Ecstatic Dance

DJ Jimmy Strat will embrace us with his somatic tunes as we dance into the longer nights, a reminder of the cycles of nature and a time for us to illuminate and embrace our shadow that reside within all of us.
James (aka ‘Jimmy Strat’) draws on a long relationship with many of the elements that comprise the heart of contemporary dance music. To James, dance is an essential and ancient practice that opens the gateway to connect to the deepest parts of our souls and to form beautiful connections with each other where we can experience oneness through movement. Running through his sets is that deep beat, connecting the gentler Melodic and Progressive  tunes, to the big energy of Deep and Tech House.”
Ecstatic Dance is a community dance ritual that is taking over the world.  There are no moves to learn, just epic tunes, amazing people, and sacred space to let go to experience authentic, deep dance!
The only rules are:
No Talking on the dance floor
No phones: this is a safe space
No alcohol: come as you are
 There will be Cacao on arrival and an altar for your prayers and an oracle deck for your questions.
Additional guidelines include: no perfumes and  no glass.
Dance, cry, laugh, meditate, stretch, twerk or melt – just move your energy! This is a safe space.
In Ecstatic Dance, the dancefloor is the focus, not the DJ. We are the dancefloor. Together we enter an empty, beautiful, low light hall; a clean wooden floor; a womb like temple space… soft music builds us into big bass bangers and crunching electro peaks, before bringing us slowly back down to silence, savasana and sound healing… and using only our movement and body language, together we create beauty. Sometimes subtle, sometimes ecstatic… everything is welcome; every body is different.
Let go of your inhibitions, let go of your mind and float free. Lose yourself and find yourself, dancing.
Doors open at 6.30pm for stretching yoga- guided and unguided. 7pm Cacao and slow deep sounds that move through into the Ecstatic Dance wave to finish up at 9pm with a sound circle.
Tickets are available through Humanitix. $25

Dance Guidelines

Ecstatic Dance – 3 Simple Guidelines
1. We Dance without shoes (or: We Dance Barefoot)
This allows us to connect more fully with the Ground (socks are OK)
If you have a physical condition that you need dance shoes, then OK
2. We Dance without words (or: We Dance with Body Language)
This makes it easier to be in a Meditative State
No Verbal Instruction from the Facilitators
No Talking from the Dancers
3. We Dance as We Are
No Drugs/Alcohol, No Phones, No Camera/Video, No Scents, No Expectations, No Judgements, No Shoulds, No Oughts… Just Be Yourself; With Respect for Ourselves, the Space, and One Another.
