Heart Hive is now officially a 501c3 organization! Instead of selling tickets, we are now accepting donations to help cover our new overhead as well as have more to properly pay talented artists and facilitators. We want Heart Hive to remain accessible for everyone, so if the new sliding scale feels out of reach, please consider volunteering for an event.
Recommended $30 **$30-$45 at door** (Children 5 and under dance for free)
VOLUNTEER CREW Connect with the team at the dance or email hellohearthive@gmail.com to learn more about volunteer work exchange opportunities for before, during, and after dances. This is a great way to make deeper connections and weave into the fabric of our dance family.

Dance Guidelines
Ecstatic Dance – 3 Simple Guidelines
1. We Dance without shoes (or: We Dance Barefoot)
This allows us to connect more fully with the Ground (socks are OK)
If you have a physical condition that you need dance shoes, then OK
2. We Dance without words (or: We Dance with Body Language)
This makes it easier to be in a Meditative State
No Verbal Instruction from the Facilitators
No Talking from the Dancers
3. We Dance as We Are
No Drugs/Alcohol, No Phones, No Camera/Video, No Scents, No Expectations, No Judgements, No Shoulds, No Oughts… Just Be Yourself; With Respect for Ourselves, the Space, and One Another.
