Ecstatic Dance

SoulSteady is a BIPOC-led mystical journey through dance. Some call it 5Rhythms or Ecstatic Dance. We call it…

ancestral medicine for the soul.

Show up and let your body guide you – trust & surrender to the life force within. Shake, rattle, roll, sit, lie down, or just breathe.

No judgment, no limitations, just bliss.

All ages, genders, abilities, bodies, and modes of movement are welcome and honored.

SoulSteady sessions are an invitation to travel on the wings of music in a healing mystical journey.

Love (yes, that’s her name) weaves together musical masterpieces of all genres and eras to create a rich tapestry of sound (from twerking to swingin’) – uniting the dance tribe in reflection, devotion, and liberation.

SoulSteady is a safe container for movement.

There are many ways to travel and explore. Some find the music inspires them to dance while also taking moments to absorb it in stillness and meditation.

The Guidelines

1. Be present

2. The only talking is through our bodies
(ie. no talking on the dancefloor)

One needs only to be present with whatever is evoked by the journey. Meet it. Invite it in.

  • Safely feel & fully express
  • Release stuck emotion
  • Feel your aliveness, joy, and flow
  • Alchemize & embody more of your Truth
  • Experience more openness and freedom
  • Ignite your creativity
  • Embrace unconditional self-love
  • Let go of insecurities and have fun!

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.
