice Sea, also showcasing local visionary artists, Hoop & Silk Fan stage Dancers!
About the music: DJ Slinky brings a deep, immersive selection of bass music drawn from years in the somatic dance festival scene—experimental, body-awakening sounds that invite free-form expression and movement. Collaborating with MC LSC, known for her shamanic, tribal house and Amazonian-inspired rhythms, their set blends percussive, hypnotic beats with modern tribal flair. Together they’ll create a dynamic, curated wave following the ecstatic dance format—beginning with downtempo, ambient textures for grounding and stretching, building gradually into a peak, high-energy dance floor experience, then gently returning to chilled beats to land and reconnect. LSC also weaves in her live vocals and flute playing, adding an organic, soulful layer to the set. The night will feature live painters and freestyle performances from hoop and silk fan dancers, creating a vibrant, open-hearted atmosphere for artistic expression. This is an alcohol-free event where all are welcome—come to dance, relax, connect, and enjoy a warm cup of chai in community.
