Ecstatic Dance
Hi, I’m Jenny Severo, the founder of Ecstatic Dance Kansas City. Welcome!
After dancing for seven years in the vibrant Bay Area community, I brought the transformative gift of ecstatic dance to Kansas City in 2016. It has profoundly impacted my life, and sharing this practice with our community has been one of my greatest joys. It is a sacred honor for me to hold this space in Kansas City. We recently celebrated our 9-year anniversary, and I’m so proud of what we’ve co-created together.
We begin with a 45 minute yoga class to warm up our bodies and prepare for dance. Our two hour dance journey is facilitated by a professional DJ and follows a wave-like arc. It begins with ambient, slow-tempo music to help you warm up, then builds in energy and intensity to a peak, and finally lands softly in a meditative space. We then close with a sound healing to help you integrate the experience.
We gather at the historic Greenwood Social Hall, a special sanctuary that has become a home for our dance community.

See you on the dance floor!

Dance Guidelines
Our Universal Guidelines help create a safe and sacred space for everyone. Although each Ecstatic Dance throughout the world is unique, these guidelines connect the web of all Ecstatic Dances together as one.
~ Move as You Wish: This is a space for authentic self-expression and freeform movement.
~ No Talking on the Dance Floor once the dance begins: This creates a focused, meditative experience for all. Sounds and emotional expression are welcome: Vocalizations like laughter, cheers, and even cries are completely accepted within the space. Please take conversations outside.
No Phones: We ask that you put your phone away and be fully present. Photos and videos are not permitted.
No Shoes: Ground yourself and connect to the floor and the music.
No Substances: This is a sober, drug and alcohol-free space. We get high on the dance itself!
