About this dance

We invite you to make dance your own personal journey.

It begins with guided movement and leads to a place of safe arrival—tuning into your inner impulses and allowing them to manifest as outward movements: *your* dance.

Starting with shared relaxation, we flow into movement; we move with what moves us—letting go, inviting, arriving, and sensing ourselves as a unified whole, all while remaining mindful of fellow dancers. We experience ourselves through dance as a unity of body and mind, traversing a vast landscape of rhythms.

The DJ set is created live and curated with sensitivity. The space fills with sounds, melodies, and rhythms—sometimes delicate and fluid, sometimes atmospheric and electronic, sometimes powerful and beat-driven—featuring a wide range of electronic music genres.

Typically, the set begins calmly and expansively, builds to a climax, and concludes with a meditative wind-down.

A dance journey designed to enliven and touch you—allowing you to set out and truly arrive.

Getting there

Centrally located at the Klinikum Bielefeld-Mitte, with a tram and bus stop within walking distance.
Those arriving by car can use the hospital's parking garage (open 24 hours). Otherwise, be sure to allow enough time to find a parking space on the surrounding streets.

Three simple guidelines

Learn more about ecstatic dance
1

We dance barefoot

This allows us to connect more fully with the ground. Socks are OK, and dance shoes are fine if a physical condition calls for them.

2

We dance without words

This makes it easier to be in a meditative state. No verbal instruction from the facilitators, no talking from the dancers.

3

We dance sober, as we are

No drugs or alcohol, no phones or cameras, no scents. Just be yourself, with respect for ourselves, the space and one another.
