About this dance
NOTE: Only 30 tickets available, to ensure ample space for dance & movement.
Join Emanant Origins for an evening of world music-inspired live looping and meditative movement. Music is medicine – it can aid in healing our nervous systems, shift our brain chemistry, and invite us into deeper presence. This is a space to dance at your own pace, to feel the medicine work through your body and mind. Intentionally gentle and accessible, this gathering welcomes elders, seasoned dancers, and newcomers alike. Less intensity, all the medicine.
We will close the evening with an interactive & guided sound circle.
6:30 pm: Arrive
7:00 pm: Invocation, Music & Movement
NOTE: This is an alcohol-free / plant-friendly event.

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.
