Nexus Ballroom, 3845 South Higuera Street, San Luis Obispo, CA, USA
About this dance
Ecstatic dance is a form of dance in which the dancers, without direction, surrender themselves to the experience and move freely as the music takes them, leading to a journey of awakenings. The dance serves as a form of meditation, helping to release physical, mental, and spiritual blockages to reach peace. Each dance is held in a safe and sacred container by facilitators and a professional DJ. It’s a place where every person can embody their unique expression while also connecting to a collective spirit. Hosted by Adam Clark.

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.
