Ecstatic Dance

Welcome to Ecstatic Dance Norwich, a freeform, sober, barefoot dance and movement meditation in a space of respect and total acceptance for our unique expression. During an ecstatic dance we follow a wave that takes us from our busy mind and helps us drop into the body, without thought we are free, here the music takes us high, to ecstatic peaks that free the dancer and allows us to experience our natural state of ecstasy while sober; once in this elevated state, you’re guided gently back down into a restful Savasana where were integrate heart expanding experience.

Dance Guidelines

Ecstatic Dance – 6 Simple Guidelines

1. We Dance Barefoot – This allows us to connect more fully with the Ground (socks are OK) or if you have a physical condition and need dance shoes this is OK.

2. Sacred Silence – No words, communicate through dance. This makes it easier to be in a Meditative State.

3. Sober – No alcohol, drugs or plant medicines. We create our own ecstasy through the practice of Ecstatic Dance.

4. Non-Judgement – We Dance as We Are. Accept each yourself and each other as we are.

5. No thank you – No Phones, No Camera/Video, No Scents, No Expectations, No Judgements, No Shoulds, No Oughts…

6. Yes please – Love yourself and each other, allow yourself to be as you are, all emotions are welcome, use your voice to express emotion or feeling without words, respect the space, yourself and each other, love, love, love.
