Three simple guidelines
Learn more about ecstatic danceWe 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.
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.
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.
